About this study

Official title: An Adaptive, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled Three Part Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of MRX-8 Administered Intravenously to Healthy Volunteers in Single Ascending and Multiple Ascending Dose Cohorts

This Phase 1 study is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of single and multiple intravenous (IV) doses of MRX-8, to assess the pharmacokinetics of MRX-8 and its primary metabolite following single and multiple IV doses, and to measure the elimination of MRX-8 and its metabolite in urine.

Read the detailed description

This is a first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study consisting of 3 parts. Part 1 will evaluate single ascending doses (SAD) of study drug. Part 2 will evaluate multiple ascending doses (MAD) of study drug administered for 7 days. Part 3 will evaluate MAD of study drug administered for 14 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse events

    Symptoms reported by subjects.

    Measured: Pre-dose through 48 hours after the end of infusion on the final infusion of study drug

  2. Clinical laboratory assessment

    Complete blood count

    Measured: Pre-dose through 48 hours after the end of infusion on the final infusion of study drug

  3. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax of MRX-8 and its primary metabolite following single and multiple intravenous doses

    Measured: Pre-dose through 48 hours after the end of infusion on the final infusion of study drug

  4. Time to Peak Plasma Concentration (Tmax)

    Tmax of MRX-8 and its primary metabolite following single and multiple intravenous doses

    Measured: Pre-dose through 48 hours after the end of infusion on the final infusion of study drug

  5. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)

    AUC of MRX-8 and its primary metabolite following single and multiple intravenous doses

    Measured: Pre-dose through 48 hours after the end of infusion on the final infusion of study drug

  6. Vital signs

    Heart rate

    Measured: Pre-dose through 48 hours after the end of infusion on the final infusion of study drug

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Elimination of MRX-8 and its primary metabolite in urine

    Quantity of measurable MRX-8 and its primary metabolite excreted in urine

    Measured: At the end of infusion through 24 hours after the end of infusion on the final infusion of study drug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MRX-8 in people with Safety, run by MicuRx 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 24 Aug 2023. 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. 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?

Adverse events (time frame: Pre-dose through 48 hours after the end of infusion on the final infusion of study drug). The study lists 6 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 24 Aug 2023.
