Who cannot join

  • Known hypersensitivity to any of the excipients of the study treatment formulations.

About this study

Official title: Single-center, Open-label, Randomized, Two-way Crossover Study to Compare the Single-dose Pharmacokinetics of Pediatric Minitablet and Adult Capsule Formulations of ACT-709478 in Healthy Male Subjects

This study is for research purposes only and is not intended to treat any medical condition. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of 2 different formulations of ACT-709478 in healthy male participants. The participants will be treated in a crossover design with 2 different treatment periods. Pharmacokinetics (PK) is the study of the absorption and breakdown of the study drug in the body.

The duration of participation in this study is approximately 8 weeks from screening to the end of study visit. A screening visit is required within 21 to 3 days prior to the start of the study to determine whether the participant qualifies and is willing to enter in this research study. This study requires the participant to have two in-patient stays in the research clinic. Each in-patient stay is planned for 5 days (4 nights). Eleven days after each dose the participant will have an examination. There will be an in-between period (i.e., time between the end of period 1 and study treatment administration in Period 2) of 7 to 14 days. A safety follow-up telephone call for all participants who have received at least one study treatment will take place 30 to 40 days after the end of study examination or study discontinuation.

What is being measured

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

  1. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC 0-t).

    Measured: Multiple time points; duration for up to 264 hours in each treatment period.

  2. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC 0-inf)

    Measured: Multiple time points; duration for up to 264 hours in each treatment period.

  3. The maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Multiple time points; duration for up to 264 hours in each treatment period.

  4. The time to reach Cmax (tmax)

    Measured: Multiple time points; duration for up to 264 hours in each treatment period.

  5. The terminal elimination half-life (t1/2)

    Measured: Multiple time points; duration for up to 264 hours in each treatment period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ACT-709478 in people with Healthy Subjects, run by Idorsia Pharmaceuticals Ltd. at 1 site in Czechia.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 25 Feb 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 Czechia. 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?

The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC 0-t). (time frame: Multiple time points; duration for up to 264 hours in each treatment period.). The study lists 5 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 25 Feb 2020.
