Brief Summary:
This is a Phase 1b, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of 28 days, followed by an 18-month open-label extension, designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of DNL343 in participants with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Drug: DNL343 Drug: Placebo Phase 1

Detailed Description:
This clinical trial information was submitted voluntarily under the applicable law and, therefore, certain submission deadlines may not apply. (That is, clinical trial information for this applicable clinical trial was submitted under section 402(j)(4)(A) of the Public Health Service Act and 42 CFR 11.60 and is not subject to the deadlines established by sections 402(j)(2) and (3) of the Public Health Service Act or 42 CFR 11.24 and 11.44.).

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) throughout the double-blind period [ Time Frame: 28 Days ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. PK parameter: Maximum concentration (Cmax) of DNL343 in plasma [ Time Frame: 19 months ]

  3. PK parameter: Trough concentration (Ctrough) of DNL343 in plasma [ Time Frame: 19 months ]
  4. PK parameter: Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 hours (AUC24) of DNL343 in plasma [ Time Frame: 19 months ]
  5. Cerebrospinal fluid-to-plasma concentration ratio of DNL343 following multiple oral doses [ Time Frame: 19 months ]
