About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Ascending One-Day (Single and Divided Dose) Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetic Study of EDP-788 in Healthy Adult Volunteers

The primary objective of the study is to determine the safety of single doses of orally administered EDP-788.

Secondary objectives of the study are:

  • To describe the pharmacokinetics of EDP-788 (and its metabolite EDP-322) after single doses of orally administered drug
  • To estimate the bioavailability of EDP-788 capsules relative to an oral liquid suspension
  • To estimate the effect of co-administration of food on the absorption of EDP-788
Read the detailed description

Subjects are enrolled in successive cohorts and are randomized to receive either EDP-788 or placebo capsules. If the safety profile of the drug is acceptable, based upon review of blinded data, the cohort receiving the next higher dose will be treated. Up to 8 cohorts will be recruited. All subjects receive a single dose of study drug (EDP-788 or placebo).

Subjects in Cohort C will receive a second single dose of study drug (EDP-788 or placebo) approximately 2 weeks after the first dose. The second dose will be administered as a liquid suspension rather than as a capsule formulation. The purpose of the second dose is to estimate the bioavailability of the capsule formulation relative to the suspension.

Subjects in Cohort E will receive a second single dose of study drug (EDP-788 or placebo) approximately 2 weeks after the first does. The second dose will be administered with a standard test meal. The purpose of the second dose is to estimate the effect of food on absorption of EDP-788.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing EDP-788 in people with Safety in Normal Volunteers, run by Enanta Pharmaceuticals, 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 5 inclusion and 6 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 9 Jan 2015. 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?

Incidence and severity of adverse events (time frame: From time of dosing to 8 - 10 days after receiving study drug). 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 9 Jan 2015.
