About this study

Official title: Open-label, Crossover, Food Effect Study to Evaluate the Single Dose Pharmacokinetics of CT-044, a Reactive Species Decomposition Accelerant, in Healthy Human Volunteers

This open-label study will be conducted to assess the bioavailability and PK of oral single doses of CT-044 following administration with and without food and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CT-044 when given with and without food.

Read the detailed description

The food effect study will be an open-label, 2-sequence, balanced crossover design in 12 subjects previously untreated with CT-044.

Eligible subjects will be admitted to the Clinical Trial Unit on the day prior to dosing and remain in house until Day 3. Each subject will receive CT-044 single oral dose once under fed conditions (i.e., a high fat meal per FDA recommendations) and once in the fasted state.

9 Subjects will return to the Clinical Trial Unit on an outpatient basis for follow-up. Subjects will return to the Clinical Trial Unit to be treated by the second sequence after a washout period of at least 7 days, but no more than 14 days. All procedures will be repeated for the second treatment sequence. When possible, the procedures conducted at the 144-hour follow-up visit for the first sequence may serve as baseline for the second sequence of the crossover.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of the maximum drug concentration

    Following administration with and without food (Cmax) of oral single dose of CT-044

    Measured: 7 days

  2. Comparison of the Time of maximum drug concentration (tmax)

    Following a single oral dose of CT-044 following administration with and without food

    Measured: 7 days

  3. Comparison of the Area under the drug concentration Time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-∞)

    Following a single oral dose of CT-044 following administration with and without food

    Measured: 7 days

  4. Comparison of the Area under the drug concentration Time curve from time 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC0-last)

    Following a single oral dose of CT-044 following administration with and without food

    Measured: 7 days

  5. Comparison of the Apparent oral clearance (CL/F)

    Following a single oral dose of CT-044 following administration with and without food

    Measured: 7 days

  6. Comparison of the Apparent volume distribution (Vz/F)

    Following a single oral dose of CT-044 following administration with and without food

    Measured: 7 days

  7. Comparison of the Terminal half-life (t1/2)

    Following a single oral dose of CT-044 following administration with and without food

    Measured: 7 days

  8. Comparison of the Terminal rate constant (λz)

    Following a single oral dose of CT-044 following administration with and without food

    Measured: 7 days

  9. Comparison of the Relative bioavailability

    Following a single oral dose of CT-044 after administration of a high-fat meal (F)

    Measured: 7 days

  10. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Linear mixed model appropriate for a 2-period cross-over design with fixed terms for sequence, period and food condition will be used to investigate the food interaction on the Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: 7 days

  11. Plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)

    Linear mixed model appropriate for a 2-period cross-over design with fixed terms for sequence, period and food condition will be used to investigate the food interaction Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CT-044 in people with Pain, Acute and Acute Pain, run by Lotus Clinical Research, LLC at 1 site 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 13 inclusion and 10 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 12 Jun 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 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 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?

Comparison of the maximum drug concentration (time frame: 7 days). The study lists 11 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04252833, 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 12 Jun 2020.
