Who may be able to join

  • Male or female and age between 55 and 90 years, inclusive.

  • The subject must be on a stable dose of donepezil or rivastigmine for at least 1 month prior to study drug administration.
  • The subject has had a computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging scan, interpreted by a radiologist or neurologist, within 36 months prior to randomization and after the subject met NINCDS/ADRDA diagnostic criteria for probable AD. The scan must not show evidence for an alternative etiology for dementia.

Who cannot join

  • Receipt of an investigational product within 6 weeks prior to study drug administration.

About this study

Official title: A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of ABT-126 in Subjects With Alzheimer's Disease on Stable Doses of Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors

This study will investigate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ABT-126 in up to 20 male and female subjects, between 55 to 90 years of age with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease on stable doses of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.

Read the detailed description

This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, multiple-dose, parallel group, multicenter study. Up to 20 male and female subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) who are taking stable doses of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors will be enrolled in this study. The study will be conducted in up to four sites. Within 28 days prior to study drug administration, subjects will be screened based on National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke/Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Association (NINCDS/ADRDA) criteria for probable AD, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Modified Hachinski Ischemic Scale (MHIS) scores, medical history, physical examination, neurological examination, vital signs, ECG, laboratory tests and response to Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS).

Subjects will be divided into two groups of 10 subjects each. In each group, 8 subjects will receive ABT-126 and two subjects will receive matching placebo. Group 1 will be administered Dose 1 of ABT-126 or placebo. Group 2 will be administered Dose 2 ABT-126 or placebo. All doses will be administered once daily in the morning for 10 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability assessments

    vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG), neurological examination, laboratory tests, number of subjects with adverse events, Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)

    Measured: From Day 1 through Day 17

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pharmacokinetic evaluation profile

    Area under curve (AUC), maximum concentration(Cmax), minimum concetration (Cmin), time to peak concentration (Tmax), half-life(t1/2), clearance (CL/F)

    Measured: Blood collection prior to, and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 24, 72, 120, and 168 hours after dosing on Day 10

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ABT-126 in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by Abbott at 3 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 6 inclusion and 4 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 2 May 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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. 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?

Safety and tolerability assessments (time frame: From Day 1 through Day 17). 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 2 May 2012.
