NCT07215403

Brief Summary

This study is being done to test a new way of delivering AB-1005 into the brain. The goal is to make the procedure easier and quicker to perform, while providing similar amounts of drug to the part of the brain that needs treatment. Technical (Stage 1) To test if the new delivery method (PIA-based infusion) can consistently deliver AB-1005 to the putamen using brain imaging by MRI. Technical (Stage 2) To confirm the new delivery method works without brain imaging by MRI, using standard operating room tools including brain imaging by CT. Safety (Stage 1 and 2) To assess the safety and tolerability of the new delivery method for AB-1005 up to 6 months after surgery

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Amount of the putamen covered by the drug at the end of infusion, assessed by MRI

    Investigate the use of PIA-based infusion for consistent intraputaminal administration of AB-1005 via CED under iMRI monitoring

    immediately after the intervention/procedure/surgery

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Duration of surgical procedure

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Change in total volumetric putaminal coverage within approximately 60-120 min from end of infusion

    immediately after the intervention/procedure/surgery

  • Accuracy of cannula tip placement at targeted first and last infusion stops in putamen

    immediately after the intervention/procedure/surgery

Study Arms (1)

Stage 1

EXPERIMENTAL

Stage 1 is aimed at evaluating the suitability of PIA-based infusion for standardized intraputaminal administration of AB-1005 via CED under iMRI monitoring.

Procedure: Prescriptive Infusion AlgorithmDrug: AB-1005

Interventions

The study intervention is comprised of the neurosurgical procedure and the bilateral intraputaminal delivery of AB-1005.

Stage 1

bilateral intraputaminal delivery of AB-1005

  • Presence of untreated or sub optimally treated depression (Beck Depression Inventory \[BDI\]-II score ≥20)
  • Current suicidal ideation as indicated by positive response to items 4 or 5 on the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C SSRS), or any history of a suicide attempt
  • Clinically significant cognitive impairment (Montreal Cognitive Assessment \[MoCA\] score \<25)
  • Presence or history of malignancy other than treated cutaneous squamous or basal cell carcinomas
  • Presence of clinically active infection, including acute or chronic scalp infection
  • Known contraindications to MRI
  • Presence or history of significant cerebrovascular or cardiovascular disease, including:
  • Stroke, transient ischemic attack, or other suspected cerebrovascular accident within 1 year prior to screening
  • Unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction within 1 year prior to screening
  • Revascularization procedure(s) within 1 year prior to screening
  • Poorly controlled hypertension, poorly controlled diabetes mellitus or prediabetes mellitus with known significant microvascular injury, or other significant cardiovascular history or risk factor
  • Known history of complications of anesthesia including difficult airway management and/or difficult endotracheal intubation, malignant hyperthermia, or other related issues that would compromise participant safety during general anesthesia (as determined by the anesthesiologist)
