About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Ascending Single-Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of CARD-024 (1α-Hydroxy-Vitamin-D5) in Healthy Subjects

Study Phase: Phase 1

Primary Objective:

  • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single ascending oral doses of CARD-024 in healthy subjects

Secondary Objectives:

  • To evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of CARD-024 following ascending single oral doses of CARD-024
  • To evaluate the effect of CARD-024 on cardiovascular indices including plasma renin activity (PRA) and blood pressure (BP), biological markers of activity, following ascending single oral doses of CARD-024
Read the detailed description

Study Design: This is a single-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of single oral doses of CARD-024. Four planned cohorts of 8 subjects each will be dosed sequentially and randomized to receive a single dose of active drug (6 subjects) or placebo (2 subjects). Cohort 4 will have 10 subjects randomized to receive active drug (7 subjects) or placebo (3 subjects). Each cohort will be divided into at least 2 groups; the first group will have 2 subjects, 1 receiving active drug and 1 receiving placebo. Dosing of the remaining 6 subjects in each cohort will be completed in a manner agreed upon by the Sponsor and the Principal Investigator in keeping with the randomization schedule and blinded conditions.

The planned cohorts are:

Cohort CARD-024 Dose*

  1. 3 μg
  2. 9 μg
  3. 27 μg
  4. 81 μg

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety

    Adverse events such as nausea, vomiting, headache, muscle ache, neuralgia and patient overall tolerance to drug.

    Measured: 5 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Drug Pharmacokinetics

    Measure of drug absorption and elimination by measuring drug blood levels after oral administration. Assessment of drug C-max, T-lag, T-1/2, AUC, Vd/F and K-a.

    Measured: 5 days

  2. Drug Pharmacodynamics

    Measure of pharmacodynamics by 1] measuring plasma renin activity (PRA), 2] measuring plasma parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels, and 3] measuring drug effect on systolic and diastolic blood pressure by arm cuff occlusion.

    Measured: 5 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CARD-024 and Drug Carrier in people with Drug Safety and Heart; Disease, Activity, run by Cardiavent 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 7 inclusion and 15 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 31 Dec 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: 5 days). 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 31 Dec 2012.
