Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This single-center, randomized open-label, single-dose, parallel group study will investigate the relative bioavailability of a high concentration liquid formulation (HCLF) versus the reference lyophilized formulation (LyoF) of gantenerumab. Healthy volunteers will be randomized 1:1 to receive single-dose gantenerumab by subcutaneous injection.

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
40 Years to 70 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:
All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Yes
Inclusion Criteria:
  • Healthy male and female subjects, 40 to 70 years of age inclusive. Healthy status is defined by absence of evidence any active or chronic disease following a detailed medical and surgical history, a complete physical examination including vital signs, 12-lead ECG, hematology, blood chemistry, coagulation, serology and urinalysis. Some medical conditions are allowed that are well controlled by single stable medication

  • A BMI between 18.0 to 30.0 kg/m2 inclusive

  • Use of highly effective contraception until 6 months after study follow-up visit

  • Agree not to donate blood or blood products for transfusion for the duration of the study and for one year after their dosing

Exclusion Criteria:
  • Suspicion of alcohol or drugs abuse addiction using DSM IV criteria

  • Regular smoker (> 5 cigarettes, > 1 pipeful or > 1 cigar per day), tobacco users and subjects on nicotine replacement therapy

  • Prior administration of gantenerumab

  • Participation in an investigational drug or device study within 60 days before dosing

  • Donation of blood over 500 mL within three months before dosing

  • Pregnancy or breast-feeding

  • Any abnormal skin conditions or potentially obscuring tattoos, pigmentation or lesions in the area intended for subcutaneous injection

  • Any familial history of early onset Alzheimer's disease

  • Claustrophobia, presence of pacemakers, aneurysm clips, artificial heart valves, ear implants, or foreign metal objects in the eyes, skin or body which would contraindicate an MRI scan
