About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Open-label, Parallel-design Study to Assess Absolute Bioavailability and Single-dose Pharmacokinetics Following Subcutaneous Administration of Sirukumab Delivered By A Pre-filled Syringe Fitted With UltraSafe Passive™ Delivery System or an Autoinjector in Healthy Male Subjects

The purpose of the study is to assess the bioavailability (the extent to which a medication becomes available to the body) of subcutaneously (under the skin using a needle) administered sirukumab and to compare the pharmacokinetics of sirukumab administered subcutaneously using a pre-filled syringe fitted with the UltraSafe Passive™ Delivery system (PFS-U) with the SmartJect™ Autoinjector (PFS-AI) in healthy male participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized (the study medication is assigned by chance), open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), parallel-group (each group of participants will be treated at the same time), multicenter; single-dose study. Approximately 138 participants will be randomly allocated in a 3:3:3:7:7 ratio to 1 of the 5 treatment groups as follows: Group 1 (a single intravenous infusion of 100 mg sirukumab), Group 2 (a single subcutaneous [SC] injection of 50 mg sirukumab with PFS-U), Group 3 (a single SC injection of 50 mg sirukumab with PFS-AI, Group 4 (a single SC injection of 100 mg sirukumab with PFS-U), and Group 5 (a single SC injection of 100 mg sirukumab with PFS-AI). Randomization will be stratified by body weight (50.0 kg to <70.0 kg, 70.0 kg to <85.0 kg, 85.0 kg to 100.0 kg). Participants will be hospitalized in the study unit for administration of study drug and will be discharged after completion of all scheduled assessments on Day 5. Participants will be required to return to the study unit for outpatient visits on Days 6 and 7, followed by weekly/biweekly outpatient visits, and then a safety follow-up for a total of 13 weeks after study drug administration. Safety evaluations will include assessment of adverse events, physical examination, vital signs, injection site and infusion reactions, electrocardiogram, and clinical laboratory tests. The maximum study duration for each participant will be 120 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Absolute bioavailability of 100 mg sirukumab administered subcutanoeusly

    Bioavailability will be evaluated by using the formula: AUC from time zero to infinity with extrapolation of the terminal phase of SC injection divided by AUC from time zero to infinity with extrapolation of the terminal phase of IV infusion of sirukumab and multiplied by 100.

    Measured: Up to Week 13

  2. Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Cmax) of 100 mg sirukumab administered subcutanoeusly

    The Serum Concentration (Cmax) is defined as maximum observed analyte concentration.

    Measured: Up to Week 13

  3. Area Under the Serum Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 77 days (AUC0-77d) of 100 mg sirukumab administered subcutanoeusly

    Measured: Up to Week 13

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of participants with adverse events

    Measured: Up to Week 13

  2. Immunogenicity of sirukumab

    Serum levels of antibodies to sirukumab will be used to evaluate potential immunogenicity.

    Measured: Up to Week 13

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Sirukumab (IV infusion), Sirukumab (SC injection with PFS-U) and Sirukumab (SC injection with PFS-AI) in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 2 sites 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 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 9 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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. 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?

Absolute bioavailability of 100 mg sirukumab administered subcutanoeusly (time frame: Up to Week 13). The study lists 3 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 9 Mar 2016.
