What is being measured

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

  1. Relative Bioavailability (Frel) of a Capsule Compared to a Liquid Formulation of IX-01 While Fasting, as Calculated by a Ratio of Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose

  2. Relative Bioavailability (Frel) of a Capsule Formulation of IX-01 in the Fed State Compared to the Fasted State, as Calculated by a Ratio of Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose

  3. Relative Bioavailability (Frel) of a Capsule Compared With a Liquid Formulation of IX-01 While Fasting, as Calculated by a Ratio of Peak Plasma Concentrations

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose

  4. Relative Bioavailability (Frel) of a Capsule Formulation of IX-01 in a Fed State Compared to a Fasted State, as Calculated by a Ratio of Peak Plasma Concentrations

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose

  5. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity, Following a Single Dose of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose and up to 96 hours post dose

  6. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose and up to 96 hours post dose

  7. Time to Peak Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose

  8. Elimination Half Life (t1/2) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose

  9. Elimination Rate Constant (Kel) of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post last dose

  10. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time Curve From Time 0 to the Time of the Last Measurable Sample of IX-01

    Measured: Pre-dose to the time of the last measurable sample

  11. Concentration of IX-01 in Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) After a Single Dose of the Liquid Formulation of IX-01

    Listed by time point of 1, 2, 4, 6 hours post dose

    Measured: 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours after dosing

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants With One or More Drug-Related Adverse Events (AEs) or Any Serious AEs

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (approximately 6 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing IX-01 in people with Healthy Participants, run by Ixchelsis Limited at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 6 inclusion and 26 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 20 Aug 2020. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Aug 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Relative Bioavailability (Frel) of a Capsule Compared to a Liquid Formulation of IX-01 While Fasting, as Calculated by a Ratio of Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity (time frame: Pre-dose up to 96 hours post dose). The study lists 11 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 20 Aug 2020.
