Study to Explore the Onset of Efficacy on Magnetic Resonance Disease Activity of BG00012 (Dimethyl Fumarate) in Patients With Relapsing remitTing Multiple Sclerosis (PROMPT)

December 23, 2015 updated by: Biogen

Phase IV, Interventional, multicenteR, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study tO Explore the Onset of Efficacy on Magnetic Resonance Disease Activity of BG00012 (Dimethyl Fumarate) in Patients With relapsingremitTing Multiple Sclerosis

The primary objective of the study is to assess the early efficacy of treatment with BG00012 (dimethyl fumarate) 240 mg twice daily (BID) in the brain of newly diagnosed and naive-to-treatment patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The Secondary objectives are to establish the time course of the beneficial effect of BG00012 240 mg BID over 24 weeks and to evaluate the safety of BG00012.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 50 years (ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Mean number of cumulative combined unique active (CUA) lesions (registered from week 4 to 24)
Time Frame: Week 24
Week 24

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
