About this study

Official title: A Four-Part Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacodynamic Effects of PUR118 and Placebo in Normal Healthy Volunteers and Subjects With COPD

The purpose of this study is to establish single and multiple dose safety in healthy subjects and subjects with mild chronic pulmonary obstructive disease (COPD). In addition, the study will evaluate preliminary proof of concept endpoints in COPD subjects such as biomarkers in sputum and mucociliary clearance.

Read the detailed description

The proposed initial trial in healthy subjects and subjects with mild COPD will establish the tolerability of PUR118 in these subjects over single and short multi-day dosing periods. The study will also provide preliminary data regarding PUR118's potential impact on biomarkers in COPD. Finally, this trial will assess PUR118's effect on mucociliary clearance. This is a four part study enrolling healthy volunteers in a single ascending dose design (SAD; Part I), followed by multiple ascending dose design (MAD; Part II). Contingent on demonstration of safety in a healthy subject population, the study will enroll mild COPD subjects for a short multi-dose design (Part III) incorporating safety and pharmacodynamic endpoints. Lastly Part IV of the trial will assess the effect of PUR118 on mucociliary clearance in mild COPD subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability assessed by changes in clinical signs and symptoms, clinical safety laboratory tests, vital signs, ECG, spirometry, oxygen saturation, telemetry and adverse events

    Measured: 2 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Assessment of biomarkers of inflammation and COPD in induced sputum in mild COPD subjects after short multi-dosing with PUR118 compared to baseline

    Measured: 2 days

  2. Assessment of changes in mucociliary clearance after treatment with PUR118 in mild COPD subjects compared to baseline

    Measured: single dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PUR118 in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Pulmatrix Inc. at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 7 Sep 2012. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Safety and tolerability assessed by changes in clinical signs and symptoms, clinical safety laboratory tests, vital signs, ECG, spirometry, oxygen saturation, telemetry and adverse events (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 7 Sep 2012.
