About this study

Official title: Investigation on Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Liraglutide-depot in Healthy Subjects. A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial Investigating Subcutaneously Single Dose Escalation of a Sustained Release Formulation of Liraglutide Lysine in Healthy Male Subjects

This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (exposure in the body) of liraglutide-depot in healthy subjects.

Being tested
liraglutide-depot, placebo
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

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

  • liraglutide-depotDrug

    Subjects will be randomised to receive a single dose of liraglutide-depot, at increasing dose levels, injected s.c./subcutaneously (under the skin). Progression to next dose level (max. 8) will be based on safety evaluation.

  • placeboDrug

    Subjects will be randomised to receive a single dose of liraglutide-depot placebo, at increasing dose levels, injected s.c./subcutaneously (under the skin).

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    TEAEs: AEs from 1st exposure (exp) until follow-up (FU) or AEs with onset before 1st exp increasing in severity up to the FU. Mild AEs: no or transient symptoms, no interference (inf) with subject's daily activities. Moderate AEs: marked symptoms, moderate inf with subject's daily activities. Severe AEs: considerable inf with subject's daily activities, unacceptable. Serious AE: AE that at any dose results in death/ a life-threatening experience/ in-subject hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalisation; or persistent/significant disability/incapacity/congenital anomaly/birth defect.

    Measured: Day 0 and up to 21 days after treatment

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Maximum Plasma Concentration of Liraglutide After a Single Dose of Liraglutide-depot

    Measured: Day 0 through day 21 at 1,3,6,12,18, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168, 336, 504 hours post dose

  2. Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration of Liraglutide After a Single Dose of Liraglutide-depot

    Measured: Day 0 through day 21 at 1,3,6,12,18, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168, 336, 504 hours post dose

  3. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Curve in the Period From the Time of Liraglutide-depot Administration to Infinity

    Measured: Day 0 through day 21 at 1,3,6,12,18, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168, 336, 504 hours post dose

  4. Area Under the Liraglutide Plasma Concentration Curve in the First Week Following Liraglutide-depot Administration for Subjects Without Liraglutide 6 mg/ml Pre-treatment

    Measured: 1,3,6,12,18, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168 hours post dose

  5. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Curve in the First Week Following Liraglutide-depot Administration for Subjects With Liraglutide 6 mg/ml Pre-treatment

    Measured: 0 to 168 hours after dosing

  6. Number of Subjects With Antibodies (Positive) or Without Antibodies (Negative) Against Liraglutide Observed at Pre-dose and at Last Follow-up

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 21

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing liraglutide-depot in people with Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 23 Mar 2017. 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 States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Sep 2013). 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 Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: Day 0 and up to 21 days after treatment). 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 23 Mar 2017.
