A Study of Trontinemab in Cognitively Unimpaired Individuals at Risk for Progression to Symptomatic Alzheimer's Disease

(PrevenTRON)

What this study is about

This study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of trontinemab in participants with biomarker evidence of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) pathology but with no cognitive or functional impairment, who are at risk for progression to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD or dementia due to AD.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Inclusion criteria

  • Body weight of 150 kg or less
  • Willingness and ability to complete all aspects of the study for the duration of the study

  • Cognitively and functionally unimpaired as defined by the protocol
  • Availability of a study partner as defined by the protocol
  • A plasma pTau217 level consistent with a high likelihood of future clinical progression

Exclusion criteria

  • Any evidence of a condition other than AD that may affect cognition, including, but not limited to, frontotemporal dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies, vascular dementia, Parkinson disease, corticobasal syndrome, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, frontotemporal lobar degeneration (other than frontotemporal dementia), Huntington disease, normal pressure hydrocephalus, seizure disorder, delirium, or hypoxia

  • History or presence of clinically significant intracranial mass
  • History of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, major depression, or bipolar disorder
  • History or presence of any stroke with clinical symptoms within the past 12 months, or documented history within the last 12 months of an acute event that is consistent, in the opinion of the PI, with a transient ischemic attack
  • At risk for suicide in the opinion of the investigator
  • Substance abuse disorder within 12 months prior to screening (nicotine use is allowed)
  • Any other medical conditions (e.g., cardiovascular, hepatic, renal disease) which are not stable and adequately controlled or which in the opinion of the investigator could affect the participant's safety in the study or interfere with the study assessments
  • Uncontrolled hypertension
  • Impaired hepatic function
  • History or presence of any clinically significant hematological diseases
  • Diagnosis of a wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
  • Abnormal thyroid function
  • Abnormally low serum levels of folic acid or vitamin B12 deficiency that are judged to be clinically significant and/or may impact cognition as per the investigator's judgment
  • Current HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C infection that has not been adequately treated in the opinion of the investigator
  • History of malignancy
  • Any previous administration of active immunotherapy (vaccine) that is being evaluated to prevent or postpone cognitive decline
  • Any previous or current use of passive immunotherapy (immunoglobulin) or other long-acting biologic agent that is approved or under evaluation or has been evaluated to prevent or postpone cognitive decline
  • Any other investigational treatment within 5 half-lives or 4 months prior to screening, whichever is longer
  • Intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous immunoglobulin therapy within 5 half-lives or 4 months prior to baseline whichever is longer
  • Anticoagulation medications at screening and there should be no plans to initiate any prior to or after randomization
  • Any treatment with cholinesterase inhibitors
  • Antipsychotic or neuroleptic medications within 3 months of screening, except as brief treatment for a non-psychiatric indication
  • Individuals with chronic use of opiates or opioids, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, or hypnotics, antidepressants or medication to treat anxiety should be on a stable dose for at least 8 weeks before baseline
  • Currently enrolled in an interventional study including those requiring investigational medicinal product (IMP) or involving any type of medical research that may interfere with study cognitive assessments
  • Residence in a skilled nursing facility such as a convalescent home or long-term care facility

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
