Study summary

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of single and multiple oral doses of BIIB091 in healthy participants.This study will also determine the effect of food on the single oral dose pharmacokinetic (PK).

Read the detailed description

Initial protocol recruitment and follow up was completed by 10 Jan 2020 with an optional cohort intended for completion by April 2020. Subsequently, a decision was made not to progress this optional cohort in light of COVID-19 which has resulted in a delay in reporting the actual completion date.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. 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), however, this does not include an event that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have caused death; 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.

    Time frame: Baseline up to Day 9 for SAD Cohorts; Baseline up to Day 24 for MAD Cohorts

Secondary outcomes

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