  • Ages 18 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Participant must be of first to third generation Japanese descent
  • Participant must be otherwise healthy on the basis of physical examination, medical history, vital signs, and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed at screening and Day-1. Any abnormalities, must be considered not clinically significant and this determination must be recorded in the participant's source documents and initialed by the investigator
  • Participant must be otherwise healthy on the basis of clinical laboratory tests performed at screening and Day-1. If the results of the serum chemistry panel including hematology, or urinalysis are outside the normal reference ranges, the participant may be included only if the investigator judges the abnormalities or deviations from normal to be not clinically significant or to be appropriate and reasonable for the population under study. This determination must be recorded in the participant's source documents and initialed by the investigator
  • Participant must have a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 30 kilogram per meter square (kg/m^2) (BMI = weight/height^2) and a body weight of between 50 to 90 kg inclusive
  • A female participant must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and on Day -1

  • Concomitant or Previous Medical Therapies Received: Has received over the counter medications (including vitamins/multivitamins supplements, corticosteroids, acetaminophen/paracetamol, aspirin, decongestants, antihistamines and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), and herbal medication (including, but not limited to, herbal tea, St. John's Wort, and cannabidol) within 2 weeks prior to first study intervention administration unless approved by the investigator and sponsor medical monitor

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study. TEAEs are defined as AEs with onset or worsening on or after date of first dose of study treatment.

    A SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.

    Measured: Up to Week 16

  3. Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) by System Organ Class (SOC) Reported in two or More Participants

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.

Secondary outcomes (8)

    Cmax is the maximum observed concentration.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  2. Area Under the Plasma/Serum Concentration-time Curve from Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC[0-infinity])

    AUC(0-infinity) is defined area under the plasma/serum concentration versus time curve from time zero to infinity with extrapolation of the terminal phase.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  3. Area Under the Plasma/Serum Concentration-time Curve from Time Zero To Time Of the Last Quantifiable Concentrations (AUC[0-last])

    AUC(0-last) is defined as area under the plasma/serum concentration versus time curve from time zero to the time corresponding to the last quantifiable concentration.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  4. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax)

    Tmax is the time to reach maximum observed concentration.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

    T1/2 is the terminal half-life.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

    CL/F is the apparent total systemic clearance after extravascular administration.

    Measured: Up to Week 12

  7. Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vz/F)

    Vz/F is the apparent volume of distribution based on terminal phase after extravascular administration.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JNJ-77474462 in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 1 site in Australia.

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 6 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 29 Sep 2021. 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 Australia. 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?

Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: Up to Week 16). The study lists 8 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 29 Sep 2021.
