Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a Phase 1, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-ascending- dose trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics of intravenous PNT001 in hospitalized patients with traumatic brain injury.

Condition or Disease	Intervention/Treatment	Phase
Traumatic Brain Injury	Biological: PNT001; Biological: %5 dextrose for infusion	Phase 1

Detailed Description

The Phase 1 study is a double-blind, multiple ascending dose trial evaluating a total of 64 patients across two dose cohort groups. Each cohort will include 32 patients (24 active; 8 placebo) who will be randomized to receive three doses of either PNT001 or placebo. Doses studied will be 1000mg and 4000mg.

Patients admitted to the trauma center who meet entrance criteria will receive their first dose of study drug within 24 hours of documented TBI. They will remain in the facility for at least 24 hours after initial dose. Baseline biomarker collection and cognitive assessments will be completed. Study medication will be administered as an IV infusion over 30 minutes (for 1000mg cohort) or 60 minutes (for 4000mg cohort) followed by collection of safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, biomarker, imaging, and cognitive data over 12 weeks. Subsequent dosing visits will be at Days 28 and 56. All visits after initial discharge will be on an outpatient basis.
