About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double Blind Placebo Controlled Phase 1 Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of ZYGK1, a Novel Glucokinase Activator, Following Oral Administration in Healthy Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to determine (1) whether ZYGK1 is safe and well tolerated, (2) the pharmacokinetics (what body does to ZYGK1) and (3) pharmacodynamics (what drugs does to the body) in the healthy and diabetic subject.

Read the detailed description

This study will be a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study and is divided into four plans:

  1. Plan I: Single Ascending Dose (SAD) Study
  2. Plan II: Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD)Study
  3. Plan III: Gender Effect study
  4. Plan IV: Food Effect study

First Plan I, Plan III and Plan IV will be conducted in healthy volunteers. After reviewing the results, decision shall be taken whether the multiple ascending doses shall be studied in healthy human volunteers or in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ZYGK1Drug

    ZYGK1 Tablets: 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, .... mg.

    Dose escalation will continue till single AE occurs in any block of 3 volunteers on ZYGK1 or pharmacokinetic (dose linearity) saturation is reached or desired PK/PD effect is achieved

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability

    Safety and tolerability for-

    • Plan I, Plan III and Plan IV [Time frame: up to Day 8]
    • Plan II [Time frame: upto Day 14]

    Frequency of adverse events will be assessed at each dose level.

    Measured: Upto 14 Days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pharmacokinetics

    Pharmacokinetics after oral administration of ZYGK1 in

    • Plan I, III and IV: [Time frame: 0.25 - 168 hrs post drug administration]
    • Plan II: [Time frame:Day 1: 0.25 - 12 hours, Day 2-6: 0, 2, 4 Hours, Day: 0.25-168 hours post drug administration]

    Effects of food on the pharmacokinetics will be assessed in healthy subjects.

    Measured: 7 Days

  2. Pharmacodynamics

    Plasma glucose, serum insulin, C-peptide and glucagoan estimate -

    • Plane I and Plan III [Time frame: Day 0 and Day 1: upto 4 hours post oral glucose 75 grams]
    • Plan II [Time frame: Day 0, Day 1 and Day 7: upto 4 hours post oral glucose 75 grams]
    • Plan IV: [Time frame: Period 2: Day 0 and Day 1: upto 4 hours post meal]

    Measured: 7 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ZYGK1 in people with Diabetes, run by Zydus Lifesciences Limited at 1 site in India.

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 7 inclusion and 18 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Nov 2015. 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 India. 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?

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?

Safety and tolerability (time frame: Upto 14 Days). 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 Nov 2015.
