What this phase means
Phase 2: researchers already know a roughly safe dose (from phase 1). This stage asks whether the treatment actually helps the condition, and watches side effects more closely.
Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
What the registry says happens
If you join, the listed intervention(s) are BIIB147, or Placebo. The registry lists allocation as randomized. In this study, researchers will learn more about the effects of BIIB147, in participants with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS.
They plan to enroll about 69 people at 2 sites. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill) plus check-ins.
