About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Dose-escalation Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Oral Doses of LHF-535 (LHF-535-SDD) in Healthy Participants

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a daily oral dose of LHF-535 administered for 14 days to healthy participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple dose study to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple doses of orally administered LHF-535 in 24 to 32 healthy adult participants. Three successive escalating cohorts, each containing 8 participants, are planned. Within each cohort, 6 participants will be randomized to receive an oral dose of LHF-535 once daily for 14 days, and 2 will be randomized to receive an oral dose of placebo once daily for 14 days. After a screening period of up to 28 days, all participants will be confined to the study center from 1 day prior to dosing until at least 24 hours after the 14th day of dosing. Participants will return for follow-up evaluations on Day 17 and Day 21 (72 and 168 hours after last dose, respectively) and on Day 42. After each cohort, safety data through Day 17 and PK data through Day 7 will be reviewed by a blinded Safety Committee prior to dosing of the next cohort. The Safety Committee is charged with making one of the following three recommendations: (1) proceed with dose escalation as planned, (2) continue the study with modification (e.g., proceed with the next cohort at a lower dose level than planned), or (3) suspend the study. An additional cohort of 8 participants may be added to evaluate dosing for future studies, at the discretion of the Sponsor, in consultation with the Safety Committee.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LHF-535 in people with Healthy, run by Kineta Inc. 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 8 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 9 Jul 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 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. 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?

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 as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0 (time frame: 42 days). 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 9 Jul 2020.
