About this study

Official title: A Two Part Study to Separately Evaluate the Effect of 4-week Treatment With GW501516X Relative to Placebo on Cardiac Energetics in a Randomized, Single-blind, Repeat Dose, Parallel Group Design in Healthy Male Subjects

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of a 4-week treatment period with GW501516X on how the heart obtains and uses energy. The energy of the heart will be measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). This study will also measure a number of other potential markers of drug activity, including levels of certain lipids (fats) and proteins in your blood. The data from this study may help researchers better understand the actions of this drug in the body and if this drug may be useful to treat patients with heart disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dyslipidaemias and Heart Failure, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Mar 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Energy-related chemicals and heart contraction, determined by MRI measurement of the heart.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Mar 2012.
