Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 55 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • A body mass index (BMI) between 18.0 and 30.0 kilogram per meter square (kg/m^2), inclusive (BMI = weight/height^2)
  • Healthy on the basis of physical examination, medical history, vital signs, and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed at screening and first admission (Day -1) to the clinical unit. Minor abnormalities in ECG, which are not considered to be of clinical significance by the physician investigator, are acceptable
  • Healthy on the basis of clinical laboratory tests performed at screening. If the results of the serum chemistry panel [excluding liver function tests], hematology [including coagulation], or urinalysis are outside the normal reference ranges, the participant may be included only if the investigator judges the abnormalities to be not clinically significant. This determination must be recorded in the participant's source documents and initialed/signed by the physician investigator
  • All women of child-bearing potential must have a negative highly sensitive serum (beta human chorionic gonadotropin [beta hCG]) at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test on Day -1
  • A woman must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purposes of assisted reproduction during the study and for at least 1 month after the last study drug administration

Who cannot join

  • History of or current liver or renal insufficiency; significant skin disease such as, but not limited to, dermatitis, eczema, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, drug rash, psoriasis or urticaria, significant cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic (including coagulation disorders), rheumatologic, psychiatric, or metabolic disturbances, any inflammatory illness or any other illness that the Investigator considers should exclude the participant
  • History of or current positive testing for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), Hepatitis B core (HBcAb) or hepatitis C antibody (anti-HCV) positive, or other clinically active liver disease, or tests positive for HBsAg or anti-HCV at screening
  • History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody positive, or tests positive for HIV at screening
  • History of malignancy within 5 years before screening (exceptions are squamous and basal cell carcinomas of the skin and carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or malignancy that, in the opinion of the investigator, with written concurrence with the sponsor's medical monitor, is considered cured with minimal risk of recurrence)
  • History of at least drug or alcohol use disorder according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (latest edition DSM-5) criteria within 6 months before screening

What is being measured

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

  1. Parts 1 and 3: Maximum Observed Analyte Concentration (Cmax) of Each Probe Substrate in Cocktail

    Cmax of probe substrates in cocktail containing selective probes of CYP enzymes (CYP3A, CYP2D6 and CYP2C19) will be determined.

    Measured: Predose, 15 minute (min), 30min, 45min, 1 hour (h), 1.5h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 18h on Days 1 and 12

  2. Parts 1 and 3: Area Under the Analyte Concentration-Time Curve from Time Zero to the Time of the Last Measurable Concentration (AUC[0-last]) of Each Probe Substrate in Cocktail

    AUC(0-last) of probe substrates in cocktail containing selective probes of CYP enzymes (CYP3A, CYP2D6 and CYP2C19) will be determined.

    Measured: Predose, 15min, 30min, 45min, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 18h on Days 1 and 12

  3. Parts 1 and 3: Area Under the Analyte Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC[0-infinity]) of Each Probe Substrate in Cocktail

    AUC (0-infinity) of probe substrates in cocktail containing selective probes of CYP enzymes (CYP3A, CYP2D6 and CYP2C19) will be determined.

    Measured: Predose, 15min, 30min, 45min, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 18h on Days 1 and 12

  4. Part 2: Cmax of Levonorgestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol

    Cmax is the maximum observed analyte concentration.

    Measured: Predose, 15min, 30min, 45min, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 18h on Days 1 and 14

  5. Part 2: AUC(0-last) of Levonorgestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol

    AUC(0-last) is defined as the area under the analyte concentration-time curve from time 0 to time of the last quantifiable concentration.

    Measured: Predose, 15min, 30min, 45min, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 18h on Days 1 and 14

  6. Part 2: AUC(0-infinity) of Levonorgestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol

    AUC (0-infinity) is the area under the analyte concentration-time curve from time zero to infinite time, calculated as the sum of AUC(last) and C(last)/lambda(z); wherein AUC(last) is area under the analyte 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: Predose, 15min, 30min, 45min, 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 18h on Days 1 and 14

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Parts 1, 2 and 3: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    An adverse event 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: Approximately 10 weeks

  2. Parts 1, 2 and 3: Observed Analyte Concentration Just Prior to the Beginning or at the end of a Dosing Interval (Ctrough) of JNJ-55308942

    Ctrough is the observed analyte concentration just prior to the beginning or at the end of a dosing interval in a multiple dosing regimen.

    Measured: Predose on Days 4 to 11, predose, up to 72 hours postdose on Day 12 (Parts 1 and 3); Predose on Days 5 to 13, predose, up to 120 hour postdose on Day 14 (Part 2)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JNJ-55308942 High Dose, JNJ-55308942 Low Dose and Levonorgestrel/Ethinyl Estradiol Fixed Dose combination (FDC) in people with Healthy, run by Janssen-Cilag International NV at 1 site in Belgium.

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 5 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 27 Apr 2025. 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 Belgium. 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?

Parts 1 and 3: Maximum Observed Analyte Concentration (Cmax) of Each Probe Substrate in Cocktail (time frame: Predose, 15 minute (min), 30min, 45min, 1 hour (h), 1.5h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 18h on Days 1 and 12). 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 27 Apr 2025.
