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
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Have a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 30 kilograms per meter square (kg/m^2) (BMI = weight/height^2), inclusive, and a body weight of no less than 50 kilograms (kg)
  • Healthy on the basis of physical examination, medical history, and vital signs performed at screening. Any abnormalities, must be considered not clinically significant 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 sign an informed consent forms (ICFs) indicating that he or she understands the purpose of, and procedures required for, the study and is willing to participate in the study
  • A woman must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) or freeze for future use for the purposes of assisted reproduction during the study and for a period of 30 days after the last dose of study intervention

Who cannot join

  • History of liver or renal insufficiency, significant cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic, rheumatologic, psychiatric, or metabolic, or mucocutaneous 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
  • Any condition for which, in the opinion of the investigator, participation would not be in the best interest of the participant (for example, compromise the well-being) or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol-specified assessments
  • Has experienced a recent single dermatomal herpes zoster eruption within the past 6 months or has had multi-dermatomal herpes zoster or central nervous system zoster within the past 5 years
  • Has surgery planned within 30 days after study intervention administration

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Single Center, Randomized, Controlled Platform Study Validating the Use of Candin as a Challenge Agent in Healthy Volunteers or Patients Given Concomitant Approved Interventions

The purpose of this study is to characterize the delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response at the site of Candin intradermal injection in the presence of a targeted immune pathway inhibitor.

Conditions
Healthy
Being tested
Tofacitinib

What participants receive

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

  • TofacitinibDrug

    Also called Xeljanz

    Tofacitinib tablet will be administered orally.

Study groups in NCT04985955
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Candin + TofacitinibExperimentalParticipants will receive a single dose of Candin injection on forearm of 1 arm along with a saline solution injection of 0.9 percent (%) sodium chloride (NaCl) on the opposite forearm on Day 3 and oral dose of tofacitinib for 5 days.
Receives: Drug: Tofacitinib
Candin ChallengeNo interventionAll participants will receive a single dose of Candin injection on forearm of 1 arm along with a saline solution injection of 0.9% NaCl on the opposite forearm on Day 3.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Presence and Size of Induration in Active Versus Control at the Candin Injection Site Compared to the Intra-individual Saline Control Injection Site Approximately 48 Hours After Candin Challenge

    Number of participants with presence and size of induration in active versus control at the Candin injection site compared to the intra-individual saline control injection site approximately 48 hours after Candin challenge will be reported.

    Measured: Day 5

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants with Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) in the Active Arm Versus the Control Arm

    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

  2. Number of Participants with Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in the Active Arm Versus the Control Arm

    A SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent SAEs are defined as serious events between administration of study drug and after the last dose that were absent before treatment or that worsen relative to pretreatment state.

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

  3. Number of Participants with TEAEs by Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) System Organ Class (SOC) with a Frequency Threshold of 5 Percent (%) or More in the Active Arm Versus the Control Arm

    Number of participants with TEAEs by MedDRA SOC with a frequency threshold of 5% or more in the active arm versus the control arm will be reported. TEAEs are defined as AEs with onset or worsening on or after date of first dose of study treatment.

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tofacitinib 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 3 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 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?

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?

Number of Participants with Presence and Size of Induration in Active Versus Control at the Candin Injection Site Compared to the Intra-individual Saline Control Injection Site Approximately 48 Hours After Candin Challenge (time frame: Day 5). 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 3 Feb 2025.
