    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 13

  6. Area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve (AUC) from time zero to time of last measurable concentration (AUC0-t)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 13

  7. AUC from time zero to time 24 hours (AUC0-24h)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 1

  8. AUC from time zero to time infinity (AUC0-~)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 13

  9. Pre-dose trough plasma drug concentration (Ctrough)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1

  10. Observed terminal plasma drug concentration half-life (t1/2)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 13

  11. Apparent oral total plasma drug clearance (CL/F) as Dose/AUC0-~ (single dose) or Dose/AUC0-t (multiple doses)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 13

  12. Apparent oral total volume of distribution (Vz/F)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 13

  13. Amount excreted in urine in each collection interval (Au)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 14

  14. Cumulative urine excretion (Au0-t)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 14

  15. Percentage of dose excreted in urine (% Dose excr)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 14

  16. Renal clearance (CLr)

    Measured: Pre-dose Day 1 to Day 14

  17. Percentage of participants experiencing dose-limiting toxicity

    Measured: Up to 8 days

  18. Percentage of participants experiencing graded laboratory abnormalities

    Measured: Up to 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing IDX719 in people with Hepatitis C, Chronic, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

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 27 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Percentage of participants experiencing an adverse event (AE) (time frame: Up to 14 days). The study lists 18 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01508156, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Apr 2015.
