About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Ascending Dose Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of CNTO 1959 Following a Single Intravenous or a Single Subcutaneous Administration in Healthy Subjects and in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Psoriasis

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and how the body affects a drug (CNTO 1959) in healthy volunteers and in patients with psoriasis.

Read the detailed description

CNTO 1959 is an experimental drug. In this study, CNTO 1959 will be tested to see if it may be useful in treating psoriasis. This disease causes inflammation of skin and nails. This is a Randomized (study drug assigned by chance), Double-blind (neither physician nor patient knows the name of the assigned drug), Placebo-controlled study of the experimental drug CNTO 1959 in both healthy patients as well as patients with psoriasis. This study will compare the effects (both good and bad) of CNTO 1959 to those of placebo. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and potential side effects of CNTO 1959 given to healthy volunteers and patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. In addition, the investigators will measure how much study drug is in the blood following a dose of CNTO 1959, and determine if the body makes antibodies to it. (An antibody is a protein made by the body in response to a foreign substance). Safety assessments will be performed throughout the study and include obtaining and evaluating laboratory tests, vital signs (e.g., blood pressure), and the occurrence and severity of adverse events. This is the first time that CNTO 1959 will be studied in humans. There will be 2 parts to this study. The first part of this study will involve healthy volunteers, and the second part of the study will involve patients with psoriasis. About 47 healthy volunteers and 24 patients with moderate to severe psoriasis will take part in the study. Enrollment for the healthy volunteer part is closed as of 23SEP09. CNTO 1959 will be administered as either an intravenous (IV) infusion or subcutaneous (SC) injection. Duration of participation may be up to 28 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study of Psoriasis, run by Centocor, Inc. at 8 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 2 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 5 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 8 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?

Safety and tolerability of CNTO 1959 in healthy volunteers and patients with psoriasis. (time frame: Assessments will occur at each study visit and up to 24 weeks following administration of study agent). 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 5 Sep 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
