  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Women of non-childbearing potential and men, aged 55-85 years
  • AD diagnosis based on the 2011 National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer's Association Guidelines
  • Supportive evidence for diagnosis of AD based upon positive CSF Aβ42 test, or documented history of positive amyloid-specific PET scan

  • Availability of a person ("caregiver") who, in the investigator's judgment, has frequent and sufficient contact with the participant and is able to provide accurate information regarding the participant's cognitive and functional abilities, agrees to provide information at clinic visits that require input for scale completion, assists the participant with compliance for at-home study treatment administration, and signs the necessary consent form (note: the caregiver is not required to stay in the unit)

Who cannot join

  • Clinical history within 2 years of the screening visit or current evidence of any neurological or neurodegenerative disorder other than AD that is associated with transient or sustained alterations in cognition
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at screening (or within 1 year of screening visit) consistent with any neurological or neurodegenerative disorder other than AD that is associated with transient or sustained alterations in cognition

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

  2. Number of Subjects with clinically significant neurological examination abnormalities

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

  3. Number of Subjects with laboratory test abnormalities

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Pharmacokinetic measure of maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of DNL747

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

  2. Pharmacokinetic measure of time to reach maximum observed plasma concentration (Tmax) of DNL747

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

  3. Pharmacokinetic measure of area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve (AUC) of DNL747

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

  4. Pharmacokinetic terminal disposition rate constant (λz) with the respective t1/2 of DNL747

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

  5. Pharmacokinetic measure of CSF concentrations of DNL747

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

  6. Pharmacodynamic measure of pS166 in PBMCs

    Measured: Randomization - Day 86

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing DNL747 in people with Alzheimer Disease, run by Denali Therapeutics Inc. at 5 sites in 2 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 7 inclusion and 2 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 26 Feb 2020. 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 United States, Netherlands. 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?

Number of Subjects with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) (time frame: Randomization - Day 86). The study lists 3 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 NCT03757325, 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 26 Feb 2020.
