A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of ALN-APP in Patients With EOAD

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Single Ascending Dose and Open-label Multi-dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Intrathecally Administered ALN-APP in Adult Patients With Early-onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD) and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single intrathecal (IT) doses of ALN-APP in adult patients with early-onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD). Maximum treatment duration for Part A: single dose. Maximum treatment for Part B: 12 months.
