About this study

Official title: Phase 1, Open-Label, Single-Ascending Dose, Parallel Group Study to Determine the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Tolerability of ATRS-2002 Administered Subcutaneously in Healthy Adult Males

To access the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of subcutaneously administered ATRA-2002 against commercially available oral formulation of abiraterone acetate in healthy male adults

Read the detailed description

The study will be conducted in 4 dosing groups of 8 subjects each.

Thirty-two healthy adult men will be randomly assigned to a treatment cohort and will receive either a single Subcutaneous (SC) dose of ATRS-2002 (abiraterone acetate), or a single oral dose of the commercially available formulation of abiraterone acetate (Zytiga®). Additionally, for Cohorts 1 through 3, a single subject will be randomized as a sentinel subject to be dosed at least 24 hours prior to the rest of cohort (ROC).

Dosing in the abiraterone acetate SC cohorts will be sequential and will start with subjects in the lowest SC dosing cohort (i.e., 25 mg). Dosing will not begin in the next highest SC dose cohort until all safety data, as well as available PK (Pharmacokinetic) data and TT levels, from the previous cohort(s) have been reviewed by the safety review committee (SRC e.g., Sponsor and Investigator) and it has been deemed safe to proceed to the next highest dose.

Dosing in the oral abiraterone acetate cohort (Cohort 4) may begin at any time during the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Abiraterone Acetate in people with Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer, run by Syneos Health.

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 14 inclusion and 21 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2023. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Pharmacokinetic assessment (time frame: Pre-dose (within 30 minutes), Post dose - 4hours, 8hours, 12hours on day 1 and then 24hours, 36hours, 48hours, 60hours, 72hours, 84hours, 96hours, 168hours, 240hours, 336hours, 504hours, 672hours). The study lists 2 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 28 Apr 2023.
