December 18, 2018 updated by: Biogen
Multicenter, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized, Parallel-Group, Dose-Ranging Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Intravenous Natalizumab (BG00002) in Acute Ischemic Stroke
The primary objective of the study is to assess the clinical effects of natalizumab versus placebo in acute ischemic stroke on clinical measures of functional independence and activities of daily living.
The secondary objective of the study is to explore dose and exposure response and the clinical treatment effects of natalizumab versus placebo in acute ischemic stroke on the following: measures of independence, activities of daily living, neurologic function, quality of life, cognition, and safety and tolerability

Key Exclusion Criteria:
- Lacunar or isolated brainstem or cerebellar stroke based on clinical assessment and available acute imaging studies performed under the standard of care.
- Presence of acute intracranial hemorrhage on acute brain CT or MRI. However, petechial hemorrhages of ≤1 cm are not exclusionary.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Percentage of Participants With Composite Global Measure of Functional Disability Excellent Outcome at Day 90
Time Frame: Day 90
|
The composite global measure of functional disability excellent outcome was based on a score of 0 or 1 on the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and a score of >=95 on the Barthel Index (BI).
mRS measures independence, rather than neurological function, with specific tasks pre- and post-stroke.
The scale consists of 7 grades, from 0 to 6, with 0 corresponding to no symptoms and 6 corresponding to death.
BI consists of 10 items that measure a participant's daily functioning, specifically the activities of daily living and mobility.
The items include feeding, moving from wheelchair to bed and returning, grooming, transferring to and from a toilet, bathing, walking on a level surface, going up and down stairs, dressing, and maintaining continence of bowels and bladder.
The scores for each of the items are summed to create a total score of 0 to 100.
The higher the score, the more "independent" the participant is.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Percentage of Participants With Excellent Outcome in mRS Score at Day 90
Time Frame: Day 90
|
Excellent mRS is defined as mRS score of 0 or 1. mRS measures independence, rather than neurological function, with specific tasks pre- and poststroke.
The scale consists of 7 grades, from 0 to 6, with 0 corresponding to no symptoms and 6 corresponding to death.
|
Day 90
|
Percentage of Participants With Excellent Outcome in BI Score at Day 90
Time Frame: Day 90
|
Excellent BI outcome is defined as a score of >=95.
BI consists of 10 items that measure a participant's daily functioning, specifically the activities of daily living and mobility.
The items include feeding, moving from wheelchair to bed and returning, grooming, transferring to and from a toilet, bathing, walking on a level surface, going up and down stairs, dressing, and maintaining continence of bowels and bladder.
The scores for each of the items are summed to create a total score of 0 to 100.
The higher the score, the more "independent" the participant is.
|
Day 90
|
Stroke Impact Scale-16 (SIS-16) Score Using a Repeated Measures Mixed Effects Model at Day 90
Time Frame: Day 90
|
The SIS-16 is a 16-item physical dimension instrument that was developed as a brief, stand-alone tool for measuring the physical aspects of stroke recovery.
The 16 physical aspects are rated on a 1 to 5 scale as follows: not difficult at all (5), a little difficult (4), somewhat difficult (3), very difficult (2), and could not do at all (1).
Total score range is 16 to 80, with higher scores indicating higher levels of health-related quality of life and function.
|
Day 90
|
Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) Score at Day 90
Time Frame: Day 90
|
The MoCA is a global cognitive screening test with favorable psychometric properties It screens 8 domains: visuospatial/executive, naming, memory, attention, language, abstraction, delayed recall, and orientation.
Time to administer the MoCA is approximately 10 minutes.
The total possible score is 0 to 30 points; a score of 26 or above is considered normal, <10 (severe cognitive impairment), 10-17 (moderate cognitive impairment) and >=18 (mild cognitive impairment).
|
Day 90
|
Change From Baseline in National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) Score at Day 90
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 90
|
The NIHSS is a reliable tool for rapidly evaluating the effects of acute cerebral infarction.
A trained observer rates the participant's ability to answer questions and perform activities relating to level of consciousness, language, visual-field loss, extraocular movement, motor strength, ataxia, dysarthria, sensory loss, and extinction and inattention (formerly neglect).
There are 15 items.
Total score ranges from 0 as normal to a maximum possible total severity score of 42 for all items.
Higher the score, more the severity.
A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
|
Baseline, Day 90
|
Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events (AE)
Time Frame: Baseline up to Day 90
|
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 AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.
|
Baseline up to Day 90
|
Number of Participants Experiencing Serious Adverse Events (SAE)
Time Frame: Baseline up to Day 90
|
A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, is a life-threatening event, requires inpatient hospitalization, results in a significant disability/incapacity or congenital anomaly.
|
Baseline up to Day 90
|
Percentage of Participants With Dose Response at Day 90
Time Frame: Day 90
|
Percentage of participants with dose response was evaluated in proportion of excellent outcome on mRS and BI.
