Trial Review

Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria

* Pregnant or breastfeeding
* Inability to tolerate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures or contraindication to MRI
* Contraindications to both PET imaging and lumbar dural puncture (must be able to undergo at least one of these procedures to be eligible)
* Residence in a skilled nursing facility
* Any serious medical condition or abnormality in clinical laboratory tests that remains abnormal on retest and, in the investigator's judgment, precludes the patient's safe participation in and completion of the study, or bias the assessment of the clinical or mental status of the participant to a significant degree
* Any evidence of a condition other than AD that may affect cognition
* Alcohol or substance abuse within the past 2 years
* Use of any experimental therapy within 90 days or 5 half-lives prior to screening, whichever is greater and any passive immunotherapy (immunoglobulin) against tau, except use of RO7105705 in Genentech Study GN39058, as long as the last dose was at least 90 days prior to screening
* Use of any passive immunotherapy (immunoglobulin) against Aß, unless the last dose was at least 1 year prior to screening and any active immunotherapy (vaccine) that is under evaluation to prevent or postpone cognitive decline
* Any previous treatment with medications specifically intended to treat Parkinsonian symptoms or any other neurodegenerative disorder within 1 year of screening
* Systemic immunosuppressive therapy within 12 months of screening through the entire study period
* Typical antipsychotic or neuroleptic medication within 6 months of screening
* Daily treatment with any of the following classes of medication, except for intermittent short-term use, which is permitted except within 2 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to any COA: atypical antipsychotics, opiates or opioids, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, hypnotics, or any medication with clinically significant centrally-acting antihistamine or anticholinergic activity

Summary
Brief summary
This was a phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Semorinemab in participants with prodromal to mild Alzheimer's disease. An optional 96-week open-label extension period was available to participants who completed the double-blind treatment period and who, in the judgment of the investigator, would potentially benefit from open-label Semorinemab treatment.
