About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized, Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of JNJ-39393406 in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple dose administration of JNJ-39393406 in young healthy participants, and subsequently in healthy elderly participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a double-blind (neither physician nor participant knows the treatment that the participant receives), placebo-controlled (study in which an inactive substance is given to one group of participants, while the study medication is given to another group), randomized (the study medication is assigned by chance), and multiple ascending dose (participants will receive multiple doses of study medication and the dose level is subsequently escalated in further groups) study. This study will consist of screening phase (between 21 and 2 days prior to dose administration), a double-blind treatment phase (Part A - 7 days and Part B - 13 days), and a follow-up phase (within 7 to 14 days after last dose administration). In Part A of the multiple ascending dose study approximately 40 young healthy male participants will be randomly allocated to 5 cohorts (group of individuals with similar characteristics) to receive single daily doses of either JNJ-39393406 or placebo for 7 consecutive days. After each dose level, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile (explores what the body does to a medication) of the dose level will be evaluated and the next dose level will be escalated considering the safety and tolerability data. In Part B of the study approximately 48 elderly healthy male and female participants will be randomly allocated to A, B, and C cohorts to receive single daily doses of either JNJ-39393406 or placebo for 13 consecutive days. Dose levels in Part B will be selected based on the PK data from Part A. In both Part A and Part B of the study the dose levels will be increased only after acceptable safety and tolerability data will be obtained. Safety evaluations will include assessments of adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, 24-hour creatinine clearance, Holter monitoring, telemetry, electrocardiogram, vital signs, physical examination, and neurological examination. The study duration for each participant will be approximately 8 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JNJ-39393406 in people with Healthy, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C. at 1 site in Belgium.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 24 Jan 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 Belgium. 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. 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 adverse events (time frame: Up to Day 56). The study lists 15 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 Jan 2014.
