About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Single Ascending Dose Study With Lurasidone Injectable Suspension to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics in Subjects With Schizophrenia

A study to determine the maximum tolerated dose of an investigational drug in subjects with schizophrenia

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, inpatient, single ascending dose (SAD) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of lurasidone injectable suspension in subjects with schizophrenia. This study will determine the minimum intolerable dose (MID), the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of lurasidone injectable suspension, and characterize the PK profiles of lurasidone and its metabolites in serum (ID-14283, ID-14326, ID-11614, ID-20219, and ID-20220) and urine (ID-14283, ID-14326, and ID-11614) in this subject population. The potential effects of gender on the PK of lurasidone injectable suspension and its metabolites will also be evaluated when applicable.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing DSP-1349M in people with Schizophrenia, run by Sumitomo Pharma America, Inc. at 1 site 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 17 inclusion and 32 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 8 May 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 May 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and Adverse Events (AEs ) Leading to Study Discontinuation (time frame: Day 61). The study lists 3 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 8 May 2020.
