  • The following criteria apply only to subjects enrolled into Groups 1 and 2 (mild or moderate hepatic impairment):
  • Must have stable hepatic disease (i.e., no change in disease status within the last 2 months as determined by the enrolling Investigator) with laboratory and clinical findings that support the diagnosis of hepatic impairment.
  • Must have a total Child-Pugh score (Section 22, Appendix I) of 5-6 (mild), or 7-9 (moderate).
  • Must be otherwise healthy as determined by the Investigator on the basis of pre-study physical examination, medical history, 12-lead ECG, vital signs, and clinical laboratory parameters. Subjects with controlled hypertension and those problems directly associated with the primary diagnosis of hepatic impairment may be included. Subjects with stable, mild, chronic concurrent diseases, such as degenerative joint disease, may be included.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BG9928 in people with Hepatic Impairment, run by Biogen at 2 sites 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 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 27 Jan 2010. 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 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?

The comparative effect of hepatic function on the pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose of BG9928 in subjects with mild and moderate hepatic impairment as compared to subjects with normal hepatic function (time frame: 1 week post dose). 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 27 Jan 2010.
