About this study

Official title: Characterization of T-Cell Response in Subjects Previously Treated With JNJ-54861911 (Atabecestat)

The purpose of this study is to determine T-cell mediated inflammatory immune response in some participants previously exposed to atabecestat.

Read the detailed description

This is an exploratory Phase 0 study in participants who previously participated in studies (54861911ALZ2002 [NCT02260674], 54861911ALZ2003 [NCT02569398], or 54861911ALZ2004 [NCT02406027]) with atabecestat. In this study, participants will only have blood drawn. The primary hypotheses for this study is that adverse event of elevated liver enzymes observed in some participants is caused by a T-cell dependent inflammatory response. Participants will be monitored for adverse events and will be called 1 day after the blood draw to assess for any adverse events.

Being tested
Atabecestat

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AtabecestatDrug

    Also called JNJ-54861911

    Blood samples will be collected from participants previously treated with atabecestat.

Study groups in NCT03587376
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Participants with Elevated Liver EnzymesExperimentalBlood samples will be collected on Day 1 from participants previously treated with atabecestat and who had elevated liver enzymes while on atabecestat.
Receives: Drug: Atabecestat
Participants Without Elevated Liver EnzymesActive comparatorBlood samples will be collected on Day 1 from participants who completed at least 3 months of dosing with atabecestat and who did not have the elevated liver enzymes (adverse event) while on atabecestat.
Receives: Drug: Atabecestat

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Atabecestat-Specific T-cell Mediated Inflammatory Immune Response

    Number of Participants with Atabecestat-Specific T-cell Mediated Inflammatory Immune Response (via cluster of differentiation [CD] 4+ T-cells and CD8+ T-cells) will be determined.

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Participants T-cell Receptor (TCR) Sequencing

    Participants TCR sequencing will be performed to determine if any particular TCR repertoire is associated with a risk of developing an elevation in liver enzymes following exposure to atabecestat. Participants T-cell receptor repertoire will be sequenced via TCR sequencing techniques.

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Atabecestat in people with Alzheimer Disease, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 5 sites in 5 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 27 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Belgium, France, Germany, Spain, 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

Number of Participants with Atabecestat-Specific T-cell Mediated Inflammatory Immune Response (time frame: Day 1). 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 27 Apr 2025.
