What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the effect of LIM-0705 on glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism and renal function in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance

    • Assessment of glucose metabolism will be based on monitoring of overnight-fasting glucose levels and on performance of an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)
    • Assessment of lipid metabolism will be based on 12 hour-fasting lipid profiles (including LDL, HDL, total cholesterol, free fatty acids, and triglycerides)
    • Assessment of renal function will be performed by monitoring serum BUN and creatinine levels

    Measured: approx. 1 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of treatment emergent adverse events and pharmacokinetics of LIM-0705 and its major metabolite

    • To evaluate the incidence of treatment emergent adverse events; as well as changes in physical examination findings, vital signs, ECGs, and clinical laboratory tests (serum chemistry, hematology urinalysis, and coagulation)
    • To characterize the pharmacokinetics of LIM-0705 and its major metabolite

    Measured: approx. 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LIM-0705 in people with Impaired Glucose Tolerance, run by Limerick BioPharma.

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 23 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2010. 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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 effect of LIM-0705 on glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism and renal function in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (time frame: approx. 1 month). 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 8 Jun 2010.
