A Study to Explore Pharmacodynamic Effects of BIIB104 on Brain Circuitry in Healthy Participants

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy Volunteers
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT04068532
Lead Sponsor
Biogen
Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to explore the pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of BIIB104 on brain circuitry associated with emotional processing in healthy participants.

The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BIIB104 in healthy participants; To further explore the PD effects of BIIB104 on brain circuitry associated with emotional processing in healthy participants; To explore the PD effects of BIIB104 on brain circuitry associated with working memory in healthy participants using the N-Back; To explore the PD effects of BIIB104 on regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) in healthy participants; To explore the PD effects of BIIB104 on brain circuitry during resting state in healthy participants.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Faces Versus Shapes Emotional Faces Task Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Contrasts to Day 4 Within a Priori Defined Regions of InterestBaseline, Day 4
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Screening up to Day 44

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant 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.
