About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single-dose Dose Escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of JS002 (Recombinant Humanized Anti-PCSK9 Monoclonal Antibody) Injection in Healthy Subjects.

JS002 is a recombinant humanized Anti- PCSK9 monoclonal antibody; This is a phase Ia, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of a single subcutaneous injection of JS002 in healthy subjects.

In this study, the dose ascending design includes five dose level cohorts (15 mg, 50 mg, 150 mg, 300 mg, and 450 mg) administered by subcutaneous injection, and three intravenous administration cohorts (15 mg, 150 mg, and 450 mg). Each cohort will enroll 8 to 12 subjects (distribution of study drug and placebo in a 3:1 ratio).

The duration of the study is 84-day per subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JS002 in people with Hypercholesterolemia, run by Shanghai Junshi Bioscience Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 7 inclusion and 25 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 13 Dec 2019. 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 China. 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 adverse events(SAE, drug-related (S)AE etc)based on physical examinations, vital signs, 12 lead ECGs , laboratory tests and injection site reactions. (time frame: Up to 84 days after dose administration). 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 13 Dec 2019.
