About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b, Single-Dose, Open-Label, Parallel, Controlled Pharmacology Trial of Inhaled Technosphere®/Insulin in Non-Diabetic Subjects With COPD Versus Matched Non-Diabetic Subjects Without COPD.

Trial will include 40 subjects and consists of 3 visits: Screening, Treatment and Follow up. A euglycemic clamp procedure and Technosphere®/Insulin (T/I) administration will occur at Visit 2 for both COPD and non COPD subjects.

Read the detailed description

Trial objectives are to evaluate the impact of a defined lung disease (COPD) on pharmacokinetic parameters of insulin and fumaryl diketopiperazine (FDKP) after inhalation of Technosphere®/Insulin (T/I), the investigational medicinal product. 40 non diabetic subjects, 20 COPD and 20 age/gender/BMI-matched non COPD subjects will participate in 3 visits: Visit 1 (screening), Visit 2 (subjects will undergo a euglycemic clamp procedure and be dosed with T/I) and Visit 3 (follow up visit).

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the pharmacokinetic disposition of serum insulin and serum fumaryl diketopiperazine following dosing with 30 U T/I, as measured via Area Under the Curve serum insulin and AUC 0-480 min serum FDKP

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Efficacy endpoints include: additional PK parameters of serum insulin and serum FDKP, Pharmacodynamic parameters of sersum insulin, safety of T/I

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Technosphere®/Insulin in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), run by Mannkind Corporation at 5 sites in 4 countries.

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 8 inclusion and 10 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 17 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United Kingdom, United States, Austria, Netherlands. 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?

To evaluate the pharmacokinetic disposition of serum insulin and serum fumaryl diketopiperazine following dosing with 30 U T/I, as measured via Area Under the Curve serum insulin and AUC 0-480 min serum FDKP (time frame: 30 days). 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 17 Dec 2013.
