About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-label, Single-Arm, Multiple-Dose Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of Anifrolumab in Chinese Participants With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to maximum observed plasma concentration (Tmax) of anifrolumab.

    To characterise the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of anifrolumab via intravenous (IV) infusion.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 141

  2. Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of anifrolumab.

    To characterise the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of anifrolumab via intravenous (IV) infusion.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 141

  3. Area under plasma concentration-time curve over dosing interval (AUC[tau]) of anifrolumab.

    To characterise the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of anifrolumab via intravenous (IV) infusion.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 141

  4. Pre-dose trough concentration (Ctrough) of anifrolumab.

    To characterise the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of anifrolumab via intravenous (IV) infusion.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 141

  5. The volume of plasma cleared of drug per unit time (CL) of anifrolumab.

    To characterise the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of anifrolumab via intravenous (IV) infusion.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 141

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Incidence of adverse events

    To characterise the safety and tolerability of anifrolumab via IV infusion.

    Measured: From Screening, Day 1 to Day 141

  2. Incidence of abnormal vital signs

    To characterise the safety and tolerability of anifrolumab via IV infusion.

    Measured: From Screening, Day 1 to Day 141

  3. Incidence of abnormal laboratory parameters

    To characterise the safety and tolerability of anifrolumab via IV infusion.

    Measured: Day 29, 57, 85, 113, 141

  4. Anti-drug antibodies (ADA)

    To characterise the immunogenicity of anifrolumab via IV infusion.

    Measured: Day 1, 85, 113, 141

  5. 21-gene Type I interferon PD signature

    To evaluate the IFN level change from baseline after administration of anifrolumab.

    Measured: Screening, Day 29, 85, 113, 141

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Anifrolumab in people with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, run by AstraZeneca at 3 sites in China.

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 12 inclusion and 23 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 18 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in China. 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?

Time to maximum observed plasma concentration (Tmax) of anifrolumab. (time frame: Day 1 to Day 141). The study lists 5 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 18 Aug 2022.
