Brief Summary:
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of Aducanumab (recombinant, fully human anti-Aβ IgG1 mAb) in participants with prodromal or mild Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the effect on cerebral amyloid plaque content as measured by florbetapir-fluorine-18 (18F-AV-45F-AV-45) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, to assess the multiple dose serum concentrations of Aducanumab and to evaluate the immunogenicity of Aducanumab after multiple dose administration in this population.
| Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Alzheimer's Disease | Drug: Aducanumab (recombinant, fully human anti-Aβ IgG1 mAb) Drug: Placebo | Phase 1 |
The study consists of a placebo-controlled period to study week 54, followed by a long-term extension to study week 518. The placebo-controlled period is conducted with a staggered, parallel group design, with the first 3 treatment arms conducted in parallel, 2 further treatment arms subsequently beginning in parallel, 2 additional treatment arms beginning in parallel, and the last 2 treatment arms subsequently beginning in parallel. Qualifying participants can enter the long-term extension period for up to 42 additional doses of active drug for the first 3 years of LTE. Furthermore, up until the last participant in Arms 8 and 9 has had his or her last dose in the fifth year of the LTE, eligible participants will be able to continue treatment beyond the third year of the LTE.
