What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including serious adverse events (SAEs), and discontinuations due to TEAEs

    Time frame: Up to 20 days

  2. PK parameter: Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of DNL201 in plasma

    Time frame: Up to 10 days

  3. PK parameter: Time to maximum observed concentration (Tmax) of DNL201 in plasma

    Time frame: Up to 10 days

  4. PK parameter: The area under the concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-∞) of DNL201 in plasma (single dosing only)

    Time frame: Up to 10 days

  5. PK parameter: Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of last quantifiable concentration (AUC[0-last]) of DNL201 in plasma

    Time frame: Up to 10 days

  6. PK parameter: The area under the concentration-time curve over a dosing interval (AUC0-τ) of DNL201 in plasma (multiple dosing only)

    Time frame: Up to 10 days

  7. PK parameter: Apparent terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) of DNL201 in plasma

    Time frame: Up to 10 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Concentration of DNL201 in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) (following selected single and multiple doses)

    Time frame: Up to 10 days

  2. The pharmacodynamics of DNL201 in whole blood as measured by the percent change from baseline in pS935

    Time frame: Up to 10 days
