About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Crossover Study to Assess the Effects of SQ109 on QTc Interval in Healthy Subjects

This will be a single center, open label, crossover study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple dose levels of SQ109.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, randomized, single-center, clinical study of SQ109 to evaluate the potential for this drug to produce QTc prolongation. The study population is healthy male and female subjects, aged 18-45 years. Pharmacokinetics of SQ109 will be measured using interval plasma samples.The overall study design will incorporate within it a four-period investigation suitable for the QT evaluation of an active study treatment. The primary goal of the sample size considerations will be to ensure that the sample size employed during this phase of the study will be adequate to ensure a high likelihood of a successful demonstration of the QT safety of 300 and 450 mg/day SQ109. All subjects will be randomized to a sequence of three seven-day dosing periods, with each dosing period occurring once per subject. The final seven-day dosing period will occur after the first sequence of three dosing periods is completed. A washout period of at least seven days will occur between all dosing periods, and a follow-up visit will occur.

    Measured: Days 1-7 of each dosing period and 30 days after last dosing period.

  2. Electrocardiogram and holter monitor data (QTc, T wave forms, QRS, RR and PR intervals) for 300mg/day SQ109

    Measured: Days 1-7 of each dosing period and 30 days after last dosing period.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Solicited and unsolicited adverse events, including symptoms, physical findings, laboratory testing, holter monitor and ECG changes for 450mg/day SQ109

    Measured: Days 1-7 of each dosing period and 30 days after last dosing period.

  2. Pharmacokinetics of SQ109 at doses of 300 or 450mg/day; AUC0-, (Cmax), time to maximum concentration (Tmax), elimination rate constant, elimination half-life, clearance, volume of distribution, and urinary excretion

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 6 of each dosing period

  3. Electrocardiogram and holter monitor data (QTc, T wave forms, QRS, RR and PR intervals) for 450mg/day SQ109

    Measured: Days 1-7 of each dosing period and 30 days after last dosing period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SQ109 and Moxifloxacin in people with Tuberculosis, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) 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 11 inclusion and 36 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2014. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Solicited and unsolicited adverse events, including symptoms, physical findings, laboratory testing, holter monitor and ECG changes for 300mg/day SQ109 (time frame: Days 1-7 of each dosing period and 30 days after last dosing period.). 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?
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 24 Mar 2014.
