About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, 2-Period, 2-Sequence Crossover Study to Explore Pharmacodynamic Effects of BIIB104 on Brain Circuitry Using BOLD Functional MRI and Arterial Spin Labeling in Healthy Participants

The primary objective of the study is to explore the pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of BIIB104 on brain circuitry associated with emotional processing in healthy participants.

The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BIIB104 in healthy participants; To further explore the PD effects of BIIB104 on brain circuitry associated with emotional processing in healthy participants; To explore the PD effects of BIIB104 on brain circuitry associated with working memory in healthy participants using the N-Back; To explore the PD effects of BIIB104 on regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) in healthy participants; To explore the PD effects of BIIB104 on brain circuitry during resting state in healthy participants.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Faces Versus Shapes Emotional Faces Task Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Contrasts to Day 4 Within a Priori Defined Regions of Interest

    Measured: Baseline, Day 4

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death, in the view of the Investigator, places the participant at immediate risk of death (a life-threatening event), however, this does not include an event that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have caused death; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect or is a medically important event.

    Measured: Screening up to Day 44

  2. Change From Baseline in Emotional Faces Task Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Contrasts to Day 1 and Day 4 Within a Priori Defined Regions of Interest

    Measured: Baseline, Day 1, Day 4

  3. Change From Baseline in N-Back Task Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Contrasts to Day 1 and Day 4 Within a Priori Defined Regions of Interest

    Measured: Baseline, Day 1, Day 4

  4. Change From Baseline in Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL)-Derived Maps of Regional Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF) at Rest to Day 1 and Day 4 Within a Priori Defined Regions of Interest

    Measured: Baseline, Day 1, Day 4

  5. Change From Baseline in Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)-Derived Intrinsic Functional Connectivity Networks at Rest to Day 1 and Day 4 Within a Priori Defined Regions of Interest

    Measured: Baseline, Day 1, Day 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIIB104 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Biogen at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 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 22 Mar 2021. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Change From Baseline in Faces Versus Shapes Emotional Faces Task Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Contrasts to Day 4 Within a Priori Defined Regions of Interest (time frame: Baseline, Day 4). 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 22 Mar 2021.
