About this study

Official title: Disposition of [¹⁴C₂]-Labeled LY3039478 Following Oral Administration in Healthy Subjects

This type of study is called a radiolabeled study. For this study, LY3039478 (study drug) has been specially prepared to contain radiolabeled carbon [¹⁴C]. [¹⁴C] is a naturally occurring radioactive form of the element carbon. This study will help determine how the drug appears in the blood, urine, and stool after it is administered by mouth to healthy people. Information about any side effects that may occur will also be collected. This study will last about 10 weeks for each participant.

What is being measured

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

  1. Urinary and Fecal Excretion of Radioactivity Over Time Expressed as a Percentage of the Total Radioactive Dose Administered

    To determine the disposition of radioactivity and LY3039478 in healthy participants following oral administration of a single dose 14C-labeled LY3039478.

    Measured: Predose, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216, 240, 264, 288, and 312 hours postdose

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC[0-inf]) of LY3039478

    The AUC[0-inf]) for plasma LY3039478 was evaluated by using a combination of the linear and logarithmic trapezoidal methods (linear-log trapezoidal rule).

    Measured: Predose, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours postdose

  2. Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC[0-inf]) of Total Plasma Radioactivity

    The AUC[0-inf]) for total plasma radioactivity was evaluated by using a combination of the linear and logarithmic trapezoidal methods (linear-log trapezoidal rule).

    Measured: Predose, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours postdose

  3. Pharmacokinetics: Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of LY3039478

    The Cmax of LY3039478 was evaluated.

    Measured: Predose, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours postdose

  4. Pharmacokinetics: Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of Total Plasma Radioactivity

    Cmax of total plasma radioactivity was evaluated.

    Measured: Predose, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours postdose

  5. Total Number of Metabolites of LY3039478 in Plasma, Urine and Feces

    Following oral administration, radio high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) profiles were obtained from analysis of plasma, urine and feces.

    Measured: Predose, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours postdose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LY3039478 in people with Healthy, run by Eli Lilly and Company 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 1 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 28 Jul 2025. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Jul 2025). 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?

Urinary and Fecal Excretion of Radioactivity Over Time Expressed as a Percentage of the Total Radioactive Dose Administered (time frame: Predose, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216, 240, 264, 288, and 312 hours postdose). 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 28 Jul 2025.
