About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of a Single Oral Dose of 300 mg JNJ-28431754 (Canagliflozin) in Subjects With Various Degrees of Impaired Hepatic Function Compared With Subjects With Normal Hepatic Function

The purpose of the study is to determine the concentration of canagliflozin in blood and urine samples after the administration of canagliflozin to study participants with mild or moderate hepatic (liver) impairment compared with study participants with normal hepatic function.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (both study participant and investigator will know the name of the assigned treatment), pharmacokinetic (the study of how drugs are absorbed in the body, how they are distributed within the body, and how they are removed from the body over time) study of canagliflozin in adult study participants with mild or moderate hepatic (liver) impairment compared to study participants with normal hepatic function. Approximately 24 study participants who meet entry criteria for the study will be classified into 1 of 3 hepatic function groups: Group 1 (8 study participants with normal hepatic function), Group 2 (8 study participants with mild hepatic impairment) and Group 3 (8 study participants with moderate hepatic impairment). The group allocation is based on the Child-Pugh score, an assessment of 5 clinical measures that is used to characterize the degree of hepatic impairment. At least 3 men and 3 women will be enrolled in each group and the 3 groups will be balanced with respect to an average age and body weight. Study participants will be required to stay overnight at the study center for 5 nights to receive study drug and have study procedures and safety assessments performed. All study participants will be administered a single 300-mg oral (by mouth) dose of canagliflozin after fasting (not eating food) for a period of at least 10 hours. After study drug administration, study participants will be provided with standardized meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Blood and urine samples for analyses of canagliflozin and metabolites (M7 and M5) will be collected from study participants at specified time points up to 120 hours (blood) and 48 hours (urine) after study drug administration. After discharge from the study center, study participants will be required to return to the study center for 3 outpatient visits to have study procedures and safety assessments performed. Study participants will be monitored for safety during the study by evaluating adverse events reported and results from clinical laboratory tests, 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital sign measurements, and physical examinations. On Day 1 of the study, a single 300 mg dose of canagliflozin will be orally administered to study participants after a fasting period of at least 10 hours followed 10 minutes later by a standardized breakfast that must be eaten within 30 minutes. Study participants are to remain standing or sitting for the first 4 hours after dosing. At 2 hours after dosing (but not earlier) all study participants must drink 1 glass of water; drinking of water is allowed from then onwards.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma concentrations of canagliflozin to evaluate protocol-specified pharmacokinetic parameters

    Measured: At protocol-specified time points before and after dosing on Day 1 through Day 6

  2. Urine concentrations of canagliflozin to evaluate protocol-specified pharmacokinetic parameters

    Measured: At protocol-specified time points after dosing on Day 1 through Day 3

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Plasma concentrations of canagliflozin metabolites, (M5 and M7 to evaluate protocol-specified pharmacokinetic parameters

    Measured: At protocol-specified time points before and after dosing on Day 1 through Day 6

  2. Urine concentrations of canagliflozin metabolites (M5 and M7) to evaluate protocol-specified pharmacokinetic parameters

    Measured: At protocol-specified time points after dosing on Day 1 through Day 3

  3. Adverse events reported

    Measured: From Screening (up to 23 days prior to dosing) to 7 to 10 days after Day 6 or at the time of early withdrawal from the study.

  4. Vital signs measurements and results from electrocardiograms

    Measured: From Screening (up to 23 days prior to dosing) to 7 to 10 days after Day 6 or at the time of early withdrawal from the study.

  5. Physical examination findings

    Measured: From Screening (up to 23 days prior to dosing) to 7 to 10 days after Day 6 or at the time of early withdrawal from the study.

  6. Laboratory test results

    Measured: From Screening (up to 23 days prior to dosing) to 7 to 10 days after Day 6 or at the time of early withdrawal from the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Canagliflozin in people with Healthy and Hepatic Insufficiency, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C. 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 5 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 29 May 2013. 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. 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?

Plasma concentrations of canagliflozin to evaluate protocol-specified pharmacokinetic parameters (time frame: At protocol-specified time points before and after dosing on Day 1 through Day 6). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01186588, 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 29 May 2013.
