Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of single oral doses of TMC649128 in 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, First In-human, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial to Examine the Safety, Tolerability, and Blood and Plasma Pharmacokinetics of Increasing Single Oral Doses of TMC649128

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of single oral doses of TMC649128 in 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

TMC649128 will be investigated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C infection. This is a Phase I, first in humans (no clinical studies have been performed to date), double-blind (neither the participant nor investigator knows whether they receive active or placebo), randomized (study medication is assigned by chance), placebo-controlled study to examine the safety, tolerability, and blood and plasma pharmacokinetics of increasing single oral doses of TMC649128. The single dose escalation will consist of 6 sessions (Sessions I to IV) in 6 panels (Panels 1 to 6) of 9 healthy adult volunteers each. The dose of TMC649128 will be consecutively escalated. In each session, 6 participants will receive TMC649128 and 3 participants will receive placebo, all with standard meals. Each session will have a staggered approach, ie, the first 4 participants will be dosed, followed by at least a 72-hour safety review and if no acute effects are observed, the remaining 5 participants will be dosed. The main focus of the trial is the determination of safety and tolerability of TMC649128 after single oral doses in fed conditions in healthy volunteers, but also the determination of the pharmacokinetic characteristics (level-profile of TMC649128 over time in the blood stream and urine). This evaluation requires multiple blood samples from Day 1 to Day 4. Safety assessments (blood and urine tests, blood pressure, pulse, electrocardiogram, and physical examination) will follow a different schedule and will be performed during each session, up to 4 weeks after the last administration. Safety and tolerability evaluations will be recorded at regular intervals throughout the trial. The single dose escalation will consist of 6 sessions in 6 panels of 9 healthy adult volunteers each. The dose of TMC649128 will be consecutively escalated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TMC649128 in people with Healthy Volunteer, run by Tibotec Pharmaceuticals, Ireland.

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 3 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 20 Mar 2013. 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. 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?

Number of volunteers with adverse events, if any (time frame: Up to Day 4). The study lists 4 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 20 Mar 2013.
