About this study

Official title: Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Single Rising Oral Doses of BI 137882 in Healthy Male Volunteers (A Randomised, Single-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase I Study)

Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Single Rising Oral Doses of BI 137882 in Healthy Male Volunteers

Read the detailed description

As a transition from preclinical investigations to clinical development in this first-in-man trial, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of BI 137882 will be assessed in healthy male volunteers using single rising oral doses in order to provide the basis for a potential ongoing clinical development of BI 137882 in the indication of COPD.

Healthy male subjects aged 21 - 50 years will be recruited for this study. They provide a relatively stable physiological, biochemical and hormonal basis (steady state) for studying drug effects, they show no disease-related variation and they are not taking concomitant medication.

Within each dose group, all actively treated individuals will receive the same BI 137882 dose. The next higher dose will only be administered if the treatment in the preceding dose group was safe and well tolerated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 137882 in people with Healthy, run by Boehringer Ingelheim.

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 4 inclusion and 21 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2016. 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. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Jun 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Subjects With Drug Related Adverse Events (time frame: From baseline up to 28 days). The study lists 6 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 16 Sep 2016.
