About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Ascending Single Dose Study of the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of TAK-438 in Healthy Male Subjects

The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the single dose safety and pharmacokinetics of TAK-438 in healthy Japanese men.

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-438. TAK-438 is being tested to find a safe and well-tolerated dose and to assess how TAK-438 moves throughout the body. This study will look at lab results and side effects in people who took TAK-438. This study consisted of 2 sequential studies: a single rising dose study (Steps 1 to 7) and a food-effect study (Steps 8 and 9).

The study population for Steps 1 to 7 consisted of 12 participants; with 9 participants randomized to receive a single dose of TAK-438, and 3 participants to receive placebo. Participants in Steps 1 to 7 received a single dose of study drug after a 10-hour fast. The starting dose was 1 mg followed by administrations of 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 120 mg. Steps 8 and 9 consisted of 12 participants in a 2-sequence, 2-period crossover design. Four participants were to receive a single dose of TAK-438 and 2 participants were to receive a single dose of placebo on Day 1, in the fasted state, and 4 participants were to receive a single dose of TAK-438 and 2 participants were to receive a single dose of placebo on Day 1 in the fed state, followed by a second single dose of TAK-438 or placebo in the alternative fed state after a 13 day minimum washout period. Participants in Steps 8 randomized to receive TAK-438 will receive 10 mg and participants in Step 9 will receive 40 mg.

This single-centre trial was conducted in Japan. The overall time to participate in this study was up to 32 days depending on the Step assignment. Participants made 3 to 5 visits to the clinic, including one or two 8-day periods of confinement to the clinic, also depending on Step assignment. All participants made a final visit 15 days after last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TAK-438 in people with Ascending Single Dose Study, run by Takeda.

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 7 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 28 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AE) (time frame: Day 1 to Day 15). The study lists 18 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 28 Apr 2014.
