About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, and Food Effect of Single Ascending Doses and Multiple Ascending Doses of EHP-101 in Healthy Subjects

The study will assess the safety and tolerability, pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic profiles, and food effect of single ascending doses and multiple ascending doses (7 consecutive days) after daily oral administration in healthy male and female subjects.

Read the detailed description

This Phase 1, single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will be conducted in 2 parts: the single ascending dosing (SAD) will constitute Part 1 and the multiple ascending dosing (MAD) will constitute Part 2. In Part 1 (ie, SAD) of the study, up to 64 eligible subjects will be randomized with an allocation ratio of 3:1 to receive EHP-101 Liquid or matching placebo within one of up to 8 sequential cohorts; Sentinel subjects (1 receiving EHP-101 Liquid and 1 receiving placebo) will be dosed prior to dosing the remaining 6 subjects to allow for observation of adverse reactions before exposing the Investigational Product (IP) to a greater number of subjects, in the SAD cohorts. In Part 2 of the study, up to 40 eligible subjects will be randomized with an allocation ratio of 4:1 to receive EHP 101 Liquid or matching placebo within one of up to 4 cohorts. Dose-escalations, initiation of a single-dose food effect cross-over investigation and the start of the MAD part of the study will be coordinated by a Safety Review Committee (SRC) following review of available safety data.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EHP-101 Liquid single doseDrug

    One single oral administration with EHP-101 liquid formulation. The doses will be ascending per cohort from 0.91 mg to 200 mg. The initially planned once daily dose regimen may be modified by the Safety Review Committee based on emerging PK data, eg, assigned dose levels may be divided into 2 doses administered 12 hours apart (twice a day).

  • EHP-101 Liquid multiple dosesDrug

    One single daily administration with EHP-101 liquid formulation during 7 consecutive days. The doses will be ascending per cohort. Each ascending level will not exceed the tested dose levels in the single dose part of the study. The initially planned once daily dose regimen may be modified by the Safety Review Committee based on emerging PK data, eg, assigned dose levels may be divided into 2 doses administered 12 hours apart (twice a day)

  • Matching placeboDrug

    Oral liquid administration daily

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including serious adverse events (SAEs) following single and multiple ascending oral doses for 30 days after dosing.

    This safety outcome combines the measure of the number of subjects experiencing adverse events (AEs), the nature and severity of those AEs and their relationship to the study treatments.

    Measured: From the time of the first dose and continued until 30 days after

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing EHP-101 Liquid single dose and EHP-101 Liquid multiple doses in people with Healthy, run by Emerald Health Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in Australia.

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 6 inclusion and 19 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 21 Oct 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 Australia. 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 treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including serious adverse events (SAEs) following single and multiple ascending oral doses for 30 days after dosing. (time frame: From the time of the first dose and continued until 30 days after). 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 21 Oct 2019.
