  • The subject must have had both biological parents and four biological grandparents of non-Asian descent.
  • The subject must have been matched individually (on a 1:1 basis) with respect to sex, age (within 5 years), and weight (within 10%) to a Japanese subject.

  • The subject must have been born in Japan and have both biological parents and four biological grandparents of Japanese descent.
  • The subject had a valid Japanese passport.
  • The subject must have lived outside of Japan for no more than 5 years.

  • The subject was pregnant, nursing, or planned to become pregnant or donate gametes (ova or sperm) for in vitro fertilization during the study period or for 30 days following the subject's last study-related visit (for eligible subjects only, if applicable).
  • The subject had a medical condition that may have potentially been aggravated by a systemic retinoid such as isotretinoin or etretinate.
  • The subject had been exposed to synthetic oral retinoids in the past 30 days prior to the screening visit (signature of the informed consent).
  • The subject was currently using vitamin A or beta carotene, multivitamins containing vitamin A or beta carotene, or herbal preparations, fish oil, and was unable or unwilling to discontinue use of these products for the duration of the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum (peak) plasma drug concentration

    Measured: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.

  2. Time to reach maximum (peak) plasma concentration following drug administration

    Measured: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.

  3. Area under the plasma concentration time curve from time zero to the last quantifiable time point, calculated by linear-log trapezoidal summation

    Measured: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.

  4. Area under the plasma concentration time curve from time zero to infinity, calculated by linear-log trapezoidal summation and extrapolated to infinity by addition of the last quantifiable plasma concentration divided by the elimination rate constant

    Measured: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.

  5. Terminal disposition rate constant/terminal rate constant, determined by linear regression of the terminal points of the log-linear plasma concentration-time curve

    Measured: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.

  6. Elimination half-life

    Measured: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.

  7. Apparent volume of distribution after non-intravenous (oral) administration

    Measured: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.

  8. Apparent total clearance of the drug from plasma after oral administration calculated by dose/ AUC(0-∞)

    Measured: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing palovarotene low-dose and palovarotene high-dose in people with FOP, run by Clementia Pharmaceuticals Inc..

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 13 inclusion and 14 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 2 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Maximum (peak) plasma drug concentration (time frame: pre-dose (0 hour), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-drug administration.). The study lists 8 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 2 Apr 2021.
