DNLI-H-001
Investigation of Safety and Tolerability of Investigational Medication
Brief description of study
This is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single and multiple doses of DNL593 in two parts followed by an optional open-label extension (OLE) period.
Part A will evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of single doses of DNL593 in healthy male and healthy female participants of nonchildbearing potential. Part B will evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of multiple doses of DNL593 in participants with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) over 25 weeks. Part B will be followed by Part C, an optional 18-month OLE period available for all participants who complete Part B.
Eligibility of study
You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:
- Conditions: Frontotemporal Dementia
-
Age: 18 years - 80 years
-
Gender: All
Key Inclusion Criteria:
Part A:
- Women of non-childbearing potential (surgically sterilized or post menopausal) or men, aged ≥18 to ≤ 55 years
- BMI of ≥ 18 to ≤ 32 kg/m²
- When engaging in sex with a woman of child bearing potential, two forms of birth control are required
Part B:
- Women of non-childbearing potential (surgically sterilized or post menopausal) or men, aged ≥18 to ≤ 80 years. Women who are of childbearing potential but on highly effective, low user dependent contraceptive methods will be allowed.
- BMI of ≥ 18 to ≤ 32 kg/m²
- Have a Clinical Dementia Rating® plus National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center frontotemporal lobar degeneration global score ≥ 0.5
- Have confirmed granulin (GRN) mutation via genetic testing or historical records available for review by investigator
- When engaging in sex with a woman of child bearing potential, both the male participant and his female partner must use highly effective contraception
Part C:
- All participants who completed Part B of this trial are eligible for an 18-month OLE if the participant has no unresolved clinically significant TEAEs, where continued dosing may represent a risk to participant safety.
Key Exclusion Criteria:
- Have any history of clinically significant neurologic, psychiatric, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, hepatic, pancreatic, renal, metabolic, hematologic, immunologic, or allergic disease, or other major disorders
- Have a history of malignancy, except fully resected basal cell carcinoma or other malignancies at low risk of recurrence
- Have a clinically significant history of stroke, cognitive impairment due to causes other than FTD, seizure within 5 years of screening, or head trauma with loss of consciousness within 2 years of screening
- Have a positive serum pregnancy test or are currently lactating or breastfeeding
This study investigates frontotemporal dementia. The purpose is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of an investigational medication.
The study focuses on assessing how well the investigational medication is tolerated by participants and its safety profile. It also looks at how the body processes the medication.
- Who can participate: Participants aged 18 to 80 years may join if they have a BMI between 18 to 32 kg/m² and meet specific health criteria.
- Study details: Participants will receive either the investigational medication or a placebo. A placebo is an inactive substance that looks like the investigational medicine but does not contain any medicine.
- Study timelines: The study will last 25 weeks for Part B, followed by an optional 18-month extension for Part C.
