About this study

Official title: Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single-Dose Escalation Study to Assess the Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of APD916 Administered to Healthy Adult Subjects

The APD916-001 study is designed primarily to evaluate the safety and tolerability of APD916 when administered as a single dose

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose escalation study of up to 9 dose cohorts (1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 70 and 90 mg) each comprising 8 subjects (2 to receive placebo, 6 to receive APD916). Each cohort will be assigned to receive a single dose of APD916. After dosing within the first cohort has been completed and safety data review identifies no tolerability issues, and the principal investigator (PI) and Sponsor have agreed that it is safe to proceed, then subjects in the next cohort may be dosed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing APD916 in people with Narcolepsy With or Without Cataplexy, run by Arena Pharmaceuticals at 1 site 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 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 2 Nov 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single, escalating doses of APD916 when administered to healthy adult subjects (time frame: Single 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 2 Nov 2010.
