Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) or Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
up to 10 months

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; lifethreatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.

Levels of Amyloid (A)-beta1-40 in Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) After Treatment at the Intended Target Dose Range
Up to 4 weeks
Levels of A-beta1-40 in Plasma After Treatment at the Intended Target Dose Range
Up to 4 weeks
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of JNJ 54861911
Up to 4 weeks

The Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.

Minimum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmin) of JNJ 54861911
Up to 4 weeks

The Cmin is the minimum observed plasma concentration.

Time to Reach Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax) of JNJ 54861911
Up to 4 weeks

The Tmax is time to reach the maximum observed plasma concentration.

Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to end of Dosing Interval (AUCtau)
Up to 4 weeks

The AUCtau is a measure of the plasma drug concentration from time zero to end of dosing interval. It is used to characterize drug absorption.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Exposure of JNJ-54861911
Up to 4 weeks
The Number of Participants who Experienced Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability of JNJ-54861911 After Multiple-Dose Administration in the Anticipated Target Dose Range
Up to 4 weeks

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.
