    No formal statistical test will be performed.

    Measured: From baseline, defined as one day before first dose, up to day 29.

  10. Description of the safety and tolerability profile of AZD2820 in terms of Penile erection (measured by Rigiscan).

    No formal statistical test will be performed.

    Measured: From baseline, defined as one day before first dose, up 12th day of dosing.

  11. Description of the safety and tolerability profile of AZD2820 in terms of physical examination.

    No formal statistical test will be performed. Abnormalities will be listed without statistical analysis.

    Measured: From baseline, defined as two days prior first dose, up to day 29.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in total caloric intake from baseline.

    Change from baseline will be measured after each meal and then grafically presented.

    Measured: From baseline, defined as one day prior first dose to end of treatement which is day 15.

  2. Description of the PK profile of AZD2820 in terms of Cmax, AUC(0-tau), AUC(0-t), AUC, (t1/2lz, h).

    Maximum drug plasma concentration (Cmax), Area under the drug plasma concentration-time curve from zero to the end of the dosing interval (AUC(0-tau), Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-t)), Area under the plasma concentration time curve from zero to infinity (AUC), Terminal half-life (t1/2lz, h).

    Measured: Day 1, PK samples collected post-dese at 20 min, 40 min, 1hr, 1.20hr, 1.40hr, 2hrs, 3hrs, 4hrs, 6hrs, 8hrs, 12hrs, 18hrs and 24hrs.

  3. Description of PK profile of AZD2820 in terms of (Css,max, nmol/L), AUCss,(0-tau), (t1/2lz).

    Maximum plasma concentration at steady state (Css,max, nmol/L), Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to the end of the dosing interval at steady state (AUCss,(0-tau)), Terminal half-life (t1/2lz).

    Measured: Day 7, PK samples collected post-dese at 20 min, 40 min, 1hr, 1.20hr, 1.40hr, 2hrs, 3hrs, 4hrs, 6hrs, 8hrs, 12hrs, 18hrs and 24hrs.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD2820 in people with Obesity, run by AstraZeneca 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?

The sponsor lists 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jul 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. 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Description of the safety and tolerability profile of AZD2820 in terms of adverse events. (time frame: From baseline, defined as day 1 of dosing, up to day 29). The study lists 11 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 24 Jul 2012.
