A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Multiple Dose Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of BIIB037 in Subjects With Prodromal or Mild Alzheimer's Disease
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple
doses of Aducanumab (recombinant, fully human anti-Aβ IgG1 mAb) in participants with
prodromal or mild Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The secondary objectives of this study are to
assess the effect on cerebral amyloid plaque content as measured by florbetapir-fluorine-18
(18F-AV-45F-AV-45) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, to assess the multiple dose
serum concentrations of Aducanumab and to evaluate the immunogenicity of Aducanumab after
multiple dose administration in this population.

multiple dose administration in this population.
The study consists of a placebo-controlled period to study week 54, followed by a long-term
extension to study week 518. The placebo-controlled period is conducted with a staggered,
parallel group design, with the first 3 treatment arms conducted in parallel, 2 further
treatment arms subsequently beginning in parallel, 2 additional treatment arms beginning in
parallel, and the last 2 treatment arms subsequently beginning in parallel. Qualifying
participants can enter the long-term extension period for up to 42 additional doses of active
drug for the first 3 years of LTE. Furthermore, up until the last participant in Arms 8 and 9
has had his or her last dose in the fifth year of the LTE, eligible participants will be able
to continue treatment beyond the third year of the LTE.

- Brain MRI showing evidence of acute or sub-acute micro or macrohemorrhage, greater
than 4 microhemorrhages, cortical infarct or greater than one 1 lunar infarct.
- Any contraindications to brain MRI or positron emission tomography (PET) scans.
- Negative positron emission tomography (PET) scan with any amyloid-targeting ligand
within 48 weeks of Screening.
- Clinically significant 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities.
