About this study

Official title: Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic Profile and Ex-vivo Antitubercular Activity of PBTZ169 Formulated as Spray- Dried Dispersion Versus Native Crystal Powder: Single Ascending Doses, Randomized, Placebo- Controlled, Cross-over Phase Ia Trial in Healthy Volunteers

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose study conducted at one study center in Switzerland.

Four (4) panels (A, B, C and D) of 8 male subjects (6 active and 2 placebo) each undergoing 2 investigation periods and receiving either single doses of PBTZ169 at increasing dose levels or a matching placebo.

Read more

Subjects will participate in only one panel. Blocks of 4 subjects (3 under active treatment, 1 under placebo) will be investigated in parallel. Panels A and B are interleaved.

Safety will be assessed throughout the study; serial ECGs and serial blood samples will be collected for the safety and PK assessment of PBTZ169.

Dose escalation will be allowed once the Trial Safety Board has determined that adequate safety and tolerability after panel B and panel C completion has been demonstrated to permit proceeding to the next panel.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability of increasing single oral doses of PBTZ169 Formulation in healthy male adult subjects evaluated by Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs).

    Evaluation by thorough monitoring of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) following doses of PBTZ169 Formulation, PBTZ169 NCP or placebo

    Measured: Days 0-2

  2. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of single oral doses of PBTZ169 using Cmax

    Determination of non-compartmental PK parameter Maximum Plasma Concentration [Cmax] after determination of the amount of the parent compound and its known metabolites in plasma samples

    Measured: Days 0-2

  3. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of single oral doses of PBTZ169 using Tmax

    Determination of non-compartmental PK parameter Time of maximum observed Plasma Concentration [Tmax] after determination of the amount of the parent compound and its known metabolites in plasma samples

    Measured: Days 0-2

  4. Pharmacodynamics (PD) exploration after single oral doses of PBTZ169 Formulation and NCP

    Determination of ex-vivo antitubercular activity of serum samples obtained from subjects

    Measured: Days 0-1

  5. Broncho-alveolar passage exploration after single oral doses of PBTZ169 Formulation and NCP (tentative)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PBTZ169 Formulation and PBTZ169 NCP in people with Tuberculosis and Tuberculosis, Pulmonary, run by Innovative Medicines for Tuberculosis at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 22 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 13 Jul 2018. 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 Switzerland. 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?

Safety and tolerability of increasing single oral doses of PBTZ169 Formulation in healthy male adult subjects evaluated by Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs). (time frame: Days 0-17). 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 13 Jul 2018.
