About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Study to Investigate the Dosimetry of the Positron Emission Tomography Ligand for the Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor-2 (mGlu2R), [11C]JNJ-42491293, and Displacement by the mGlu2R Positive Allosteric Modulator JNJ-40411813 in Healthy Male Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate [11C] JNJ-42491293 as a PET ligand in healthy adult volunteers.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (volunteers will know the identity of assigned treatment) study in healthy adult volunteers and will consist of 4 consecutive parts, A, B, C, and D. Advancement to parts B, C, and D will occur only if the objectives of the preceding parts are met. Healthy adult volunteers will be recruited for each part of the study. This will be the first study in which 42491293 will be given to healthy adult volunteers. Part A will investigate the measurement of radiation (referred to as radiation dosimetry) of 42491293. Part B will measure the regional brain kinetics (activity) and binding properties of 42491293. Part C will assess the dose dependent blocking of 42491293 by 40411813 in brain tissues following single oral doses of 40411813. Part D will assess the 'duration of occupancy' of the metabotropic glutamate receptor-2 (mGluR2) positive allosteric modulator (PAM) site in the brain by 40411813 compared to peripheral clearance. In this study, 42491293 will be radio-labeled and evaluated as a potential positron emission tomography (PET) ligand for use in imaging studies of the brain to detect binding of 40411813, a compound being developed for treating patients with psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia and anxiety disorders. In Parts A,B,C, and D, [11C] JNJ-42491293 (300 to 370 MBq) will be dosed as an i.v. bolus injection. During Part C and D, JNJ-40411813 (up to 500mg) will be administered orally (by mouth) 1.5 to 3 hours prior to scheduled PET scans.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing [11C] JNJ-42491293 and [11C] JNJ-42491293 + JNJ-40411813 in people with Healthy, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C..

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 5 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 22 Jul 2011. 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?

Metabolism (uptake, distribution, and clearance) of [11C] JNJ-42491293 in brain (Part B) (time frame: Up to approximately 8 days). The study lists 5 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 22 Jul 2011.
