About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Single-Ascending Dose (SAD) and Multiple- Ascending Dose (MAD) Study of CNM-Au8 in Healthy Male and Female Volunteers

This is a Phase 1, First-Time-In-Humans, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, escalating single- and multiple-dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of CNM-Au8 in healthy male and female volunteers. There will be 2 phases to this study: a single ascending dose (SAD) phase and a multiple ascending dose (MAD) phase. The SAD Phase will be conducted first followed by the MAD phase of the study.

Read the detailed description

SAD Phase:

A total of 8 subjects will be randomly assigned in a 3:1 ratio to receive a single dose of either CNM-Au8 (n=6) or placebo (n=2) at an initial dose level of 15 mg CNM-Au8. Additional cohorts of 8 subjects will be enrolled to investigate escalating single doses of CNM-Au8 at 30, 60, and 90 mg. Cohorts will be balanced by sex with no more than 2/3rd of subjects being of one sex.

MAD Phase:

A total of 12 subjects will be randomly assigned in a 3:1 ratio to receive a multiple dose of either CNM-Au8 (n=9) or placebo (n=3) once daily for 21 days at an initial dose level of 15 mg CNM-Au8. Additional cohorts of 12 subjects will be enrolled to investigate escalating multiple doses of CNM-Au8 at 30, 60, and 90 mg CNM Au8 administered once daily for 21 days. Cohorts will be balanced by sex with no more than 2/3rd of subjects being of one sex.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CNM-Au8 in people with Healthy Volunteers - Male and Female, run by Clene Nanomedicine at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 9 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 3 Jun 2019. 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 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?

Treatment emergent adverse and serious adverse events (time frame: 49 days). 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 3 Jun 2019.
