About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Parallel-Arm Study to Assess the Absolute Bioavailability of a Single, Fixed Subcutaneous Dose of Aducanumab (BIIB037) Compared to a Single, Weight-Based Intravenous Dose in Healthy Volunteers

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the absolute bioavailability of a single, fixed subcutaneous (SC) dose of aducanumab compared with a single weight-based intravenous (IV) dose of aducanumab in healthy volunteers.

The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the safety and tolerability of aducanumab administered SC in healthy volunteers and to characterize additional pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of a single, fixed SC dose of aducanumab and a weight-based IV dose of aducanumab in healthy volunteers.

Being tested
Aducanumab

What participants receive

    Also called BIIB037

Study groups in NCT04924140
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Aducanumab IntravenousExperimentalParticipants will receive aducanumab as body weight-based dose, via IV infusion for approximately 1 hour on Day 1.
Receives: Drug: Aducanumab
Aducanumab SubcutaneousExperimentalParticipants will receive aducanumab as fixed dose, via SC injection on Day 1.
Receives: Drug: Aducanumab

What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Infinity (AUCinf) of Aducanumab

    Measured: Up to Day 85

  2. Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of Aducanumab

    Measured: Up to Day 85

Secondary outcomes (9)
  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 AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. 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); 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: Up to Day 85

  2. Number of Participants with Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Vital Signs

    Measured: Up to Day 85

  3. Number of Participants with Clinically Significant Abnormalities in 12-Lead Electrocardiograms (ECGs)

    Measured: Up to Day 85

  4. Number of Participants with Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Laboratory Assessments

    Measured: Up to Day 85

  5. Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Time of the Last Measurable Concentration (AUClast) of Aducanumab

    Measured: Up to Day 85

  6. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax) for Aducanumab Administered SC

    Measured: Up to Day 85

  7. Elimination Half-Life (t½) of Aducanumab

    Measured: Up to Day 85

  8. Volume of Distribution (Vd) or Apparent Volume of Distribution (V/F) of Aducanumab

    Measured: Up to Day 85

  9. Clearance (CL) or Apparent Clearance (CL/F) of Aducanumab

    Measured: Up to Day 85

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Aducanumab in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Biogen at 2 sites in United States.

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 8 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 13 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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?

Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to Infinity (AUCinf) of Aducanumab (time frame: Up to Day 85). 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 13 Apr 2023.
