About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Single Sequence Crossover, Study Investigating the Influence of Secukinumab Treatment on the Pharmacokinetics of Midazolam as a CYP3A4 Substrate in Patients With Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis

To determine whether secukinumab can alter the activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 using midazolam as probe substrate in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.

Read the detailed description

This will be an open-label, confirmatory study investigating potential disease-drug-drug interaction of secukinumab and midazolam in male and female patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. A total of approximately 25 patients are required to obtain at least 20 completers in the study Patients who meet the eligibility criteria at screening, will have a baseline assessment day (within 1 week prior to the start of secukinumab) during which a full midazolam PK profile after a single oral dose of 5 mg will be assessed by collecting blood over the 12 hour postdose period.

On Day 1 (Week 0), Day 8 (Week 1), Day 15 (Week 2), Day 22 (Week 3) and Day 29 (Week 4) patients will receive 300 mg s.c. secukinumab (2 injections of 150 mg s.c.). On Day 8 and on Day 36 (Week 5), patients will receive additional single doses of 5 mg oral midazolam (total of 3 single doses). The midazolam PK profile will be assessed over the 12 hour postdose period.

On those days when midazolam PK profiles are assessed, samples will be collected and analyzed for circulating IL-6, inflammatory panel (collected at screening, baseline and pre-dose Day 1 only), total IL-17A (after following initiation of secukinumab treatment), hsCRP and for 4-beta-hydroxycholesterol (exploratory endogenous phenotyping marker of CYP3A activity).

There will be an extended treatment period during which patients will receive secukinumab 300 mg s.c. at Weeks 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24.

Then there will be a follow-up period of 12 weeks following the last dose administered at Week 24. Visits will be at Weeks 28, 32 and 36.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax (maximum plasma) concentration

    Measured: Days -7, 8 and 36

  2. AUC0-12 (area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to time 12 hours )

    Measured: Days -7, 8 and 36

  3. AUClast (area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration)

    Measured: Days -7, 8 and 36

  4. AUCinf (area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity)

    Measured: Days -7, 8 and 36

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. safety and tolerability (including; Blood pressure,Pulse Rate,AEs/SAEs, Blood chemistry, Hematology, ECGs and physical exam

    Measured: Throughout the entire trial; beginning at screening through Day 253 (end of trial)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Midazolam and AIN457 in people with Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 8 sites in United States.

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 4 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 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in 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 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?

Cmax (maximum plasma) concentration (time frame: Days -7, 8 and 36). The study lists 4 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 Dec 2020.
