What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  2. Area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable point (AUC(0-t),)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  3. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Time point where log-linear elimination phase begins (TLIN )

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  2. Lowest quantifiable concentration time (LQCT)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  3. Apparent terminal elimination rate constant (λz)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  4. Apparent terminal elimination half-life (t1/2)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  5. Time corresponding to Cmax (tmax)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  6. Apparent Total body clearance (CL/F)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  7. Apparent Volume of distribution (Vz/F)

    Measured: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12

  8. Extrapolated portion of the AUC (AUC_ext )

    Measured: PK samples; from pre-dose to Week 12

  9. Number of subjects with anti-certolizumab pegol antibody plasma level >2.4 units/mL

    Measured: PK samples; from pre-dose to Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Certolizumab pegol in people with Bioavailability Study on Healthy Volunteers, run by UCB Pharma at 2 sites in France.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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 9 Sep 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

Area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC) (time frame: PK samples: from pre-dose to Week 12). 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?
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 9 Sep 2013.
