About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b/2a, Randomized, Multi-center, Open-label, Fixed-sequence Study to Evaluate the Effect of Oral SYN-004 on the Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous Ceftriaxone in Healthy Adult Subjects With a Functioning Ileostomy

A Phase 1b/2a, Randomized, Multi-Center, Open-Label, Fixed-Sequence Study to Evaluate the Effect of Oral SYN-004 on the Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous Ceftriaxone in Healthy Adult Subjects with a Functioning Ileostomy.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1b/2a, randomized, multi-center, open-label study. Twenty otherwise healthy subjects between the ages of 18 and 80 years, inclusive, with functioning ileostomies were planned to be enrolled. In the first treatment period (Period 1) all subjects received an IV infusion of 1 g ceftriaxone. Subjects had a 3 - 7 day washout period between Period 1 and Period 2. In the second treatment period (Period 2) all subjects received an IV infusion of 1 g ceftriaxone and 2 oral doses of either 75 or 150 mg of SYN-004, according to the randomization schedule, which were administered 30 minutes before and 5.5 hours after the start of the ceftriaxone infusion.

Being tested
Period 1 - Treatment Sequence AB, Period 1 - Treatment Sequence AC, Period 2 - Treatment Sequence AB, Period 2 - Treatment Sequence AC

What is being measured

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

  1. Ceftriaxone PK Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) With (Period 2) and Without (Period 1) SYN-004.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  2. Ceftriaxone PK Time to Reach Cmax (Tmax) With (Period 2) and Without (Period 1) SYN-004.

    Samples were collected at 0.25 h, 0.5 through 2 h, and 3 through 7 h after the infusion start. Standard deviations may be 0 if all collected T max values occur at the same time.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  3. Ceftriaxone PK Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUCt) With (Period 2) and Without (Period 1) SYN-004.

    Measured: 2 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Period 1 - Treatment Sequence AB, Period 1 - Treatment Sequence AC and Period 2 - Treatment Sequence AB in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Theriva Biologics, Inc. at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 9 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 27 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Canada, United States. 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 11 Jan 2017). 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?

Ceftriaxone PK Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) With (Period 2) and Without (Period 1) SYN-004. (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 NCT02419001, 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 27 Nov 2018.
