Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of single and multiple oral doses of TMC435 in Chinese healthy volunteers. Pharmacokinetics (PK) means how the drug is absorbed into the bloodstream, distributed in the body and eliminated from the body. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase I, Open Label, Randomized Study to Examine the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of Different Oral Doses of TMC435 After Single and Repeated Dosing in Healthy Chinese Subjects

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of single and multiple oral doses of TMC435 in Chinese healthy volunteers. Pharmacokinetics (PK) means how the drug is absorbed into the bloodstream, distributed in the body and eliminated from the body.

Read the detailed description

TMC435 is being investigated for the treatment of chronic hepatitic C infection. The results of this study will provide dosing recommendations for the administration of TMC435 in Chinese HCV-infected patients. This is a Phase I, open label (both participant and investigator know the name of the medication given at certain moment), randomized (study medication is assigned by chance) study to investigate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of TMC435 after single and repeated intakes. Each participant will receive 2 treatments. First, participants will receive TMC435 as a single dose of 100 or 200 mg. Thereafter, in the multiple dose part, 100 or 200 mg TMC435 will be administered during 5 consecutuve days every morning. Both treatments will be administered with food. There will be a washout period of at least 72 hours between the 2 treatments. The main focus of the trial is the pharmacokinetic characteristics (level-profile of TMC435 over time in the blood stream). This evaluation requires multiple blood samples from Day 1 till Day 3 in the first session and from Day 1 till Day 11 in the second session. Safety assessments (blood and urine tests, blood pressure, pulse, electrocardiogram, and physical examination) will follow a different schedule and will be performed during each treatment period, up to 4 weeks after the last. Each volunteer participate in 2 treatments, i.e., single dose period and multiple dose period. In the single dose part, planned doses will be 100 or 200 mg TMC435. In the multiple dose part, TMC435 will be administered during 5 consecutive days every morning.

What is being measured

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

  1. plasma concentration of TMC435 after a single oral dose of 100 and 200 mg TMC435 in healthy Chinese volunteers in fed conditions

    Measured: measured on Day 1, 2, 3

  2. plasma concentration of TMC435 after a multiple oral dose of 100 and 200 mg TMC435 in healthy Chinese volunteers in fed conditions

    Measured: measured on Day 4 until 11

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Safety and tolerability of TMC435 after single oral dose of 100 and 200 mg in healthy Chinese volunteers

    Measured: Day 1 until Day 3

  2. Safety and tolerability of TMC435 after multiple oral dose of 100 and 200 mg q.d. for 5 days in healthy Chinese volunteers

    Measured: Day 4 until Day 11 and 12 to 15 days and 38 to 43 days after last intake as safety follow up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TMC435 in people with Hepatitis C, run by Tibotec Pharmaceuticals, Ireland at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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 8 May 2014. 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 Hong Kong. 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 concentration of TMC435 after a single oral dose of 100 and 200 mg TMC435 in healthy Chinese volunteers in fed conditions (time frame: measured on Day 1, 2, 3). 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?
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 May 2014.
