9Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Part 2: Cohorts D1, D2: Open-LabelExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants who complete Cohorts D1 and D2 will have a blinded Loading Dose Period, during which those who received placebo in Part 1 will receive BIIB105 Dose 4, IT, as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, while those who received BIIB105 in Part 1 will receive 2 loading doses of BIIB105 Dose 4, IT, on Days 1 and one later day, and placebo on Day 15. After the blinded Loading Dose Period, participants will receive BIIB105 Dose 4 as twenty-five maintenance doses on twenty-five later days.
Group II: Part 2: Cohorts A-C2: Open-LabelExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants who complete Cohorts A, B, C1, and C2 will receive BIIB105 Dose 3, IT, as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by twenty-five maintenance doses on twenty-five later days.
Group III: Part 1: Cohort D2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with polyQ-ALS will receive BIIB105 Dose 4, IT, as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by five maintenance doses on five later days.
Group IV: Part 1: Cohort D1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with ALS will receive BIIB105 Dose 4, IT, as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by five maintenance doses on five later days.
Group V: Part 1: Cohort C2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with polyQ-ALS will receive BIIB105 Dose 3, IT, as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by two maintenance doses on two later days.
Group VI: Part 1: Cohort C1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with ALS will receive BIIB105 Dose 3, IT, as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by two maintenance doses on two later days.
Group VII: Part 1: Cohort BExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with ALS will receive BIIB105 Dose 2, IT, as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by two maintenance doses on two later days.
Group VIII: Part 1: Cohort AExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with ALS will receive BIIB105 Dose 1, intrathecally (IT), as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by two maintenance doses on two later days.
Group IX: Part 1: Cohorts A-D2: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants with ALS and polyQ-ALS for Cohorts A, B, C1 and C2 will receive matching placebo to BIIB105 as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by two maintenance doses on two later days, and participants with ALS and polyQ-ALS for Cohorts D1 and D2 will receive matching placebo to BIIB105 as 3 loading doses on Day 1 and two later days, followed by five maintenance doses on five later days.
