About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, 4-way Crossover Study to Evaluate the Dose-proportionality and Pharmacokinetics of FG-4592 in Healthy Young and Elderly Male and Female Subjects

This study evaluates the concentration of FG-4592 in the blood over a certain period after the intake of different doses, and assesses the effects, the safety and the tolerability of the study drug in healthy young and elderly male and female subjects.

On Day 1 of each of 4 periods subjects receive different single doses of FG-4592 or a placebo, depending on the treatment sequence to which they are randomized. For each period the subjects remain in the clinic for 6 days (Days -2 to 4). They are discharged after all assessments are completed on Day 4 of each period, and return for an End of Study visit (ESV) between 5 and 9 days after the last assessment of Period 4.

Read the detailed description

In this study eligible subjects reside in the clinic for 4 periods of 6 days (Day -2 through Day 4). Screening takes place from Day -23 through Day -3. Subjects are admitted to the clinic on Day -2 of Period 1. Within each cohort (young and elderly subjects), subjects are randomized to one of 24 treatment sequences of 4 treatment options (3 different doses of FG-4592 and placebo) and 4 periods.

On Day 1 of each period, subjects receive a single oral dose of FG-4592 or placebo followed by a 72-hour evaluation period. Subjects are discharged on Day 4, if there are no medical reasons for a prolonged stay. Each period is separated by a wash-out period of at least 10 days between dosing on Day 1 of the previous period and dosing on Day 1 of the following period. The subjects return for an end-of-study visit (ESV) 5-9 days after the last assessment of Period 4 (or after early withdrawal).

Plasma and urine samples are collected for pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) assessments. Safety assessments are performed throughout the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. PK after a single dose of FG-4592 measured by area under the concentration-time curve from the time of dosing extrapolated to time infinity (AUCinf),

    Measured: Days 1- 4 (all periods)

  2. PK after a single dose of FG-4592 measured by maximum concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Days 1- 4 (all periods)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. PK of FG-4592 in plasma

    area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from time point 0 to time point 24 hours (AUC0-24h), unbound AUC from time point 0 to time point 24 hours (AUC0-24h,u), AUC from the time of dosing to the last measurable concentration (Clast) (AUClast), unbound AUC from the time of dosing to Clast (AUClast,u), unbound AUC extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf,u), maximum unbound plasma concentration (Cmax,u), apparent total body clearance after extra-vascular dosing (CL/F), unbound CL/F (CLu/F), fraction unbound (fu), time interval between the time of dosing and the first measurable concentration above LOQ in Plasma (tlag), time of the maximum concentration (tmax), terminal elimination half-life (t1/2), apparent volume of distribution during the terminal elimination phase after single extravascular dosing (Vz/F), unbound Vz/F (Vz,u/F)

    Measured: Days 1 - 4 (all periods)

  2. PK of FG-4592 in urine

    renal clearance (CLR), unbound CLR (CLR,u), CLR from time point 0 to 24 hours (CLR,0-24h), unbound CLR,0-24h (CLR,0-24h,u), cumulative amount of drug excreted unchanged into urine, from time of dosing extrapolated to time infinity (Aeinf), percent of drug excreted unchanged into urine from time of dosing extrapolated to time infinity in percent of dose (Aeinf%), cumulative amount of drug excreted unchanged into urine, from time of dosing up to the collection time of the last measurable concentration (Aelast), percent of drug excreted into urine (Aelast) from time of dosing up to the collection time of the last measurable concentration in percent of dose (Aelast%), cumulative amount of drug excreted unchanged into urine, from time of dosing up to the collection time of 24 hours (Ae0-24h), Ae0-24h in percent of dose (Ae0-24h%)

    Measured: Days 1 - 4 (all periods)

  3. Plasma concentration of EPO, VEGF, reticulocytes and hepcidin

    EPO(erythropoietin), VEGF(vascular endothelial growth factor)

    Measured: Days 1 - 4 (all periods)

  4. Safety and tolerability of a single dose FG-4592

    AEs, resting vital signs, safety laboratory tests, 12-lead safety ECG, mean heart rate per hour for 24-hours

    Measured: Screening to ESV (5-9 days after the last assessment of Period 4 (or after early withdrawal))

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing FG-4592 in people with PK for FG-4592 and Healthy Subjects, run by Astellas Pharma Europe B.V. at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 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 12 Jun 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 Germany. 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?

PK after a single dose of FG-4592 measured by area under the concentration-time curve from the time of dosing extrapolated to time infinity (AUCinf), (time frame: Days 1- 4 (all periods)). The study lists 2 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 12 Jun 2014.
