About this study

Official title: A Multi-Centre, Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study of TA-8995 in Patients With Mild Dyslipidaemia, Alone and In Combination With Statin Therapy

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of different doses of TA-8995, a cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor, on the elevation of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), alone and in combination with statin therapy.

The secondary objectives of this study are to determine the safety and tolerability of TA-8995 in patients with mild dyslipidaemia.

Conditions
Dyslipidemia
Being tested
TA-8995, Atorvastatin, Rosuvastatin, TA-8995 0mg (placebo), Placebo Statin

What is being measured

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

  1. The co-primary efficacy endpoints are the percentage changes in both HDL-C and LDL-C levels at Week 12 compared to baseline.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing TA-8995, Atorvastatin and Rosuvastatin in people with Dyslipidemia, run by Xention Ltd at 17 sites in 2 countries.

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 2 inclusion and 8 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 21 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Netherlands, Denmark. 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 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?

The co-primary efficacy endpoints are the percentage changes in both HDL-C and LDL-C levels at Week 12 compared to baseline. (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 NCT01970215, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 21 Aug 2014.
