About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter, Single- and Multiple-Ascending-Dose Study to Determine Initial Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of GDC-0134 in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

This first-in-human, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase I study will be conducted in participants with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to explore safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of GDC-0134. It will include three components: a Single-Ascending-Dose (SAD) stage, a Multiple-Ascending-Dose (MAD) stage, and an Open-Label Safety Expansion (OSE) stage.

Being tested
GDC-0134, Placebo, Rabeprazole, Midazolam, Caffeine
Medical subject headings

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GDC-0134, Rabeprazole and Midazolam in people with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, run by Genentech, Inc. at 10 sites in 3 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 6 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 6 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United States, Canada, Netherlands. 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?

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?

Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: From randomization up to approximately 48 months). The study lists 5 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 6 Aug 2020.
