    For assessment of safety and tolerability of BI 474121 the percentage of participants with drug-related adverse events (AE) was calculated.

    All AEs occurring between first drug intake till 7 days after last drug intake were assigned to the randomised treatment.

    Measured: From drug administration until 7 days after drug administration, 7 days.

  2. Bioavailability (BA): Area Under the Concentration-time Curve of BI 474121 in Plasma Over the Time Interval From 0 to the Last Quantifiable Data Point (AUC0-tz).

    Area under the concentration-time curve of BI 474121 in plasma over the time interval from 0 to the last quantifiable data point (AUC0-tz) was analyzed after single dose administration of BI 474121 as: an oral solution in fasted conditions (reference treatment), an uncoated tablet in fed conditions (treatment 1) and an uncoated tablet in fasted conditions (treatment 2).

    The geometric mean and geometric coefficient of variation were calculated by noncompartmental analysis.

    Area under the concentration-time curve of BI 474121 in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-∞).

    The geometric mean and geometric coefficient of variation were calculated by noncompartmental analysis.

Individual data sharing
No: Clinical studies sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim, phases I to IV, interventional and non-interventional, are in scope for sharing of the raw clinical study data and clinical study documents. Exceptions might apply, e.g. studies in products where Boehringer Ingelheim is not the license holder; studies regarding pharmaceutical formulations and associated analytical methods, and studies pertinent to pharmacokinetics using human biomaterials; studies conducted in a single center or targeting rare diseases (in case of low number of patients and therefore limitations with anonymization).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 474121 tablet and BI 474121 oral solution in people with Healthy, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 1 site in Germany.

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 4 inclusion and 34 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 26 Mar 2024. 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 Germany. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Mar 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Single Rising Dose (SRD): Percentage of Subjects With Drug-related Adverse Events. (time frame: From drug administration until 7 days after drug administration, 7 days.). The study lists 3 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 26 Mar 2024.
