What is being measured

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

  1. Safety

    In Part 1, the safety and tolerability of a single 20 mg/kg dose of ACHN-490 Injection will be assessed by measuring adverse events, blood pressure and other vital sign measurements, incidence and magnitude of clinically significant changes from baseline in clinical laboratory values (hematology, chemistry, and urinalysis), and physical examination, through 24 hours after study drug administration or resolution of all adverse events.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Effect of ACHN-490 Injection on QTcF

    The primary endpoint for Part 2 of this study is the time-matched change from baseline in QTcF within 24 hours of receiving study drug.

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. PK Parameters

    The secondary endpoints for Part 1 of this study will include relevant PK parameters such as AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, CLT, Vss, Cmax, Tmax, and t1/2 measured for 24 hours after receiving study drug.

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. ECG Parameters

    Part 2 of the study will measure the effect of ACHN-490 Injection compared to placebo within 24 hours of study drug administration on heart rate, PR interval, QRS interval, QTcB, uncorrected QT interval, RR intervals, change in ST and T-wave morphology, and categorical change in QTc variables.

    Measured: 24 hours

  3. PK Parameters

    Part 2 of this study will measure multiple PK parameters such as AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, CLT, Vss, Cmax, Tmax, and t1/2 measured for 24 hours after receiving study drug.

    Measured: 24 hours

  4. Correlation between drug concentration and QTc

    Part 2 of this study will measure the correlation between the QTc change from baseline and plasma concentrations of ACHN-490 Injection within 24 hours of study drug administration.

    Measured: 24 hours

  5. Safety and tolerability

    Part 2 of this study will measure safety and tolerability of ACHN-490 Injection including adverse events, incidence and magnitude of clinically significant changes from baseline in clinical laboratory values (hematology, chemistry, and urinalysis) and physical examination; all for up to 44 days after receiving study drug.

    Measured: Up to 44 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ACHN-490 Injection and Moxifloxacin in people with Cardiac Effects in Normal Healthy Volunteers, run by Achaogen, Inc. 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 4 inclusion and 32 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 9 May 2012. 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?

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?

Safety (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 2 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 NCT01514929, 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 9 May 2012.
