What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in Translocator Protein (TSPO) availability pre- and post-natalizumab or placebo administration
Time Frame: Baseline TSPO availability will be assessed at day -14 prior to first administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero). TSPO availability will be re-assessed post administration of natalizumab/placebo at day +57(+14 days)
|
TSPO availability assessed using Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
|
Baseline TSPO availability will be assessed at day -14 prior to first administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero). TSPO availability will be re-assessed post administration of natalizumab/placebo at day +57(+14 days)
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Correlation of TSPO availability with brain functional measures at baseline.
Time Frame: Baseline combined PET/MRI scan will be performed at day -14 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero)
|
Both TSPO availability (as measured using PET imaging) and brain functional measures (as measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy) will be measured simultaneously using a combined PET/MRI scanner.
|
Baseline combined PET/MRI scan will be performed at day -14 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero)
|
Correlation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) inflammatory markers with brain functional measures at baseline.
Time Frame: Baseline PET/MRI scan will be performed at day -14 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero). CSF collection will be performed between the time points day -14 to day -1 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero).
|
Brain functional measures assessed using functional magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy. CSF inflammatory markers: measurements of cytokine concentrations (e.g. C-reactive protein, Interleukin-6) |
Baseline PET/MRI scan will be performed at day -14 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero). CSF collection will be performed between the time points day -14 to day -1 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero).
|
Correlation of blood inflammatory markers with brain functional measures at baseline.
Time Frame: Baseline PET/MRI scan will be performed at day -14 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero). Blood collection will be performed between the time points day -14 to day -1 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero).
|
Brain functional measures assessed using functional magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Blood inflammatory markers: measurements of cytokine concentrations (e.g. C-reactive protein, Interleukin-6) |
Baseline PET/MRI scan will be performed at day -14 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero). Blood collection will be performed between the time points day -14 to day -1 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero).
|
Longitudinal change in TSPO availability correlated with longitudinal change in brain functional measures.
Time Frame: Baseline combined PET/MRI scan will be performed at day -14 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero). Repeat combined PET/MRI scan will be performed at day +57(+14 days).
|
Both TSPO availability (as measured using PET imaging) and brain functional measures (as measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy) will be measured simultaneously using a combined PET/MRI scanner.
There will be two separate scans - before and after administration of natalizumab/placebo.
|
Baseline combined PET/MRI scan will be performed at day -14 prior to administration of natalizumab/placebo (day zero). Repeat combined PET/MRI scan will be performed at day +57(+14 days).
