About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Exploratory Pharmacodynamics of AUT00206 for 28 Days as Adjunctive Therapy in Patients With Recently Diagnosed Schizophrenia

This study will investigate the safety, tolerability, PK and PD profile of AUT00206 after repeated doses in patients with stable but symptomatic schizophrenia, taking one or two established anti-psychotic drugs. The subjects will undergo brain imaging, tests of cognition and tests of auditory function and electrophysiological measures in addition to routine safety monitoring. Because of the pioneering and novel mechanism of action of this drug, a key objective is to characterize this range of biomarkers which will inform the future development of the drug.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AUT00206 in people with Schizophrenia, run by Autifony Therapeutics Limited at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 8 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 31 Jul 2020. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events over 28 days treatment of AUT00206 compared to Placebo (time frame: 28 days). 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 31 Jul 2020.
