About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double- Blind (Sponsor-Open), Placebo-Controlled Study To Examine The Density Of Intraepidermal Nerve Fibers After A Single Subcutaneous Administration Of Tanezumab In Healthy Volunteers

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the change in intraepidermal nerve fiber (IENF) density in skin biopsies from proximal thigh and distal leg between baseline and postdose time points after a single SC injection of tanezumab 20 mg SC or placebo in healthy volunteers.

    Measured: 16 weeks

  2. To compare the treatment effect between tanezumab 20 mg SC and placebo on the change in IENF density between baseline and postdose time points in skin biopsies from the proximal thigh and distal leg in healthy volunteers.

    Measured: 16 weeks

  3. To assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a single dose of tanezumab 20 mg SC in healthy volunteers.

    Measured: 16 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of tanezumab 20 mg SC administered in the proximal thigh in healthy volunteers

    Measured: 16 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing tanezumab in people with Osteoarthritis Pain and Chronic Low Back Pain, run by Pfizer 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 4 inclusion and 3 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 26 Apr 2011. 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. 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 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 assess the change in intraepidermal nerve fiber (IENF) density in skin biopsies from proximal thigh and distal leg between baseline and postdose time points after a single SC injection of tanezumab 20 mg SC or placebo in healthy volunteers. (time frame: 16 weeks). 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 26 Apr 2011.
