The study will be conducted in 2 blinded parts (Part 1 and Part 2). In Part 1, study participants who are mutation carriers will receive active donanemab and non-mutation carriers will receive placebo-donanemab for up to 18 months (76 weeks), with a minimum treatment period of 9 months. Amyloid PET scans will be conducted at screening, 9, and 18 months in Part 1. Participants who are at or below 11 CL at screening or reach complete amyloid plaque clearance as measured by florbetapir F18 PET (defined as ≤11 CL) at 9 months will initiate Part 2. Participants who are ≤11 CL at screening may delay their entry into Part 2 for up to 6 months at the discretion of the Investigator. All remaining participants will start Part 2 after completing 18 months (76 weeks) in Part 1 independent of amyloid results. Non-carriers will receive placebo in both Parts 1 and 2. In Part 2, study participants who are mutation carriers will be randomized 1:1:1:1 in a full factorial design to receive either RG6289 + placebo-donanemab (RG6289 alone group), donanemab + placebo-RG6289 (donanemab alone group), the combination of RG6289 and donanemab (combination group), or placebo-RG6289 and placebo-donanemab (placebo group). All non-carriers will be assigned to the placebo group. CDR-GS at the end of Part 1 and the amyloid level using the last completed amyloid PET scan in Part 1 will be used for stratification. All study participants will participate in a double-dummy design for the duration of Part 2 receiving both an intravenous (IV) infusion at the required interval for the donanemab or matching placebo as well as a daily oral treatment of RG6289 or matching placebo. An exploratory outcome of Part 1 is a comparison of the amyloid clearance between this ADAD cohort and historical controls using propensity score matching. The primary outcome in Part 2 is change from the start of Part 2 through the end of Part 2 in brain amyloid load in PSEN1 E280A mutation carriers as measured by amyloid PET imaging. Other endpoints will include fluid and imaging biomarkers and measures of cognition and functioning. The maximum study duration for any individual participant will be 3 years, not including the screening or follow-up periods

Part 1: Change in amyloid load as measured by centiloid (CL) [F18]Florbetapir-PET as biomarker endpoint
Evaluate the efficacy and safety of donanemab on change in amyloid load as measured by centiloid (CL) \[F18\] Florbetapir-PET in presenilin 1 (PSEN1) E280A mutation carriers (Part 1). CL calculated using \[f18\] Florbetapir PET non-partial volume corrected (regional spread function) standardized uptake value ratio cortical composite (F18 Florbetapir PET SUVR).
Time frame: Part 1: Screening, Month 9, and Month 18
Part 2: Maintenance of Low Levels of Brain Amyloid as Measured by centiloid (Cl) [F18]Florbetapir-PET Following Combined Intervention of Donanemab and RG6289
Evaluate the individual and relative efficacy and safety, as well as potential synergy, of donanemab, RG6289, and the combination of RG6289 with donanemab, to achieve and/or maintain low levels of brain amyloid as measured by centiloid (CL) \[F18\] Florbetapir-PET in asymptomatic and symptomatic PSEN1 E280A mutation carriers. CL calculated using \[F18\] Florbetapir-PET non-partial volume corrected (regional spread function) standardized uptake value ratio cortical composite (F18 Florbetapir-PET SUVR)
Time frame: Duration of Part 2 Participation (up to 18 months)
