About this study

Official title: A Phase I Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of AZD7442 in Healthy Japanese Participants

AZD7442 mAbs are being evaluated for administration to prevent or treat COVID-19. This Phase I study will gather important information on the safety and tolerability of AZD7442.

Read the detailed description

Severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 is a novel coronavirus that appears to have first emerged in China in November 2019 causing cases of atypical pneumonia. Since then, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused major disruption to healthcare systems with significant socioeconomic impacts. As of 22 December 2020, the virus had spread to all corners of the globe, involving 218 countries/regions with over 78.00 million confirmed cases reported and more than 1.71 million associated deaths. As a response to the ongoing pandemic, AstraZeneca is developing mAbs to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein contains the virus's receptor binding domain, which enables the virus to bind to receptors on human cells. By targeting this region of the virus's spike protein, antibodies can block the virus's attachment to human cells, and, therefore, are expected to block infection. AZD7442, a combination of 2 of these mAbs (AZD8895 and AZD1061), is being evaluated for administration to treat or prevent COVID-19. There are currently one ongoing Phase I study and two ongoing Phase III studies with AZD7442, in addition to this treatment study.

Randomization of approximately 40 Japanese participants is planned.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD7442 300 mg IM(male), AZD7442 600 mg IM (male) and AZD7442 300 mg IV (male and female) in people with COVID-19, run by AstraZeneca at 1 site in Japan.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 27 Jun 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 Japan. 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?

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?

Adverse event and serious adverse event (time frame: Up to Day361). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04896541, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 27 Jun 2022.
