Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, double-blind, sequential, dose-escalation, Phase 1 trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of verdinexor. Verdinexor or placebo will be given on Days 1 and 3 to healthy adult participants.

Cohorts of 8 participants each (6 active, 2 placebo) will be sequentially administered verdinexor or placebo (one dose on Day 1 and one dose on Day 3) using a dose-escalation scheme. A conservative, sequential, dose-escalation strategy employing decreasing escalation increments will be used.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs)

    An AE was defined as the appearance of (or worsening of any pre-existing) undesirable sign, symptom, or medical condition that occur after participant's signed informed consent obtained. A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any AE, occurring at any dose (including after the informed consent form was signed and prior to dosing) that and regardless of causality that: results in death, was life-threatening (participant was at immediate risk of death from event as it occurred), requires in-patient hospitalization (formal admission to a hospital for medical reasons) or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect. TEAE was defined as any AE with onset or worsening of a pre-existing condition on or after the first administration of study treatment through 30 days following last dose or any event considered drug-related by the investigator through the end of the study.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to Day 33

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to the Last Non-zero Concentration (AUC0-t) of Verdinexor

    AUC0-t was defined as area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to the last non-zero concentration

    Measured: Days 1 and 3: pre-dose, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 (only for Day 3) hours post-dose

  2. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Extrapolated to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of Verdinexor

    AUC0-inf was defined as area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (extrapolated). It was calculated as AUC0-t + Ct/kel, where: Ct = the last observed non-zero concentration, kel = elimination rate constant.

  7. Elimination Half-life (t1/2) of Verdinexor

    t1/2 was defined as elimination half-life, it was calculated as ln(2)/kel.

    Measured: Days 1 and 3: pre-dose, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 (only for Day 3) hours post-dose

  14. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Verdinexor

    MTD was defined as the dose level tested in the cohort immediately preceding a cohort where one or more dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed. A DLT was defined as any AE or abnormal laboratory value that the Investigator suspected was probably related to verdinexor that was severe in intensity or serious or Indicative of an unacceptable risk to additional participants in the study in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration up to Day 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Verdinexor in people with Healthy, run by Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc at 1 site in Australia.

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 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2023. 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 Australia. 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 Apr 2021). 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?

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs) (time frame: From start of study drug administration up to Day 33). 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 Jan 2023.
