Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 55 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • healthy on the basis of physical examination, medical history, and vital signs, and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed at screening. Any abnormalities, must be consistent with the underlying illness in the study population and this determination must be recorded in the participant's source documents and initialed by the investigator
  • healthy on the basis of clinical laboratory tests performed at screening. If the results of the serum chemistry panel, hematology, or urinalysis are outside the normal reference ranges, the participant may be included only if the investigator judges the abnormalities or deviations from normal to be not clinically significant or to be appropriate and reasonable for the population under study. This determination must be recorded in the participant's source documents and initialed by the investigator
  • must be a non-smoker (not smoked for at least 6 months prior to screening) and has not used nicotine-containing products (example, nicotine patch) for 3 months prior to screening
  • A woman must be: a) not of childbearing potential; b) Of childbearing potential and practicing a highly effective method of contraception (failure rate of less than (<1) percent (%) per year when used consistently and correctly) and agrees to remain on a highly effective method while receiving study intervention and until the end of the intervention cohort. The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (example, noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of study intervention
  • A woman of childbearing potential must have a negative highly sensitive serum (beta-human chorionic gonadotropin [beta-hCG]) at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test prior to study intervention administration on Day -4

Who cannot join

  • history of liver or renal insufficiency; significant cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic, rheumatologic, psychiatric, or metabolic disturbances
  • history of any type of immunodeficiency or autoimmune disease or disease treatment associated with immune suppression or lymphopenia. These include but are not limited to bone marrow or organ transplantation, lymphoproliferative disorders, T- or B-cell deficiency syndromes, splenectomy, functional asplenia and chronic granulomatous disease
  • has an active, acute or chronic infection
  • has a history of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), celiac disease, or gastrointestinal diseases (GI) surgery, excluding appendectomy and cholecystectomy
  • has known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)

About this study

Official title: A Phase 0 Platform Study Exploring the Use of Challenge Agents in Healthy Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to characterize the disruption of intestinal barrier as a result of indomethacin challenge in healthy volunteers using an orally administered lactulose-mannitol test.

Conditions
Healthy
Being tested
Indomethacin, Lactulose-mannitol

What participants receive

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

  • IndomethacinDrug

    Indomethacin capsules will be administered orally.

  • Lactulose-mannitolDiagnostic test

    Lactulose-mannitol solution will be administered orally.

Study groups in NCT04821323
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Indomethacin ChallengeExperimentalParticipants will receive challenge agent as two single oral doses of Indomethacin, one on Day -1 and one on Day 1. In addition, participants will receive lactulose-mannitol solution on Day -4 (baseline) and on Day 1 (post Indomethacin challenge).
Receives: Drug: Indomethacin; Diagnostic Test: Lactulose-mannitol

What is being measured

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

  1. Longitudinal Change From Baseline in Lactulose/Mannitol Ratio in the Urine Following Indomethacin Challenge

    Longitudinal change from baseline in L/M ratio in the urine following indomethacin challenge will be assessed. L/M ratio in urine is a useful and noninvasive marker for the evaluation of intestinal permeability in the urinary excretion of these nonmetabolized sugars.

    Measured: Baseline, Up to 14 days

  2. Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    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 6 weeks

  3. Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Serious Adverse Events (TE-SAEs)

    TE-SAEs is defined as any untoward medical occurrence with a reasonable possibility that it is caused by the study intervention that: Is life-threatening (example; leads to stroke or non-fatal pulmonary embolism); Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; Results in other clinically significant sign(s) or symptom(s), (example; clinically asymptomatic brain microhemorrhages); or Results in death.

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Longitudinal Change From Baseline in Selected Biomarkers Following Indomethacin Challenge

    Change from baseline in selected biomarkers levels (example: Lactulose-mannitol, C-reactive protein [CRP], calprotectin, Et cetera [etc.]) using analysis methods such as liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry, immunoturbidimetry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), etc., as a result of the indomethacin challenge.

    Measured: Baseline, Up to 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Indomethacin and Lactulose-mannitol 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 25 Jun 2021. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

Longitudinal Change From Baseline in Lactulose/Mannitol Ratio in the Urine Following Indomethacin Challenge (time frame: Baseline, Up to 14 days). The study lists 3 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 25 Jun 2021.
