What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the effect of a single dose of NKTR-118 25 mg and 150 mg on the change in time-matched QTcF intervals compared with placebo

    Measured: 30 days pre-dose through 4 treatment periods and follow up 71 days post dose.

  2. The effect of a single dose of NKTR-118 25 mg and 150 mg on the change in time-matched QTcF intervals compared with placebo

    Measured: Follow up 71 days post dose.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. To evaluate the effect of a single oral dose of moxifloxacin 400 mg on the changes in time-match QTcF intervals compared with placebo, which will be used as supporting data.

    Measured: 30 days pre-dose through 4 treatment periods

  2. Collect adverse events to assess the safety after dosing of NKTR-118 25mg and 150 mg in healthy male subjects.

    Measured: 30 days pre-dose through 4 treatment periods

  3. To evaluate the effect of a single oral dose of moxifloxacin 400 mg on the changes in time-match QTcF intervals compared with placebo, which will be used as supporting data.

    Measured: Follow up 71 days post dose

  4. Collect adverse events to assess the safety after dosing of NKTR-118 25mg and 150mg in healthy male subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing NKTR-118 and moxifloxacin in people with Amount of NKTR-118 in Blood and Variation in the Heart's Electrical Cycle, run by AstraZeneca at 1 site 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 2 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 15 Oct 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 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. 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?

To evaluate the effect of a single dose of NKTR-118 25 mg and 150 mg on the change in time-matched QTcF intervals compared with placebo (time frame: 30 days pre-dose through 4 treatment periods and follow up 71 days post dose.). 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 NCT01325415, 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 15 Oct 2014.
