What is being measured

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

  1. PD/PK: Dose response of SCH 527123 on ozone-induced sputum neutrophilia in healthy subjects (Part 1) and subjects with COPD (Part 2), measured by placebo-adjusted percent change in sputum neutrophil counts and absolute sputum neutrophil counts.

    Measured: Part 1, four treatment periods, Part 2 three treatment periods duration of the trial.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SCH 527123 in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

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 15 inclusion and 17 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

PD/PK: Dose response of SCH 527123 on ozone-induced sputum neutrophilia in healthy subjects (Part 1) and subjects with COPD (Part 2), measured by placebo-adjusted percent change in sputum neutrophil counts and absolute sputum neutrophil counts. (time frame: Part 1, four treatment periods, Part 2 three treatment periods duration of the trial.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01068145, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Mar 2015.
