Patterns and predictors of cholinesterase inhibitor use in dementia with Lewy bodies
INTRODUCTION
Current evidence supports the use of cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) as the first-line symptomatic treatment for improving cognition in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Little is known about current prescribing patterns of ChEIs in DLB. This study aimed to identify the patterns and predictors of ChEI prescribing in patients with DLB in the United States.
METHODS
Using the TriNetX database, we identified 20,643 US patients ages 45 to 90 who were diagnosed with DLB between 2004 and 2024. We only included those with more than one documented diagnosis. Prescription data and patterns for donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine, and memantine were analyzed. We used multivariate logistic regression models to estimate the odds of ChEI prescription based on demographic factors.
RESULTS
We found that 51.9% of DLB patients were ever prescribed a ChEI, and those who were prescribed a ChEI had a greater diagnosis interval. Patients who were prescribed ChEIs were more likely to be Hispanic (odds ratio [OR] 1.36, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.15, 1.59) and reside in the Midwest (OR 1.93, 95% CI: 1.76, 2.13), while Black patients were less likely to be prescribed ChEIs (OR 0.80, 95% CI: 0.71, 0.91). Of patients prescribed ChEIs, the median time between the first and last prescription was 13.4 months (interquartile range: 1.1, 32.9), and donepezil was the most commonly prescribed (76.9%) followed by rivastigmine (35.6%) and galantamine (3.9%). Over the 20-year study period, there was a gradual increase in the rate of prescribing of ChEIs, and the prescribing frequency of individual ChEIs remained relatively stable.
CONCLUSION
Despite evidence supporting their tolerability and efficacy, ChEIs are under-prescribed in DLB patients within the United States, and there are differences in prescribing based on race, ethnicity, and region. There is a need to understand the reasons for under-prescribing ChEIs in DLB, so interventions focused on increasing use can be developed.
Highlights
Despite proven tolerability and efficacy, cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) are under-prescribed in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).
Race, ethnicity, and region significantly affected the odds of ChEI prescription.
There is a need to increase ChEI prescribing for DLB patients.
期刊介绍：
Alzheimer''s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions (TRCI) is a peer-reviewed, open access,journal from the Alzheimer''s Association®. The journal seeks to bridge the full scope of explorations between basic research on drug discovery and clinical studies, validating putative therapies for aging-related chronic brain conditions that affect cognition, motor functions, and other behavioral or clinical symptoms associated with all forms dementia and Alzheimer''s disease. The journal will publish findings from diverse domains of research and disciplines to accelerate the conversion of abstract facts into practical knowledge: specifically, to translate what is learned at the bench into bedside applications. The journal seeks to publish articles that go beyond a singular emphasis on either basic drug discovery research or clinical research. Rather, an important theme of articles will be the linkages between and among the various discrete steps in the complex continuum of therapy development. For rapid communication among a multidisciplinary research audience involving the range of therapeutic interventions, TRCI will consider only original contributions that include feature length research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, brief reports, narrative reviews, commentaries, letters, perspectives, and research news that would advance wide range of interventions to ameliorate symptoms or alter the progression of chronic neurocognitive disorders such as dementia and Alzheimer''s disease. The journal will publish on topics related to medicine, geriatrics, neuroscience, neurophysiology, neurology, psychiatry, clinical psychology, bioinformatics, pharmaco-genetics, regulatory issues, health economics, pharmacoeconomics, and public health policy as these apply to preclinical and clinical research on therapeutics.
