About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Two-part, Open-label Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Rilapladib (SB-659032) and Its Metabolites, and to Determine the Effect of Repeat Dose Itraconazole on the Pharmacokinetics of Rilapladib in Healthy Volunteers

Rilapladib is a potent and selective inhibitor of lipoprotein associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), which was previously under development for the treatment of atherosclerosis and is currently being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

This study is a single-center, open-label, two-part study. The two study parts will run independently. Subjects dosed in one part of this study will not be permitted to participate in the other part.

Part A will investigate the pharmacokinetic profile of rilapladib and its metabolites, SB-664601 and GSK1174379, after single dose and steady state dosing of rilapladib 250 milligram (mg) along with the biliary and urinary elimination pathways of rilapladib 250 mg. Part B will determine the effect of repeat administration of itraconazole on the PK of a single oral dose of rilapladib 25 mg.

Healthy male and female subjects, aged 18-65 years, will be recruited for this study. Ten subjects will be recruited for Part A and 20 subjects will be recruited for Part B.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Rilapladib 25 mg, Rilapladib 250 mg and Itraconazole in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by GlaxoSmithKline.

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 21 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 2016. 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. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Maximum observed concentration (Cmax), time of occurrence of Cmax (Tmax), area under the concentration-time curve over the dosing interval (AUC(0-Tau)) of rilapladib parent compound after single and repeat dosing, in part A of the study. (time frame: Day (D)1: Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 hours (hrs) post-dose, and D14: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 32, 48 (D16), 96 (D18), 144 (D20), 240 (D24) and 336 (D28) hrs post-dose. Pre-dose on Days 11, 12 and 13). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02130661.

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 13 Dec 2016.
