About this study
Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Dose Escalation Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Efficacy of SAP-001 in Gout Patients With Hyperuricemia
This is a Phase I, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo controlled, Dose-escalation study to evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Efficacy of SAP-001 in Gout Patients with Hyperuricemia. The study will be single dose ascending cohorts across three doses with a placebo control arm.
Read the detailed description
A total of 24 eligible adult subjects will be randomized in a 3:1 randomization ratio into two blinded treatment groups in the three dose cohorts with matching placebo arm. The duration of the observation would be 5 days for each subject with a single SAP-001 dosing to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and efficacy of oral SAP-001 (once daily) in adults gout patients with hyperuricemia.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing SAP-001 in people with Gout, Hyperuricemia, run by Shanton Pharma Co., Ltd. at 3 sites 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 17 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 14 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites 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. 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-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0 (time frame: 5 days). The study lists 10 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 14 Oct 2021.
