About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Active- and Placebo-Controlled Study of the Electrocardiogram Effects and Pharmacokinetics of Ferumoxytol in Healthy Men and Women

This study will define the effects of ferumoxytol on electrocardiogram (ECG) data as well as evaluate pharmacokinetics

Read the detailed description

This trial will be conducted in order to provide an evaluation of the potential of ferumoxytol to cause cardiac arrhythmia in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) E14 guidance. The purpose of this trial is to define the effects of ferumoxytol on electrocardiogram (ECG) data. Pharmacokinetics will also be evaluated at multiple time points as specified. Subject safety will be monitored throughout the study.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To define the effect of two doses of 510 mg ferumoxytol administered within 24 hours on the QTcI interval compared to placebo and to a single dose of 400 mg moxifloxacin.

  2. To define the effect of two doses of 510 mg ferumoxytol administered within 24 hours on QT, QTcB, QTcF and heart rate (HR).

  3. To assess the pharmacokinetics of two doses of 510 mg ferumoxytol administered within 24 hours.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To describe the relationship between exposure to ferumoxytol and ECG parameters (QTcI, QT, QTcB, QTcF and HR).

  2. To assess the safety and tolerability of a supratherapeutic dose of ferumoxytol (2 doses of 510 mg ferumoxytol administered within 24 hours).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ferumoxytol and moxifloxacin in people with Anemia, run by AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 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 8 inclusion and 21 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Apr 2022. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

To define the effect of two doses of 510 mg ferumoxytol administered within 24 hours on the QTcI interval compared to placebo and to a single dose of 400 mg moxifloxacin.. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00360425, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 4 Apr 2022.
