About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Assess the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Niclosamide in Healthy Adults

A single and multiple ascending dose study of ANA001 in healthy adults to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, single center, randomized, double blind, single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) study to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of ANA001 in healthy adult subjects. In the single ascending dose portion of the study, subjects in 3 cohorts of 10 subjects each will be randomized to receive a single daily oral dose of ANA001 or matching placebo. In the multiple ascending dose portion of the study, subjects in 3 cohorts of 12 subjects each will be randomized to receive twice or thrice daily oral dose of ANA001 or matching placebo.

Conditions
Healthy
Being tested
Niclosamide, Placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Niclosamide in people with Healthy, run by NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals Inc. 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 18 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 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Feb 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

SAD: Number of Subjects Reporting TEAEs and STEAEs (time frame: Baseline to Day 7.). The study lists 12 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 3 Feb 2025.
