What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    An AE is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.

    Measured: Up to approximately 20 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Cmax)

    The Cmax is the maximum observed serum concentration.

    Measured: Day 1: predose, end of infusion (EOI) and 8 hours (h) post dose; Day 2: 24 h post dose; Day 3: 48 h post dose; Day 4: 72 h post dose; Day 5: 96 h; Day 6: 120 h; Day 7: 144 h post dose; Days 15, 22, 29, 43, 57, 71, 85, 99, and 113

  2. Area Under the Serum Concentration Versus Time Curve from Time 0 to the Time Corresponding to the Last Quantifiable Plasma Concentration (AUC[0-last])

    The AUC(0-last) is the area under the serum concentration-time curve from time 0 to last quantifiable concentration.

    Measured: Day 1: predose, EOI and 8 h post dose; Day 2: 24 h post dose; Day 3: 48 h post dose; Day 4: 72 h post dose; Day 5: 96 h; Day 6: 120 h; Day 7: 144 h post dose; Days 15, 22, 29, 43, 57, 71, 85, 99, and 113

  3. Area Under the Serum Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC[0-infinity])

    The AUC(0-infinity) is the area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to infinite time, calculated as the sum of AUC(0-last) and C(last)/lambda(z); wherein AUC(0-last) is area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable time, C(last) is the last observed quantifiable concentration, and lambda(z) is elimination rate constant.

    Measured: Day 1: predose, EOI and 8 h post dose; Day 2: 24 h post dose; Day 3: 48 h post dose; Day 4: 72 h post dose; Day 5: 96 h; Day 6: 120 h; Day 7: 144 h post dose; Days 15, 22, 29, 43, 57, 71, 85, 99, and 113

  4. Terminal half-life (t1/2)

    Terminal half-life (t1/2) is the time measured for the serum concentration to decrease by 1 half to its original concentration. It is associated with the terminal slope of the semi logarithmic drug concentration-time curve, and is calculated as 0.693/lambda(z).

    Measured: Day 1: predose, EOI and 8 h post dose; Day 2: 24 h post dose; Day 3: 48 h post dose; Day 4: 72 h post dose; Day 5: 96 h; Day 6: 120 h; Day 7: 144 h post dose; Days 15, 22, 29, 43, 57, 71, 85, 99, and 113

  5. Total Systemic Clearance (CL)

    CL is a quantitative measure of the rate at which a drug substance is removed from the body. The total systemic clearance after intravenous dose is estimated by dividing the total administered dose by the plasma Area Under the Serum Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC[0-infinity]).

    Measured: Day 1: predose, EOI and 8 h post dose; Day 2: 24 h post dose; Day 3: 48 h post dose; Day 4: 72 h post dose; Day 5: 96 h; Day 6: 120 h; Day 7: 144 h post dose; Days 15, 22, 29, 43, 57, 71, 85, 99, and 113

  6. Volume of Distribution (Vz)

    The Vz is total volume of distribution at terminal phase after IV administration, defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired blood concentration of a drug.

    Measured: Day 1: predose, EOI and 8 h post dose; Day 2: 24 h post dose; Day 3: 48 h post dose; Day 4: 72 h post dose; Day 5: 96 h; Day 6: 120 h; Day 7: 144 h post dose; Days 15, 22, 29, 43, 57, 71, 85, 99, and 113

  7. Number of Participants with Antibodies to Guselkumab

    Number of participants with antibodies to guselkumab will be reported.

    Measured: Day 1: predose; and Days 15, 29, 57, and 113

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Guselkumab Dose 1, Guselkumab Dose 2 and Guselkumab Dose 3 in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K. at 1 site in Japan.

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 4 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 23 Jan 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 Japan. 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?

Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Up to approximately 20 weeks). 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 23 Jan 2019.
