About this study

Official title: 28-Day Repeat-Dose, Dose Escalation Safety and Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics Study of 11-β Methyl Nortestosterone Dodecylcarbonate (11β-MNTDC) in Healthy Men

This is a Phase I multicenter, double-blind, repeat dose, dose-escalating study, in healthy men to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of 11-β Methyl Nortestosterone Dodecylcarbonate (11β-MNTDC).

Read the detailed description

This repeat dose, dose-ranging study will be conducted at two centers: the Los Angeles Biomedical Research Institute at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center and the University of Washington.

Two doses of 11β-MNTDC (200 mg and 400 mg) were selected for a dose-escalating 28-day repeat dose study. Twenty subjects will complete this study at each of the 11β-MNTDC (15 on 11β-MNTDC and 5 on placebo) yielding a total of 40 completed subjects (30 on 11β-MNTDC and 10 on placebo) across both sites. Safety will be assessed in subjects receiving the lower dosage before additional men receive the higher dose for 28 days. In addition to safety and tolerability, suppression of serum T, calculated free T, E2, gonadotropins (LH \& FSH), and SHBG will also be assessed as secondary pharmacodynamic (PD) endpoints. The 24-hour detailed PK of 11β-MNTDC will be assessed on Days 1 and 28. Trough levels of 11β-MNTDC will be obtained throughout the 28-day treatment period, at 48 and 72 hours (Days 30 and 31) after the last dose and at the End of Study visit (between Days 70-76).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 11β-methyl-nortestosterone-dodecylcarbonate in people with Healthy Men and Male Contraception, run by Premier Research at 2 sites 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 11 inclusion and 29 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Incidence of treatment emergent adverse events (safety and tolerability) of repeated daily oral dosing of 11β-MNTDC. (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 19 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 12 Aug 2019.
