Phase 3 Study of MCI-186 for Treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Drug: MCI-186 in open label phase
Registration Number
NCT01492686
Lead Sponsor
Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation
Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to confirm the efficacy of 60 mg of MCI-186 via intravenous drip infusion once a day in the patients with ALS based on the changes in the revised ALS functional rating scale (ALSFRS-R) scores after 24 weeks administration in double-blind, placebo-controlled manner. The study is also to examine the safety of MCI-186 to the ALS patients.

The Modified Norris Scale is a measure of movement disorder for patients with ALS. 0=worst; 102=best

Change From Baseline in ALS Assessment Questionnaire (40 Items) (ALSAQ40) in Full Analysis Set (FAS) Population at 24 Weeksbaseline and 24 weeks
