About this study
Official title: Phase 3b Open-Label, Multicenter, Safety Study of BIIB037 (Aducanumab) in Subjects With Alzheimer's Disease Who Had Previously Participated in the Aducanumab Studies 221AD103, 221AD301, 221AD302 and 221AD205
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of aducanumab over 100 weeks of treatment after a wash-out period imposed by discontinuation of feeder studies in participants who had previously received aducanumab (i.e. previously treated participants) or who had previously received placebo (i.e. treatment-naïve participants).

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
AducanumabDrug
Also called BIIB037
Administered as specified in the treatment arm.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Aducanumab | Experimental | Participants will be administered aducanumab 10 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) by intravenous (IV) infusions every four weeks (Q4W) for a duration of 100 weeks during the Core Treatment Period. Eligible participants will continue to receive aducanumab 10 mg/kg IV infusion, Q4W, for 52 weeks during the Long-Term Extension (LTE) Treatment Period. Receives: Drug: Aducanumab |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Core Treatment Period: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant/clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with use of medicinal(investigational) product, whether or not related to medicinal (investigational) product. An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, is a life-threatening event, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in significant disability/incapacity or congenital anomaly, is medically important event. TEAE or Serious TEAEs are defined as any AE that has an onset date and time that is on or after date and time of first dose of study treatment, or that has worsened after date and time of first dose of study treatment.
Measured: From the first dose of study drug to end of follow-up (up to Week 118)
Core Treatment Period: Number of Participants With AEs Leading to Treatment Discontinuation (TD) and Study Withdrawal (SW)
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 AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.
Measured: From the first dose of study drug to end of follow-up (up to Week 118)

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of aducanumab over 100 weeks of treatment after a wash-out period imposed by discontinuation of feeder studies in participants who had previously received aducanumab (i.e. previously treated participants) or who had previously received placebo (i.e. treatment-naïve participants).

Primary outcome
Core Treatment Period: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs
Time frame: From the first dose of study drug to end of follow-up (up to Week 118)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant/clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with use of medicinal(investigational) product, whether or not related to medicinal (investigational) product. An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, is a life-threatening event, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in significant disability/incapacity or congenital anomaly, is medically important event. TEAE or Serious TEAEs are defined as any AE that has an onset date and time that is on or after date and time of first dose of study treatment, or that has worsened after date and time of first dose of study treatment.
Core Treatment Period: Number of Participants With AEs Leading to Treatment Discontinuation (TD) and Study Withdrawal (SW)
Time frame: From the first dose of study drug to end of follow-up (up to Week 118)
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 AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.
Core Treatment Period: Number of Participants With Amyloid-Related Imaging Abnormality-Edema (ARIA-E)
Time frame: Up to Week 118
Number of participants diagnosed with ARIA edema are reported.
Core Treatment Period: Number of Participants With Amyloid-Related Imaging Abnormality- Hemorrhage or Superficial Siderosis (ARIA-H)

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Feb 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Core Treatment Period: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs (time frame: From the first dose of study drug to end of follow-up (up to Week 118)). The study lists 5 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 NCT04241068, 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?
