About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single Ascending, Dose-Escalation, Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of ION904 Administered Subcutaneously to Healthy Participants

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ION904.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-ascending dose escalation study of ION904 in up to 72 participants. Following a Screening Period of up to 28 days, eligible healthy participants will be randomized to treatment and receive a single, subcutaneous (SC) dose of the assigned study drug. Participants will be followed for up to 13 weeks after dosing.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ION904 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 1 site in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 13 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 9 Aug 2022. 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 Canada. 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?

Number of Participants With at Least One Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) (time frame: Up to Day 85). The study lists 4 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 9 Aug 2022.
