About this study

Official title: A Phase Ib, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Study to Determine the Safety, Tolerance, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Effects of Single Doses of Larazotide Acetate (AT-1001) in Celiac Disease Subjects.

To demonstrate the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of larazotide acetate in patients with controlled celiac disease on a gluten-free diet following a gluten challenge.

Read the detailed description

CLIN1001-002 was a Phase 1b, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study to determine the safety, tolerance, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects of single doses of larazotide acetate in subjects with celiac disease subjects. Study subjects were randomized (2:1) to receive single oral doses of larazotide acetate 12 mg or matching placebo once daily for 3 days. Subjects received a single-blinded gluten challenge (5 mg amygluten) on Day 2. Intestinal permeability was measured each day following dosing. Intestinal permeability was measured by administration of an oral sucrose, lactulose and mannitol solution followed by a 6-hour urine collection. Serial blood samples were collected for pharmacokinetic determinations at baseline and 2 and 3 hours post dose; for zonulin determinations at baseline (prior to first dose) and 3 hours post dose; and for cytokine determination at baseline and 3 hours post dose (Days 2 and 3 only) and on Day 7. Sucrose, lactulose, mannitol, zonulin and larazotide acetate concentrations were determined by validated analytical methods.

What is being measured

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

  1. Demonstrate the safety and tolerance of single doses of larazotide acetate in patients with controlled celiac disease on a gluten-free diet.

    Safety assessments included scheduled monitoring of adverse events (AEs), vital sign measurements, 12-lead ECG measurements, physical examinations, and clinical laboratory testing (chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis).

    Measured: AEs were monitored throughout the study. Clinical laboratory testing was performed at scheduled times throughout the study. ECGs were measured at baseline, 3 hours post-dose on all study days and at the follow-up visit.

  2. Determine whether quantifiable concentrations of larazotide acetate are present in plasma following single oral doses and to characterize the pharmacokinetic behavior of larazotide acetate in celiac disease subjects that are gluten-free and in remission

    Pharmacokinetic samples were taken to determine whether quantifiable concentrations of larazotide acetate were present in plasma following single oral doses and to characterize the pharmacokinetic behavior of larazotide acetate in celiac disease subjects.

    Measured: erial blood samples were collected for pharmacokinetic determinations at baseline and 2 and 3 hours post dose.

  3. Evaluate the effects of single doses of larazotide acetate on intestinal permeability ratios and zonulin levels

    Intestinal permeability was measured by administration of an oral sucrose, lactulose and mannitol solution followed by urine and serum collection to measure urinary lactulose and mannitol, and serum zonulin concentrations as biomarkers.

    Measured: Intestinal permeability was measured each day following dosing. A gluten challenge was administered on Day 2.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Self-reported measures of GI discomfort

    GI discomfort was reported by marking an "X" on a 10 cm linear line. Other GI Symptoms were assessed by subjects answering three questions related to bowel function.

    Measured: Once daily on dosing days

  2. Patient Global Assessment of Disease Status

    Subjects chose one of seven ordinal levels in response to a question related to any change in their disease status since being admitted to the clinic

    Measured: At discharge from the clinic

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing larazotide acetate in people with Celiac Disease, run by 9 Meters Biopharma, 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Sep 2017. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Demonstrate the safety and tolerance of single doses of larazotide acetate in patients with controlled celiac disease on a gluten-free diet. (time frame: AEs were monitored throughout the study. Clinical laboratory testing was performed at scheduled times throughout the study. ECGs were measured at baseline, 3 hours post-dose on all study days and at the follow-up visit.). 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 NCT00386165, 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 11 Sep 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
