Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Percentage of Subjects With Drug Related Adverse Events (AEs) in Part II

    Percentage of subjects with drug related adverse events (AEs) in part II is reported.

    Measured: From first dose of study medication until 11 days after the last dose of study medication, up to 12 days

  2. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of the BI 425809 in Plasma Over the Time Interval From 0 Extrapolated to Infinity (AUC 0-infinity) Part II

    Area under the concentration-time curve of the BI 425809 in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC 0-infinity) part II. After single dosing in the morning as well as in the evening.

    Measured: PK samples were taken at: 0, 0:30, 1, 2, 3, 3:30, 4, 4:30, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 34, 48, 72, 96 hours after drug administration

  3. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of the BI 425809 in Plasma Over the Time Interval From 0 to 24 Hours (AUC0-24) Part I

    Area under the concentration-time curve of the BI 425809 in plasma over the time interval from 0 to 24 hours (AUC0-24) part I. After the first dose.

    Measured: PK plasma samples were taken at: 2 hours before drug administration and 0:30, 1, 2, 3, 3:30, 4, 4:30, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 hours after the drug administration in YH and EH population

  4. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of the BI 425809 in Plasma at Steady State Over a Uniform Dosing Interval τ (AUCτ,ss) Part I

    The AUC of BI 425809 in plasma at steady state over a dosing interval (AUCτ,ss) in Part I was evaluated for all arms achieving steady state.

    For the 75 mg twice-daily multiple-dose arm in young healthy subjects (YH), steady state was not achieved due to nonlinear pharmacokinetics; therefore, AUCτ,ss was not determined. Instead, AUCτ after the final dose (AUCτ,22) was calculated, representing AUC over one dosing interval (τ; dosing interval) after the last dose on Day 14 (22nd dose), not at steady state.

    PK sampling:

    75 mg BID YH: 2 h pre-dose and 0:30, 1-6 h (including 30-minute time points), 8, 10, 12, 24-240 h, 264, 288, 312-324 h (including 30-minute time points), 336, 360, 384, 408, 432, 456, 480, 504, 528 h post-dose.

    Other arms: 0:30, 1-6 h (including 30-minute time points), 8, 10, 12, 24-240 h, 264-272 h (including 30-minute time points), 288, 360, 384, 408, 432, 456, 480, 504, and 528 h post-dose.

    Time points 264-272 h apply only to 25 mg multiple-dose arms in YH and EH.

    Measured: Up to 528 hours. The details are described in description.

  5. Maximum Measured Concentration of the BI 425809 in Plasma (Cmax) Part I

    Maximum measured concentration of the BI 425809 in plasma (Cmax) part I. After the first dose.

    Measured: PK plasma samples were taken at: 0:30, 1, 2, 3, 3:30, 4, 4:30, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 34, 48 and 58 hours after drug administration.

  6. Maximum Measured Concentration of the BI 425809 in Plasma at Steady State Over a Uniform Dosing Interval τ (Cmax,ss) Part I

    Maximum measured plasma concentration of BI 425809 at steady state over a dosing interval (Cmax,ss) in Part I was evaluated for all treatment arms achieving steady state

    For the 75 mg twice-daily multiple-dose arm in young healthy subjects (YH), steady state was not achieved due to non-linear pharmacokinetics; therefore, Cmax,ss was not determined. Instead, Cmax after the final dose (Cmax,22) was calculated, representing the maximum observed concentration following the last dose on Day 14 (22nd dose), not at steady-state

    PK sampling:

    75 mg BID YH: 2 h pre-dose and 0:30, 1-6 h (including 30-min time points), 8, 10, 12, 24-240 h, 264, 288, 312-324 h (including 30-min time points), 336, 360, 384, 408, 432, 456, 480, 504, 528 h post-dose Other arms: 0:30, 1-6 h (including 30-min time points), 8, 10, 12, 24-240 h, 264-272 h (including 30-min time points); 288, 360, 384, 408, 432, 456, 480, 504, and 528 h post-dose

    Time points 264-272 h apply only to 25 mg multiple-dose arms in YH and EH

    Measured: Up to 528 hours. The details are described in description.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 425809 in people with Healthy, run by Boehringer Ingelheim 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 10 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 13 May 2026. 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. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 May 2026). 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?

Percentage of Subjects With Drug Related Adverse Events (AEs) in Part I (time frame: From first dose of study medication until 11 days after the last dose of study medication, up to 25 days). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02337283, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 May 2026.
