About this study

Official title: Phase 1, Randomised, Open-label, 3-period Crossover, Single Dose Study in Healthy Subjects, to Assess Relative Bioavailability From an Oral Capsule of HTL0016878 Citrate Salt Versus an Oral Solution of HTL0016878 Hydrochloride Salt

This is a randomised, open-label, 3-period, crossover single dose study to assess the relative bioavailability of two formulations of HTL0016878: an oral solution of HCl salt form (the reference product) and an oral capsule containing citrate salt (the test product); and of the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of the capsule formulation.

Read the detailed description

Fifteen healthy male or female subjects will be enrolled. Each subject will have 3 study sessions and receive a single oral dose of 10 mg HTL0016878 on Day 1 of each study session. Subjects will receive the HTL0016878.HCl oral solution in the fasted state in 1 session, and the HTL0016878.citrate capsule, in the fasted state and after a high-fat meal, respectively, in the other 2 sessions. Each subject will be randomised to 1 of 3 treatment sequences (5 subjects to each sequence). There will be a washout of at least 10 days between doses. Subjects will be screened within 35 days before their first dose of HTL0016878. In each study session, subjects will be resident on the ward from the day before dosing (Day -1) until completion of procedures 72 h after their dose (Day 4). Subjects will return for a follow up visit 10-13 days after their final dose of trial medication.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing HTL0016878.HCl Solution 10 mg and HTL0016878.Citrate Capsule 10 mg in people with Healthy Subjects, run by Nxera Pharma UK Limited at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 8 inclusion and 33 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 19 Feb 2025. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Concentration of HTL0016878 in plasma Cmax (time frame: 0-72 hours). 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 19 Feb 2025.
