About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Ascending Dose Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of CNTO 1959 Following a Single Subcutaneous Administration in Japanese Subjects With Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of CNTO 1959 following a single subcutaneous (SC, under the skin) dose administered to Japanese participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized (participants are assigned to treatment groups by chance), double-blind (participants and study personnel know what study agents are given), placebo-controlled (a placebo is a treatment identical in appearance to CNTO 1959 but does not contain active drug), single-dose study. The study will include 24 participants: 4 groups of at least 6 participants each. If it is decided that additional data are needed to define the safety and tolerability of CNTO 1959, an additional group may be enrolled. A given dose level may be repeated in newly enrolled participants, or a lower or intermediate dose may be administered based on preliminary data. The total duration of participation will be approximately 30 weeks, which includes a screening period of up to 6 weeks before the administration of study agent. Participant safety will be monitored. Ascending doses of 10, 30, 100, and 300 mg dose of CNTO 1959 and placebo will be administered as single SC injections; however, 2 SC injections may be required for the 300 mg dose level. Dosing will be performed for 24 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CNTO 1959 in people with Psoriasis, run by Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K. at 1 site in Japan.

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 5 Sep 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 Japan. 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 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?

The number and type of adverse events (time frame: Up to 24 weeks). The study lists 7 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 5 Sep 2017.
