About this study

Official title: Multi-center, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study of Selective 11 Beta-HSD1 Inhibition With RO5093151 for 12 Weeks to Investigate Efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetics of RO5093151 in Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Its Metabolic Consequences.

This multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the change in liver fat content, pharmacokinetics and safety of RO5093151 in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Patients will be randomized to receive either daily oral doses of RO5093151 or matching placebo. The anticipated time on study treatment is 12 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of liver fat content measured by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS)

    Measured: Week 12

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in insulin resistance assessed by hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp

    Measured: Week 12

  2. Change in endogenous glucose production assessed by hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp

    Measured: Week 12

  3. Pharmacokinetic measures (max and min concentration, clearance, half-life, etc)

    Measured: Week 12

  4. Safety (incidence and nature of adverse events)

    Measured: Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing RO5093151 in people with Fatty Liver, Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, NAFLD, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 4 sites in 2 countries.

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 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 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Germany, Austria. 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. 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 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?

Change of liver fat content measured by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) (time frame: Week 12). 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 NCT01277094, 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 2 Nov 2016.
