Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 40 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Healthy adult Caucasian men or non-pregnant, non-lactating women between 18 and 40 years of age, inclusive.
  • Healthy as judged by responsible physician with no clinically significant abnormality identified on the medical and laboratory evaluation, including 12-lead ECG and vital signs.
  • Non-smoker in the previous 3 months.
  • Body weight greater than or equal to 50 kg and BMI within the range 19-29 kg/m2, inclusive.
  • At screening and Run-in period each ECG should have:
  • Consistent sinus rhythm, (i.e. if greater than or equal to 2 ECGs are not sinusal at different time points the volunteer should not be included),
Show all 30Show fewer
  • No clinically significant conduction disorder,
  • PR between 120 and 230 ms,
  • HR less than or equal to 100 beats/min and greater than or equal to 40 beats/min,
  • QRS < 120 ms,
  • QT intervals that can be consistently analysed,
  • QTcB less than or equal to 430 ms for males,
  • QTcB less than or equal to 450 ms for females
  • If there are outlying values in the ECGs, the consistency of these values should be confirmed as follows:
  • If HR is between 40 and 44 bpm (inclusive) in 2 ECGs (of one triplicate) on more than one time point during Run-in, subject should not be selected. Conversely, this means that if HR is between 40 and 44 bpm at screening and/or on just one time-point-triplicate during Run-in, the volunteer can be selected.
  • If HR < 40 bpm on a single occasion at screening or in Run-in period, subject should not be selected,
  • If PR interval is consistently out-of-range (< 120 or > 230 ms) during Run-in period, i.e. in 2 out of 3 ECGs at one time point or in one ECG at more than one time point, the cardiologist needs to perform a manual measurement of this value. If the manual measurement confirms that PR is out-of-range, the volunteer must not be selected.
  • If QRS is consistently >120 ms during run-in period, i.e. in 2 ECGs of a triplicate or in 2 ECGs from 2 different time-points, the cardiologist needs to perform a manual measurement of this value. If the manual measurement confirms the QRS is out-of-range, the volunteer must not be selected.
  • If QTcB is out of range (QTcB >430 ms for males or >450 ms for females, or repeated demonstration of a QTcB interval >440 ms for females) even on a single occasion, it should be checked whether the heart rate is constant. If the HR is not constant and if the increase in QTcB is clearly due to hysteresis (e.g. on the immediate repeated ECG with consistent HR the QTcB is back to normal), then the volunteer can be selected. If the HR is constant and the QTcB is still out-of-range, the cardiologist needs to perform a manual measurement and calculation of the QTcB. If the QTcB is normal on manual measurement, the volunteer can be selected. If the QTcB is abnormal on manual measurement without acceptable cause, the volunteer must not be selected, even if the QTcB is outlying on one single ECG.
  • The final decision to include / not include a volunteer based on protocol ECG criteria lies with the cardiologist assessing the Run-in ECGs.
  • Signed and dated written informed consent prior to admission to the study.
  • The subject is able to understand and comply with protocol requirements, instructions, and protocol-stated restrictions.
  • A female subject may be entered into the study if she is:
  • Post-menopausal female defined as being amenorrhoeic for greater than 2 years with an appropriate clinical profile, e.g. appropriate age and history of vasomotor symptoms. However; if indicated, this should be confirmed by estradiol and FSH levels consistent with menopause (according to local laboratory ranges).
  • Pre-menopausal females with a documented hysterectomy (medical report verification) and/or bilateral oophorectomy. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only acceptable when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment.
  • Females of childbearing potential must use one of the following methods of contraception:
  • Abstinence
  • Surgical sterilisation (tubal ligation)
  • use oral contraceptives, injectable progesterone, or subdermal implants
  • use double barrier method consisting of spermicide in addition to using a condom, or having another form of contraception such as an intrauterine device, diaphragm, or cervical cap.

Who cannot join

  • History of clinically significant syncope.
  • Family history of sudden death.
  • Family history of premature cardiovascular death.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effects of Therapeutic and Supra-therapeutic Single Doses of SKY0402 Given as Subcutaneous Injection on the QT/QTc Interval in Young Healthy Volunteers. A Prospective, Randomized, Placebo- and Positive-controlled, Double Blind, Single-centre, Crossover Phase 1 Study.

A reduction in the postoperative need for opioids to enhance the recovery process and increase patient postoperative satisfaction.

Read the detailed description

Providing extended pain relief without the use of indwelling catheters is the basis for developing SKY0402. A formulation of bupivacaine, given as a single injection after surgery, that could provide adequate, continuous, and extended pain relief would greatly simplify postoperative pain management, reduce the need for repeated administration, and minimize break-through episodes of pain.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SKY0402 and Moxifloxacin 400mg in people with Postoperative Pain, run by Pacira Pharmaceuticals, Inc at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 30 inclusion and 31 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 16 Feb 2021. 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 Kingdom. 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?

ECG findings using the best heart rate correction method (time frame: Up to 96 hours). 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 16 Feb 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
