Who may be able to join

  • Healthy Subjects (Parts 1 \& 2)
  • Eligible healthy subjects must meet all of the following criteria to quality for enrollment in this study:
  • Healthy male and female subjects between 18 and 60 years of age (inclusive). Healthy status, as determined by the investigator, will be based on medical and surgical history, as well as a complete physical examination including vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG), and laboratory test results.

Female subjects of childbearing potential (including perimenopausal women who have had menstrual bleeding within 1 year) must be using a method of birth control considered to be appropriate by the investigator (eg, abstinence, double barrier methods, hormonal contraceptives, or partner with vasectomy) for the entire duration of the trial. Female subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use appropriate birth control from the time of Screening until at least 1 month after their last dose of study drug.
  • Women are considered to be not of childbearing potential if they are postmenopausal (defined as amenorrheic for ≥12 months with a confirmed follicle stimulating hormone [FSH] ≥ 40 mIU/mL) or if they have been surgically sterilized.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of VS 105 Following Oral Administration in Healthy and Hemodialysis Subjects

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK following single and multiple ascending dose administration of VS-105 in healthy subjects and patients with chronic kidney disease stage 5D (CKD-5D) on hemodialysis.

Read the detailed description

This is a first in human, 3 part, single and multiple ascending dose study in healthy subjects and subjects with end stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis (HD). A Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) will evaluate safety data from each dose cohort before proceeding with the subsequent cohort. The SMC will also review data from each Part of the study before proceeding to the next scheduled Part.

In Part 1, single ascending doses (SAD) of VS 105 will be administered to approximately 5 dose cohorts of 8 healthy subjects each. In Part 2, multiple ascending doses (MAD) of VS 105 will be administered to approximately 3 dose cohorts of 8 healthy subjects each. VS 105 doses for MAD cohorts in Part 2 will be determined by the SMC and based on results from Part 1.

In Part 3, MAD of VS 105 will be administered to approximately 3 successive dose cohorts that will each include 4 subjects with ESRD requiring HD. VS 105 doses used in Part 3 will be selected by the SMC based on review of safety and/or pharmacokinetic (PK) results from Part 1 and Part 2.

Parts 1 \& 2 of the study will assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of ascending doses of VS 105 to determine the dose range that is safe and well tolerated in healthy subjects.

Part 3 of the study will assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of various doses of VS 105 in subjects with ESRD requiring HD (ie, HD subjects), who represent the target population with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study of Chronic-kidney Disease Stage 5D on Stable Hemodialysis, run by Vidasym, Inc. 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 24 inclusion and 32 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 7 Oct 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 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?

Safety and tolerability of single and multiple ascending doses of VS 105 administered orally to healthy and HD subjects (numbers and percentages of adverse events). (time frame: 3 weeks). The study lists 6 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 7 Oct 2019.
