About this study

Official title: An Exploratory Clinical Trial in Early Stage Huntington's Disease Patients to Assess Pharmacokinetics, Candidate Pharmacodynamic Measures of Target Engagement and Disease Modulation as Well as Acute Phenotypical Effects Following Multiple Oral Doses of SEN0014196.

The primary objective of this study is to provide biological samples from patients with Huntington's disease to allow characterisation of the pharmacological mechanism of action of SEN0014196.

Read the detailed description

This study will establish the acute phenotypical and biological effects of repeated dose application of SEN0014196 in patients with Huntington's disease, providing biomaterials for biomarker studies (levels of circulating huntingtin, acetylation status of mutant huntingtin, innate immune markers, transcriptional profiles). Evaluation of phenotypic effects will include UHDRS scores, total functional capacity. Safety assessments will include ECG, vital signs, laboratory safety tests and physical examination.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the change from baseline of a series of pharmacodynamic markers in peripheral blood mononuclear cells

    Collection of peripheral blood mononuclear cells for biomarker investigations, specifically acetylation status of mutant huntingtin, levels of circulating huntingtin, innate immune markers and transcriptional profiles

    Measured: Baseline, Day 7, Day 14, Follow-Up

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To determine the safety and tolerability following repeated doses of SEN0014196 over two weeks at two dose levels in patients with Huntington's disease

    Safety assessments will include ECG, vital signs, laboratory safety tests, and physical and neurological examination. Tolerability will include type and frequency of adverse events.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 7, Day 14, Follow-up

  2. To determine the pharmacokinetics of repeated doses of SEN0014196 at two dose levels when administered over two weeks in patients with Huntington's disease

    The following parameters will be assessed: maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax), time of maximum observed plasma concentration(tmax), AUC from time zero to the length of the dosing interval (tau) (AUC0-τ), AUC from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration (AUC0-last), AUC from time zero to infinity (AUC0-∞), terminal elimination half-life (t1/2), and terminal elimination rate constant (λz). Gender differences. Dose proportionality.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SEN0014196 (Low Dose) and SEN0014196 (High Dose) in people with Huntington Disease, run by Siena Biotech S.p.A. at 1 site in Germany.

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 10 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 25 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 Germany. 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?

To determine the change from baseline of a series of pharmacodynamic markers in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (time frame: Baseline, Day 7, Day 14, Follow-Up). 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 25 Nov 2015.
