  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subject must be a male or non-pregnant, non-breastfeeding female.

  • Subject who had a severe course of SARS-CoV-2 (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, mechanically ventilated).
  • Subject who has recent (within 14 days prior to the Screening Visit or between the Screening Visit and the Admission) exposure to someone who has SARS-CoV-2 symptoms or positive test result.
  • Hypersensitivity to anesthetic or derivatives used during CSF collection or any medication used to prepare the area of the lumbar puncture (LP).
  • Previous CSF collection within 30 days prior to admission (Day -1) to the clinic research unit.
  • History of vertebral deformities, major lumbar back surgery, clinically significant back pain, clinically significant abnormal X-ray, and/or injury, in the opinion of the Investigator that would preclude the subject participation or CSF collection during study not possible.
  • An ongoing skin infection at the LP site.
  • Clinically significant coagulation tests values outside the normal reference range (prothrombin time/international normalized ratio, partial thromboplastin time) at screening per Principal Investigator discretion.
  • Evidence of disease within 4 weeks before dosing related to chronic headache, migraines, joint pain or other disorders or disease resulting in chronic or intermittent pain.
  • Any personal or family history of seizure (including febrile seizures) or diagnosis of epilepsy or episode of unexplained loss of consciousness.

About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Drug Interaction Study to Evaluate Safety, Pharmacokinetic, and Pharmacodynamic Effect of Oral Administration of AV-101 Alone and in Combination With Probenecid in Healthy Subjects

This is an open-label, two period, fixed-sequence, drug-drug interaction study to compare the PK and PD of orally administered AV-101 alone and in combination with probenecid in healthy subjects. In Treatment Period 1, subjects will receive AV-101 following an overnight fast of at least 8 hours. In Treatment Period 2, subjects will fast overnight for at least 8 hours, and then receive AV-101 2 hours after receiving 1,000 mg probenecid. Each Treatment Period will be separated by a washout period. The doses of AV-101 in Cohort 1 and a possible Cohort 2 will be 360 mg and 720 mg, respectively. Optional Cohorts 3 and 4 may be enrolled depending on results from Cohorts 1 and 2. CSF will be collected via indwelling catheter to determine the PK of AV-101 and its active metabolite 7-Cl-KYNA.

Being tested
AV-101, Probenecid

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AV-101 and Probenecid in people with Drug Drug Interaction, run by VistaGen Therapeutics, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 20 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 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 United States. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Parexel Phase 1 Unit (888-228-7495, study.losangeles@parexel.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Plasma and CSF concentrations of 7-chloro-kynurenic acid (7-Cl-KYNA) in ng/ml (time frame: 24 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 15 Mar 2022.
