About this study

Official title: A Phase I Randomized Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of AZD6615 After Single Dosing to Healthy Subjects

This study will be a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled, single-ascending dose (SAD), sequential group study. It is a SAD study in healthy Non-Asian subjects (Part 1) and healthy Japanese subjects (Part 2) to assess the safety and tolerability of AZD6615 and to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD6615.

Read the detailed description

This study part is planned to consist of 3 cohorts of Non-Asian subjects (Part 1) and 2 cohorts of Japanese subjects (Part 2). Part 2 will be initiated no earlier than after completion of the last Safety Review Committee (SRC) review in Part 1. Healthy male and/or female subjects aged 20 to 60 years will be included in both Parts 1 and 2 of the study. Female subjects must be of non-childbearing potential. Study Part 1 is planned to be conducted in 24 subjects but may be conducted in up to 40 subjects. Study Part 2 is planned to be conducted in 16 subjects but may be conducted in up to 32 subjects.

Within each cohort of Parts 1 and 2, 6 subjects will be randomized to receive AZD6615 and 2 subjects will be randomized to receive placebo. Dosing and food intake should be supervised and documented by study staff when subjects are in the clinic.

The study will comprise of:

  • A Screening Period of maximum 28 days.
  • A Dosing Session during which subjects will be resident at the Clinical Unit from the day before IMP administration (Day -1) until at least 78 hours after Investigational medicinal product (IMP) administration; discharged on Day 4.
  • A Follow-Up Period of 12 weeks that will consist of 6 Follow-Up Visits, for which the subjects will return to the Clinical Unit at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 weeks post-dose.

Within each cohort, site personnel remain blinded until the SRC meeting.

Following review of the data, the SRC may also decide to adjust the following for subsequent cohorts:

  • The time window between the sentinel dose group and the main dose group in Part 1.
  • The length of the stay at the study site, the timing and number of assessments and/or samples.
  • The length of the follow-up period.
  • The length of the data collection period for the SRC review.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD6615 in people with Dyslipidemia, run by AstraZeneca at 2 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 6 inclusion and 11 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 was stopped early (reason given: It was decided to not run the Japanese cohorts in the study.). Results are not available in the source record.

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 subjects with adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) (time frame: From screening to 12 weeks of follow-up). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04055168, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Dec 2020.
