About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study and Food Effect Study of Oral RP7214, a DHODH Inhibitor, in Healthy Volunteers

This is a randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK of single and multiple ascending oral doses of RP7214. The relative bioavailability in fed and fasting conditions will also be evaluated for RP7214. The study comprises three parts; Part 1: Single ascending dose, Part 2: Multiple ascending dose and Part 3: Food effect.

Read the detailed description

There are three escalating cohorts in SAD part and two escalating cohorts in MAD part. In each cohort, six eligible healthy volunteers will be randomized to receive either RP7214 or placebo in 2:1 ratio. Within each cohort, two sentinel subjects (RP7214 and Placebo) will be dosed first for assessment of safety and tolerability. The safety data of at least 48 hrs will be reviewed to confirm safety of sentinel subjects after which the remaining four subjects will be dosed. Food effect study is a randomized, 2-treatment, 2-period, 2-sequence, crossover study in 12 HVs.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing RP7214 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Rhizen Pharmaceuticals SA at 2 sites 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 9 inclusion and 9 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 18 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

Assessments of Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: Day1 - day15). 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 NCT04680429, 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 18 Aug 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 5 Nov 2026.
