About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo- Controlled, Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetic Study of Escalating Single Oral TAK-648 Doses in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of TAK-648 when administered as a single oral dose of TAK-648 solution at escalating dose levels in healthy participants.

Read the detailed description

This was a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-center, single-dose study in healthy participants. The study is the first TAK-648 study in humans and is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of a single dose of TAK-648 to healthy participants.

The compound being tested in this study is TAK-648. TAK-648 is being tested to find a safe and well-tolerated single dose.

This study measured how much of the study drug got into the blood stream and how long it took the body to get rid of it. Information about any side effects that may have occurred was also collected. This study was a randomized dose-rising study which means that the first group of research participants was assigned by chance to receive either the study drug or placebo. Placebo is a solution that looks like the study drug but has no active ingredient. The lowest dose of the study drug or placebo was given to the 1st group of participants (1st cohort) and a higher dose was given to the next group until all the doses of the study drug were tested. TAK-648 was dosed in 5 sequential cohorts with escalating doses from the lowest dose given in Cohort 1 to higher doses given in the subsequent cohort. Doses could be adjusted based on available safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) data.

Approximately 40 healthy male and female participants were planned for enrollment with 8 subjects planned (6 randomized to TAK-648 and 2 randomized to placebo) for each cohort. The study included 5 cohorts.

This single-center trial was conducted in the United States. The overall time to participate in this study was up to 45 days. Participants made multiple visits to the clinic, including one 5-day period of confinement to the clinic. All participants were contacted by telephone 14 days after the last dose of study drug and on Day 84 (+/-2 days) for a follow-up assessment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Who Have at Least One Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)

    An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 14

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Meet the Markedly Abnormal Criteria, for Safety Laboratory Tests at Least Once Post-dose

    The percentage of participants with any markedly abnormal standard safety laboratory values (chemistry, hematology and urinalysis) collected throughout study.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 4

  3. Percentage of Participants Who Meet the Markedly Abnormal Criteria for Vital Signs Measurements at Least Once Post-dose

    Vital signs will include body temperature (oral), sitting blood pressure (after the participant has rested for at least 5 minutes), respiration rate and pulse (bpm).

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 4

  4. Percentage of Participants With at Least One Occurrence of Severe Hypoglycemia Post-dose

    Severe hypoglycemia is defined as an event requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 4

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration for TAK-648

    Measured: Multiple time-points (up to 72 hours) post-dose

  2. Tmax: Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for TAK-648

    Measured: Multiple time-points (up to 72 hours) post-dose

  3. AUClast: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration for TAK-648

    Measured: Multiple time-points (up to 72 hours) post-dose

  4. AUC∞: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity for TAK-648

    Measured: Multiple time-points (up to 72 hours) post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TAK-648 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Takeda.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 13 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Jul 2016). 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?

Percentage of Participants Who Have at Least One Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) (time frame: Day 1 to Day 14). 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 13 Jul 2016.
