About this study

Official title: A Single-Center, Randomized, Open-Label, 2-Period Complete Crossover Study to Compare the Bioavailability of a Capsule Formulation of LGD-6972 to an Oral Solution Formulation in Healthy Adult Subjects

The purpose of this study is to compare relative oral bioavailability of a capsule formulation of LGD-6972 to a solution formulation of LGD-6972.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, randomized, open-label, single dose study conducted in a 2-way crossover design.

A total of 8 subjects will be enrolled in the study. The duration of participation for each subject will be approximately 36 days, not including a Screening Period of up to 30 days.

Each treatment period, subjects will be admitted to the study site on Day -1 and observed through the morning of Day 3 (48-hour post-dose assessment). Over 2 treatment periods, subjects will receive each of the following treatments as a single dose orally, under fasting conditions, per the randomization (4 subjects per treatment in each treatment period:

Treatment A - 15 mg of LGD-6972 as capsules

Treatment B - 15 mg LGD-6972 as solution

Serial blood samples will be collected through 48 hours following each dose to determine the concentration of LGD 6972 in plasma. Safety assessments will also occur during this time. Subjects will be discharged from the study site after the 48 hour assessments and return to the study site on Days 4, 7, and 14 for follow up procedures. Subjects will return to the study site for the second treatment period after an additional 7 days. Subjects will be discharged from the study after returning to the study site on Day 14 of the second treatment period.

Being tested
LGD-6972 Solution, LGD-6972 Capsules
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetics Analysis- Area Under the Concentration Curve (AUC)

    AUC: ratio: medium test form to reference form

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1,2,4,6,8,10,12,16,24,36,48,72 hrs, 7 and 14 days post dose

  2. Pharmacokinetics Analysis- Maximum Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax: ratio: medium test form to reference form

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1,2,4,6,8,10,12,16,24,36,48,72 hrs, 7 and 14 days post dose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Severity of all Adverse Events graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)

    The severity of all adverse events will be graded according to the CTCAE version 4.0 from dosing until 14 days post-dose

    Measured: Day -1, 24, 48, 72hrs, and 7day and 14day post dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LGD-6972 Solution and LGD-6972 Capsules in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), run by Ligand Pharmaceuticals at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 12 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 18 May 2016. 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 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?

Pharmacokinetics Analysis- Area Under the Concentration Curve (AUC) (time frame: Pre-dose, 1,2,4,6,8,10,12,16,24,36,48,72 hrs, 7 and 14 days post dose). The study lists 2 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 18 May 2016.
