Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 50 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Clinical diagnosis of probable mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) by National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke and the Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Association Alzheimer's (NINCDS-ADRDA) criteria.
  • A Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 16 to 28, inclusive, at Screening. Subjects recruited to the first 2 SAD cohorts should have an MMSE of > 22.
  • Where symptomatic treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is clinically indicated, subjects must be on stable treatment (e.g., with an anticholinesterase inhibitor [AChEI] and/or memantine) for at least 12 weeks prior to the Screening visit.
  • On stable doses of all other prescribed medications for at least 4 weeks prior to the screening visit.

Who cannot join

  • Any neurological condition that could be contributing to cognitive impairment above and beyond that caused by the subject's Alzheimer's disease (AD).
  • Any psychiatric diagnosis or symptoms, e.g hallucinations, major depression, or delusions, that could interfere with assessment of cognition in the subject.
  • History of transient ischemic attack (TIA), stroke, or seizures within 12 months of Screening.
  • Evidence of infection, tumor, stroke or other clinically significant lesions that could indicate a dementia diagnosis other than AD on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at Screening.
  • Other significant pathological findings on brain MRI at Screening, including but not limited to: more than 3 micro-hemorrhages, single macro-hemorrhage; evidence of vasogenic edema; evidence of cerebral contusion, encephalomalacia, aneurysms, vascular malformations or space occupying lesions.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Combined Single Ascending Dose and Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Assess Safety, Tolerability, Immunogenicity, Pharmacodynamic Response, and Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous Infusions of BAN2401 in Subjects With Mild to Moderate Alzheimer?s Disease

The purpose of this study will be to evaluate the safety and tolerability of lecanemab at sequentially ascending doses in subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Read the detailed description

This will be a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study in subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The study will comprise separate single dose ascending (SAD) and multiple dose ascending (MAD) parts designed to allow the MAD part to be initiated while the SAD part is ongoing.

Being tested
Active Comparator: A, Placebo Comparator B, Active Comparator B, Placebo Comparator A

  • Placebo Comparator BDrug

    Placebo Matching Placebo Infusion

  • Active Comparator BDrug

    Also called BAN2401

    Lecanemab Multiple Dose Ascending Intravenous infusions once every 4 weeks at sequentially ascending doses (dose levels: 0.3, 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg)

  • Placebo Comparator ADrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Single Ascending Dose (SAD)

    To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single intravenous (i.v.) infusions of lecanemab at sequentially ascending doses in subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD)

    Measured: baseline to Day 180 post-dose

  2. Multiple Ascending Dose(MAD)

    To evaluate the safety and tolerability of 4 monthly i.v. infusions of lecanemab at sequentially ascending doses in subjects with AD

    Measured: baseline to Day 264 post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Active Comparator: A and Active Comparator B in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by Eisai Inc. at 8 sites 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 23 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Single Ascending Dose (SAD) (time frame: baseline to Day 180 post-dose). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01230853, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 23 Nov 2020.
