Trial Outcomes & Findings for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Study of Brain Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) Receptor Occupancy After Telcagepant Administration (MK-0974-067) (NCT NCT01315847)

NCT ID: NCT01315847

Last Updated: 2019-04-02

Results Overview

Any AEs occurring among participants (all were healthy subjects) in Part I of study were recorded. An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function or chemistry of the body temporally associated with study drug administration, whether or not considered related to the study drug. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which was temporally associated with the administration of the study drug, was also an AE.

Participant Flow

Due to protocol amendment study Part II was not conducted. One subject who started in Part I, Period 2 had not participated in Part I, Period 1. Therefore, the cumulative total number who started Part I (including those starting in Period 1 and 2) is 6. Study participants were included in either Part I or Part III; none were included in both parts.

Telcagepant and [11C]MK-4232 (Part I): Healthy Participants
Baseline positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of the brain using \[11C\]MK-4232 tracer (\~300 megabecquerel \[MBq\]) was performed in healthy participants; this PET data served as the baseline for both Period 1 and 2 of Part I. Subsequently in study Part I, Period 1 the healthy participants received a single 1120 mg dose of telcagepant followed by PET imaging of brain with \[11C\]MK-4232 tracer (\~300 MBq) beginning \~3 hours post telcagepant dose. In Part I, Period 2 the healthy participants received a single 140 mg dose of telcagepant followed by PET imaging of brain with \[11C\]MK-4232 tracer (\~300 MBq) beginning \~2 hours post telcagepant dose.
Telcagepant and [11C]MK-4232 (Part III): Migraineurs
In study Part III, Period 1 baseline PET imaging of the brain using \[11C\]MK-4232 tracer (\~300 MBq) was performed in participants with migraine during a migraine attack (ictal phase). Later in Part III, Period 1 the participants with an ongoing migraine attack (ictal phase) received a single 140 mg dose of telcagepant followed by PET imaging of brain with \[11C\]MK-4232 tracer (\~300 MBq) beginning \~2 hours post telcagepant dose. In Part III, Period 2 baseline PET imaging of the brain using \[11C\]MK-4232 tracer (\~300 MBq) was performed in participants with migraine, however, without a migraine attack ongoing (interictal phase). Later in Part III, Period 2 participants with migraine without a migraine attack ongoing (interictal phase) received a single 140 mg dose of telcagepant followed by PET imaging of brain with \[11C\]MK-4232 tracer (\~300 MBq) beginning \~2 hours post telcagepant dose.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Part I Baseline, at ~0-90 minutes after [11C]MK-4232 dose; and Part I, Period 1 post telcagepant, at ~0-90 minutes after [11C]MK-4232 dose

Population: Participants who received both telcagepant and \[11C\]MK-4232 during Part I, Period 1 of study, had evaluable data and were compliant with the the study protocol

Brain CGRP RO post telcagepant was determined by change in \[11C\]MK-4232 PET tracer biokinetics at baseline and post telcagepant administration. Using PET brain images acquired over \~0-90 minutes after \[11C\]MK-4232 dose, regions of interest (ROIs) were drawn throughout cerebral cortex and white matter, striatum, thalamus, cerebellum and pons. The ROIs were projected onto all frames of the dynamic PET scans in order to generate \[11C\]MK-4232 tissue time-activity curves (TACs). Serial arterial blood samples for measurement of plasma radioactivity and \[11C\]MK-4232 concentrations were collected during the PET scans. These samples provided the arterial input function for a two-tissue compartmental model of \[11C\]MK-4232 tracer biokinetics. Total volume of distribution (VT), an index of receptor density, was estimated by fitting the two-tissue compartmental model to the PET \[11C\]MK-4232 TACs. Change in VT between baseline and post telcagepant PET studies was used to quantify the brain CGRP RO.
