Who may be able to join

  • Participant must be a Japanese participant who has resided outside Japan for no more than 5 years and whose parents and grandparents are Japanese as determined by participant's verbal report
  • Participant must be healthy on the basis of a medical evaluation that reveals the absence of any clinically relevant abnormality and includes a physical examination (including height and body weight measurement and skin examination), medical history, vital signs (body temperature, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, orthostatic hypotension, and respiratory rate), and the results of blood biochemistry, blood coagulation and hematology tests, a urinalysis, and a hematest performed at Screening, on Day -1, or Day 1 pre-dose, whichever is applicable.

About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Randomized, Single Ascending Dose Study to Investigate Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of JNJ 53718678 in Healthy Japanese Adult Subjects

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of three dosages (250, 500, and 1000 milligram [mg], or maximum tolerated dose [MTD]) of JNJ 53718678 when administered as single dose in fasting conditions in healthy Japanese adult participants in 3 cohorts.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, single center, double-blind (study in which neither the researchers nor the participants know what treatment the participants are receiving), placebo-controlled (study in which the experimental treatment or procedure is compared to placebo treatment), randomized (study medication assigned to participants by chance) study in healthy Japanese adult participants residing outside of Japan. The study will consist of a Screening phase, an In-clinic treatment phase, and a follow-up phase. The study duration for each participant will be approximately 6 weeks from Screening (Day -28 to Day -2) to follow up visit (Day 10 to 14). Participants will be randomly assign to receive JNJ 53718678 or placebo, at planned dose of 250, 500 and 1000 milligram (mg). Planned doses will be stepwise escalated, if the safety and tolerability of the preceding dose(s) are found to be acceptable, and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is not reached. De-escalation may be performed in order to study an intermediate dose. The safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of JNJ-53718678 will primarily be evaluated. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    The Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  2. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax)

    The Tmax is defined as actual sampling time to reach maximum observed JNJ 53718678 concentration.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  3. Time to Last Quantifiable Plasma Concentration (Tlast)

    The Tlast is the time to last observed quantifiable plasma concentration.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  4. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Time (AUC [0-last])

    The AUC (0-last) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable time.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  5. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC[0-infinity])

    The AUC (0-infinity) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinite time, calculated as the sum of AUC(last) and C(last)/lambda(z); wherein AUC(last) is area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable time, C(last) is the last observed quantifiable concentration, and lambda(z) is elimination rate constant.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  6. Apparent Initial Elimination Rate Constant (lambda [alpha])

    Apparent initial elimination rate constant, determined by linear regression of the data points within the first elimination phase of the ln-linear plasma concentration-time curve.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  7. Elimination Rate Constant (Lambda[z])

    Lambda(z) is first-order elimination rate constant associated with the terminal portion of the curve, determined as the negative slope of the terminal log-linear phase of the drug concentration-time curve.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  8. Apparent Initial Elimination Half-life (t1/2[alpha])

    Apparent initial elimination half-life is calculated as 0.693/lambda(alpha).

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  9. Elimination Half-Life (t1/2)

    The elimination half-life (t1/2) is the time measured for the plasma concentration to decrease by 1 half to its original concentration. It is associated with the terminal slope of the semi logarithmic drug concentration-time curve, and is calculated as 0.693/lambda(z).

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  10. Total Apparent Clearance (CL/F)

    Clearance of a drug is a measure of the rate at which a drug is metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes. Clearance obtained after oral dose (apparent oral clearance) is influenced by the fraction of the dose absorbed. Drug clearance is a quantitative measure of the rate at which a drug substance is removed from the blood.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  11. Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vd/F)

    Volume of distribution is defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired plasma concentration of a drug. Apparent volume of distribution after subcutaneous dose (Vd/F) is influenced by the fraction absorbed.

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post dose

  12. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    An adverse event is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.

    Measured: From sign of informed consent up to end of study (Day 14)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JNJ 53718678 in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Sciences Ireland UC 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 11 Jul 2017. 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?

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?

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) (time frame: Up to 72 hours post dose). The study lists 12 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 11 Jul 2017.
