About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Study in Patients With Osteoarthritis of the Knee to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Ascending Doses of ABT-981

To assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ABT-981 in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study. Thirty-six patients with osteoarthritis of the knee will be selected to participate. Patients will be randomized to receive either ABT-981 or placebo. ABT-981 or placebo will be administered as subcutaneous (under the skin) injections in four dosing groups. Subjects will be administered subcutaneous injections of ABT-981 for up to 8 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with Adverse Events

    Collect all adverse events at each visit

    Measured: From date of first dose of ABT-981 until 70 days after the last dose of ABT-981

  2. Physical Exam including vital signs

    Blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature

    Measured: From date of first dose of ABT-981 until 70 days after last dose of ABT-981

  3. Clinical Lab Testing

    Hematology, Chemistry, and Urinalysis

    Measured: From date of first dose of ABT-981 until 70 days after the last dose of ABT-981

  4. Change from Baseline in Electrocardiogram (ECG)

    ECGs done in triplicate

    Measured: Prior to dose and 8 hours post dose on each day of dosing

  5. Maximum observed serum concentration (Cmax) of ABT-981

    Cmax

    Measured: Prior to first dose up to 70 days after the last dose of ABT-981

  6. Time to Cmax (Tmax) of ABT-981

    Time to Cmax

    Measured: Prior to first dose up to 70 days after the last dose of ABT-981

  7. The area under the time curve (AUC) of ABT-981

    AUC

    Measured: Prior to first dose up until 70 days after the last dose of ABT-981

  8. The terminal phase elimination rate constant and the terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) of ABT-981

    The terminal phase elimination rate constant and the terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) of ABT-981

    Measured: Prior to the last dose up to 70 days after the last dose of ABT-981

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Measurement of anti-drug anti-bodies (ADA) of ABT-981

    Measurement of ADA

    Measured: Prior to each dose and up until 70 days after the last dose of ABT-981

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ABT-981 in people with Osteoarthritis, run by AbbVie (prior sponsor, Abbott) 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 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 20 Nov 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. 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?

Number of participants with Adverse Events (time frame: From date of first dose of ABT-981 until 70 days after the last dose of ABT-981). The study lists 8 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 NCT01668511, 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 20 Nov 2017.
