About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-label, Single Centre Study Investigating the PK, Safety and PD of a Single Dose of Teverelix TFA, a GnRH Antagonist, Via s.c. or i.m. Route of Administration in Healthy Male Volunteers

A Phase I, open-label, single centre study investigating the pharmacokinetics, safety and pharmacodynamics of a single dose of teverelix TFA, a gonadotrophin releasing hormone antagonist, via subcutaneous or intramuscular route of administration in healthy male volunteers

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of the study is:

  • To characterise the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of teverelix following single dose, subcutaneous (s.c.) and intramuscular (i.m.) administration of teverelix TFA in healthy male subjects

The secondary objectives of the study are:

  • To assess the safety and tolerability of teverelix TFA after single s.c. and i.m. injections in healthy male subjects
  • To evaluate pharmacodynamics (PD) effects of teverelix following single dose, s.c. and i.m. administration of teverelix TFA in healthy male subjects

What is being measured

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

  1. AUC0-t

    Area under the concentration time-curve from time zero up to the last measurable concentration at time point t Area under the concentration time-curve from time zero up to the last measurable concentration at time point t Area under the concentration time-curve from time zero up to the last measurable concentration at time point t

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. AUC0-t1

    Area under the concentration time-curve from time zero up to concentration at time point t1 after which the concentrations start to rise again towards a second peak, t1 will be determined after review of the concentration-time profiles (immediate release component of total observed AUC)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. AUCt1-t

    Area under the concentration time-curve from time point t1 up to time point t (slow release component of total observed AUC)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Systemic tolerability - Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

    Systemic tolerability assessed by incidence of treatment emergent AEs (TEAEs)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Local tolerability - Standardised Injection Site Reaction Scoring System (4-point) plus photography

    The injections sites will be assessed (score 0 = none; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe and undesirable) for signs of erythema, swelling, bruising, itching, pain and other signs of local reactions. Subjects will be monitored for duration of symptoms, sequelae and impact on activities of daily living (ADL). Photographs of all injection sites will be taken at all study visits post-administration

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Cardiac assessments

    The following 12-lead ECG parameters will be assessed: PR interval, QRS interval, RR interval, QT interval and QTc interval (QTcF)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. 24 hour Holter monitoring

    Triplicate 10 second 12-lead ECGs will be extracted at time points prior to PK sampling times (Day 1) and matched timepoints (Day -1) in order to facilitate concentration-QTc effect modelling

    Measured: Day -1 to Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing teverelix TFA in people with Healthy, run by Antev Ltd. at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 25 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 17 Mar 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 Kingdom. 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?

AUC0-t (time frame: 12 weeks). The study lists 12 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 17 Mar 2020.
