About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Single Center, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single Ascending Dose, Pharmacokinetic and Safety Study of PTl-125 in Healthy Volunteers

A Phase I, Single Center, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single Ascending Dose, Pharmacokinetic and Safety Study of PTl-125 in Healthy Volunteers

Read the detailed description

This was a Phase I, single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose (SAD) study in healthy volunteers, 18 to 45 years of age. A total of twenty-four (24) subjects were enrolled into the study in one of three dose cohorts. Each cohort contained eight subjects; six subjects received PTI-125 and two received placebo. Three doses of PTI-125 oral solution (50, 100, and 200 mg) or placebo solution were administered to respective cohorts.

The study included a screening period (Day -28 to Day -1), an inpatient treatment period (Day 0 through Day 4), and a follow-up visit (Day 7). Subjects reported to the clinic on the day before dosing and were randomized to receive either a single dose of orally administered PTI-125 or placebo. Each dose was administered following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours.

For each dose level, dosing was staggered such that two subjects (one active and one placebo) were dosed prior to the rest of the group. After a minimum of 24 hours and review of all 24-hour safety assessments (electrocardiogram [ECG], a brief physical examination, vital signs, and laboratory assessments) an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board/Data Monitoring Committee (DSMB/DMC) determined whether the remaining 6 subjects were to be dosed.

Pharmacokinetic blood samples were obtained prior to dosing and at specified intervals during the study (0-72 hours post-dose). Blood draws for laboratory testing were performed prior to dosing and at 24 hours post dose. After safety assessments of ECG, vital signs, and a brief physical exam at 72 hours, subjects were discharged from the clinic and returned 7 days post-dose for a final safety assessment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 50 mg PTI-125, 100 mg PTI-125 and 200 mg PTI-125 in people with Alzheimer Disease, Early Onset and Alzheimer Disease, run by Pain Therapeutics 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 9 inclusion and 13 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 10 May 2021. 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 10 May 2021). 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?

Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) (time frame: Blood samples will be drawn on Day 1 after dosing at 20, 40, and 60 minutes and at 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours.). The study lists 11 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 10 May 2021.
