About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Single Center, Randomized, Controlled Platform Study Validating the Use of Candin As a Challenge Agent in Healthy Volunteers or Patients Given Concomitant Approved Interventions

The purpose of this study is to characterize the delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response at the site of Candin intradermal injection in the presence of a targeted immune pathway inhibitor.

Conditions
Healthy
Being tested
Cosentyx, Candin

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CosentyxDrug

    Also called Secukinumab

    Cosentyx injection will be administered subcutaneously.

  • CandinDrug

    Candin will be administered interadermally along with NaCl solution.

Study groups in NCT04589026
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Active Arm: Candin + ConsentyxActive comparatorParticipants will receive a single dose of Candin injection intradermally along with a saline solution of 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl), and a single dose of Cosentyx injection subcutaneously.
Receives: Drug: Cosentyx; Drug: Candin
Control Arm: CandinNo interventionAll participants will receive a single dose of Candin injection intradermally along with a saline solution of 0.9% NaCl, and no Cosentyx.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Presence and Size of Induration in Active Versus Control at the Candin Injection Site Compared to the Intra-individual Saline Control Injection Site Approximately 48 Hours After Candin Challenge

    Number of participants with presence and size of induration in active versus control at the Candin injection site compared to the intra-individual saline control injection site approximately 48 hours after Candin challenge will be reported.

    Measured: Day 8

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) in the Active Arm Versus the Control Arm

    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.

    Measured: Up to 2 months

  2. Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in the Active Arm Versus the Control Arm

    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 2 months

  3. Number of Participants with TEAEs by Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) System Organ Class (SOC) with a Frequency Threshold of 5% or More in the Active Arm Versus the Control Arm

    Number of participants with TEAEs by MedDRA SOC with a frequency threshold of 5% or more in the active arm versus the control arm will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Cosentyx and Candin in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 1 site in Belgium.

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 5 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 3 Feb 2025. 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 Belgium. 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 Presence and Size of Induration in Active Versus Control at the Candin Injection Site Compared to the Intra-individual Saline Control Injection Site Approximately 48 Hours After Candin Challenge (time frame: Day 8). 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 3 Feb 2025.
