  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Individuals in Groups 1, 2, and 3, described below, will be participants in the longitudinal studies of memory and aging at the Washington University Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (WU-ADRC).

At the beginning of the study they must be between 45 and 90 years of age and if a female of childbearing potential, not be breastfeeding, test negative for pregnancy, and be using a medically accepted form of birth control at the time of the infusion and for 6 months afterward. Subjects must also meet the criteria below for each study group
  • Group 1, Mild dementia of Alzheimer's type (DAT):
  • Have mild DAT, as determined by Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) of 0.5 or 1
  • Have florbetapir PET imaging findings consistent with underlying AD pathology.
  • Group 2, Older Adult Controls with Possible AD Pathology:
  • Have no cognitive impairment as indicated by a CDR rating of 0. Have possible AD pathology, as determined by florbetapir PET imaging.

Who cannot join

  • Have previously completed or withdrawn from this study or any other study investigating solanezumab
  • Does not have good venous access, such that intravenous drug delivery or multiple blood draws would be precluded
  • Has allergies to humanized monoclonal antibodies
  • Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), clinically significant multiple or severe drug allergies, or severe posttreatment hypersensitivity reactions (including, but not limited to, erythema multiforme major, linear IgA dermatosis, toxic epidermal necrolysis, or exfoliative dermatitis)
  • Has a history of chronic alcohol or drug abuse/dependence
  • Is clinically judged by the investigator to be at serious risk for suicide
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Has a recent (within 6 months before screening) or current laboratory result (if available) indicating a clinically significant laboratory abnormality
  • Has Electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities obtained at screening that, in the opinion of the investigator, are clinically significant with regard to the subject's participation in the study. Bazett's corrected QT [QTcB] interval must be evaluated and must not exceed >458 msec in males or >474 msec in females
  • At screening, has alanine transaminase (ALT/SGPT) values greater than or equal to 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) of the performing laboratory, aspartate transaminase (AST/SGOT) values greater than or equal to 3 times the ULN, or total bilirubin values greater than or equal to 2 times the ULN
  • Has had IgG therapy (sometimes called gamma globulin therapy) within the last year or previous participation in any other study investigating active immunization against Aβ
  • Requires treatment with other monoclonal antibodies

    Measured: Baseline (pre-dose); 30 minutes; 24 hours; 7, 28, 56 and 112 days post-dose

  2. Mean change in plasma levels of Aβ1-40 species after solanezumab infusion

    Measured: Baseline (pre-dose); 30 minutes; 24 hours; 7, 28, 56 and 112 days post-dose

  3. Mean change in plasma levels of modified Aβ species after solanezumab infusion

    Measured: Baseline (pre-dose); 30 minutes; 24 hours; 7, 28, 56 and 112 days post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing solanezumab in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean change from baseline up to 112 days post drug administration in plasma levels of Aβ fragment-2 in (Group 1) and (Group 3) (time frame: Baseline up to 112 days post drug administration). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Sep 2012.
