About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Parallel Group Study to Assess the Inhibition of Brain MAO-B by RO4602522 After Repeated Dosing in Patients With Alzheimer's Disease and in Healthy Control Subjects

This open-label, multiple dose, parallel group study will assess the monoamine oxidase in the brain by in vivo positron emission tomography (PET) and safety of RO4602522 in patients with Alzheimer disease and in healthy volunteers. Patients and volunteers will receive multiple doses of RO4602522 and up to three injections of C11-L-deprenyl-D2 used in the PET.

Being tested
11C-L-deprenyl-D2, RO4602522

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in monoamine oxidase (MAO-B) enzyme activity as measured by in vivo positron emission tomography (PET)

    Measured: Days 1, 14, and between days 15 and 34

  2. Pharmacokinetics: Plasma concentration of RO4602522

    Measured: Days 1, 8, 14, and between Days 15 and 34

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Reduction of 11C-L-deprenyl-D2 tracer uptake by in vivo positron emission tomography (PET)

    Measured: Days 1, 14, and between days 15 and 34

  2. Safety: incidence of adverse events

    Measured: 35 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 11C-L-deprenyl-D2 and RO4602522 in people with Healthy Volunteer, Alzheimer's Disease, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 1 site in Sweden.

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 18 inclusion and 20 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 Nov 2016. 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 Sweden. 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?

Change in monoamine oxidase (MAO-B) enzyme activity as measured by in vivo positron emission tomography (PET) (time frame: Days 1, 14, and between days 15 and 34). 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?
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 Nov 2016.
