About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Dose Escalation Study of Multiple Doses of BIIB014 Administered Orally in Subjects With Early Parkinson's Disease

The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety of BIIB014 and how well BIIB014 is tolerated when given at different doses to patients with early-stage Parkinson's Disease.

This study will also explore:

Read more
  • How BIIB014 is affected when given to patients with early-stage Parkinson's Disease (this will be done by measuring the levels of BIIB014 in the blood at several different times during the study), and
  • The activity of BIIB014 when given to early Parkinson's patients (this will be done by performing different Parkinson's Disease assessments and other tests during the study).

Patients who enter this study will be randomly assigned to receive either BIIB014 or a placebo but because the study is blinded, neither they nor their study doctor will know which study treatment they are taking.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • BIIB014Drug

    oral administration of BIIB014 per dose, schedule,and duration specified in protocol

  • PlaceboDrug

    Oral administration of placebo matched to BIIB014 dose level; placebo to follow same dosing schedule as BIIB014

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BIIB014 in people with Parkinson's Disease, run by Biogen at 10 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Israel, Poland, Serbia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number and proportion of subjects with adverse events (time frame: up to end of study). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jan 2009.
