Plain English summary of protocol

Background and study aims:
RO7269162 is an experimental drug being developed for the possible treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). AD is a slowly developing disease of the brain that affects memory and other brain functions. Health Authorities have not approved RO7269162 for the treatment of AD or any other disease.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of RO7269162 on biological molecules found in the blood that are indicative of a disease (biomarker) in participants who are carriers of an altered/changed gene (mutation).

Who can participate?
People between the ages of 18 to 25 years (both inclusive)

What does the study involve?
Participants will have to be a part of this study for approximately 14 to 15 weeks. This study will have four parts:
1. Screening Period: Participants will undergo certain screening tests and/or procedures to make sure that they are eligible to take part in this study. Participants will have a screening visit up to 12 weeks before the study starts.
2. In-house Period: Participants will be admitted to the clinical site in the afternoon few days before the study medication is administered and they will have to stay in the clinic for a stipulated period of time. Participants will be allowed to go back home no earlier than 72 hours after the last study medication administration.
During this period participants will receive RO7269162 by mouth for multiple days.
3. Ambulatory visit: Participants will have to return to the clinic for an ambulatory visit on Day 12. This visit is for checking on the participants after treatment is finished.
4. Follow-up visit: Participants will have to return to the clinic 8 to 10 days after the last dosing for a final safety follow-up visit.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
Participants may not receive any health benefits from the study drug. However, the information learned in this study will help in the further development of RO7269162 and may benefit patients with AD in future.
Reasonable travel costs, food costs and other reasonable out of pocket expenses will be refunded to the participants.
Participants may experience side effects from the treatments or procedures in this study. Side effects can vary from mild to serious and may be different from person to person. As RO7269162 is a new experimental drug with limited testing in humans, not all the side effects that could occur are known at this time.
Muscle aches in the legs, headache, nausea and light-headedness are the known side effects of RO7269162.
There may be a risk in exposing an unborn child to the study treatment, and not all potential consequences are known at this time. Women and men must take precautions to avoid exposing an unborn child or a breastfed baby to the study treatment. Participant or their partner who are pregnant, currently breastfeeding or are planning to become pregnant during the study cannot take part in this study.

Study information

Study designPhase I single-centre repeated dose adaptive study
Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designNon randomised study
Study setting(s)Hospital
Study typeTreatment
Scientific titleA single-center, adaptive, repeated dose, phase I study to investigate the pharmacodynamics of RO7269162 following oral administration in presymptomatic carriers and in non-carriers of a genetic mutation from the same kindred in autosomal-dominant Alzheimer’s Disease
Study objectivesThe purpose of this study is to assess the effect of multiple doses of RO7269162 on pharmacodynamic (PD) biomarkers in carriers of a specific genetic mutation. The study also aims to characterize the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PKPD) relationships of RO7269162 in carriers of a genetic mutation.
