About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group, Dose Escalation Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Oral Doses of IX-01 in Healthy Male Subjects

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of IX-01 after multiple doses, and to determine how the body handles IX-01.

Being tested
Placebo, IX-01

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with One or More Drug Related Adverse Events (AEs) or any Serious AEs

    Measured: Baseline to Day 20 (Estimated up to 3 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose to 24 hours post dose on Days 1 and 10

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUCtau)

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 24 hours post dose on Days 1 and 10

  3. Time of Peak Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose to 24 hours post dose on Days 1 and 10

  4. Elimination Half Life (t1/2) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose on Day 10

  5. Accumulation Ratio (Racc) of IX-01 based on AUCtau

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 24 hours post dose on Day 10

  6. Accumulation Ratio (Racc) of IX-01 based on Cmax

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 24 hours post dose on Days 1 and 10

  7. Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUCt) from Zero to the Time of Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC(0-t)) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose to 96 hours post dose on Day 10

  8. Minimum Observed Concentration (Ctrough) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose on Days 2 to 10

  9. Elimination Rate Constant (Kel) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose on Day 10

  10. Apparent Clearance of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 24 hours post dose on Day 10

  11. Apparent Volume of Distribution During the Terminal Phase of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose on Day 10

  12. Urine 6-β-hydroxycortisol/cortisol Ratio

    Measured: Pre-dose on Day 1 and Day 10

  13. IX-01 Concentration and Amount Secreted in Semen

    Measured: Between 2 and 4 hours after dosing, on Day 9

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing IX-01 in people with Healthy Participants, run by Ixchelsis Limited at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 6 inclusion and 16 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 3 Sep 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 Kingdom. 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?

Number of Participants with One or More Drug Related Adverse Events (AEs) or any Serious AEs (time frame: Baseline to Day 20 (Estimated up to 3 weeks)). 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 3 Sep 2014.
