About this study

Official title: A Single-center, Randomized, Blinded, Placebo- and Active-controlled Crossover Study to Evaluate the Effect of Saroglitazar Magnesium on the QTc Interval in Healthy Volunteers

A Single-center, Randomized, Blinded, Placebo- and Active-controlled Crossover Study to Evaluate the Effect of Saroglitazar Magnesium on the QTc Interval in Healthy Volunteers

Read the detailed description

Primary Objective: This is a Phase 1, single-center, blinded (with respect to saroglitazar magnesium and placebo administration), randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, 4-period crossover study to investigate the effect of single therapeutic and supra-therapeutic (5×) doses of saroglitazar magnesium on the corrected QT (QTc) interval in healthy subjects in compliance with the current version of the International Council for Harmonisation E14 Guidelines.

After confirmation of eligibility, 52 subjects (at least 16 will be females) will be randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatment sequences using a William's design prior to study treatment administration on Day 1 of Period 1. Randomized subjects will receive each of the 4 study treatments across the 4 treatment periods separated by at least a 7-day washout period.

What is being measured

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

  1. QTcF change-from-baseline

    Linear-mixed model will be used to assess the effect of saroglitazar magnesium on cardiac repolarization on Day 1 to evaluate whether saroglitazar magnesium prolongs the QTcF when orally administered to healthy volunteers

    Measured: Pre-dose (-1.0 hr) to 24 hours post dose

  2. Saroglitazar and its metabolite saroglitazar sulfoxide plasma concentrations and placebo-corrected change-from-baseline QTcF

    Quantification of the relationship between saroglitazar and its metabolite saroglitazar sulfoxide plasma concentrations and QTcF, using concentration-effect modeling

    Measured: Pre-dose (-1.0 hr) to 24 hours post dose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Observed and change-from-baseline HR, PR, RR, QRS, and QT and ECG morphological abnormalities

    Evaluation of the effect of Saroglitazar magnesium on other ECG parameters (ventricular HR, PR, RR, QRS, QT) and ECG morphological abnormalities

    Measured: Pre-dose (-1.0 hr) to 24 hours post dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Saroglitazar magnesium 4mg, Moxifloxacin 400mg and Saroglitazar magnesium 20 mg in people with Healthy, run by Zydus Therapeutics Inc. at 1 site in India.

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 37 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 Apr 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 India. 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?

QTcF change-from-baseline (time frame: Pre-dose (-1.0 hr) to 24 hours post dose). The study lists 2 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 21 Apr 2020.
