What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline to Week 4 in Plasma Lipoprotein-associated Phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) Activity

    Blood sample for Lp-PLA2 activity was collected before administration of study medication on the sampling day. Participants were instructed to visit without meal and study medication in the morning. The study medication was administered with food following test. Baseline value was defined as the assessment done on Week 0 (Visit 2). Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline (Week 4) assessment value minus the Baseline assessment value. If either value was missing, then the change from Baseline was set to be missing. The natural logarithm (log) was used for transformation in Lp-PLA2 activity. In case of zero values, an offset of 0.0001 was added to the zero values to ensure that the log transformation was successfully applied. The log transformation was conducted on the original value and then taken the change from Baseline on that log original value, calculated as log (post-Baseline value [week 4]) minus log (Baseline value).

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0, Visit 2) and Week 4

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percent Inhibition of Lp-PLA2 Activity in Plasma Over Time

    Blood sample for Lp-PLA2 activity was collected before administration of study medication on the sampling day. Participants were instructed to visit without meal and study medication in the morning. The study medication was administered with food following test. Baseline value was defined as the assessment done on Week 0 (Visit 2). Percentage inhibition of Lp-PLA2 activity relative to a Baseline value was calculated as: 100 multiplied by (post-Baseline values (Week 1, 2, 4 and Follow-up-Baseline value) divided by [Baseline value]).

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0, Visit 2) up to Follow-up (up to Week 7)

  2. Change From Baseline in Lp-PLA2 Activity at Week 1, 2 and Follow-up

    Blood sample for Lp-PLA2 activity was collected before administration of study medication on the sampling day. Participants were instructed to visit without meal and study medication in the morning. The study medication was administered with food following test. Baseline value was defined as the assessment done on Week 0 (Visit 2). Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline (Week 1, Week 2 and Follow-up) assessment values minus the Baseline assessment value. If either value was missing, then the change from Baseline was set to be missing. The log was used for transformation in Lp-PLA2 activity. In case of zero values, an offset of 0.0001 was added to the zero values to ensure that the log transformation was successfully applied. The log transformation was conducted on the original value and then taken change from Baseline on that log original value, calculated as log (post-Baseline [Week 1, Week 2 and Follow-up] values) minus log (Baseline value).

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0, Visit 2), Week 1, Week 2 and Follow-up ( Week 7)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SB480848 40mg EC Tablet, SB480848 80mg EC Tablet and SB480848 160mg EC Tablet in people with Atherosclerosis, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 7 sites in Japan.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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 12 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Japan. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Jan 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Change From Baseline to Week 4 in Plasma Lipoprotein-associated Phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) Activity (time frame: Baseline (Week 0, Visit 2) and Week 4). 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 12 Jan 2018.
