About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Randomized, Crossover Study to Evaluate the Effect of Food on Maribavir (TAK-620) Pharmacokinetics in Healthy Adult Participants

The main goals of this study are: 1) To assess the relative bioavailability of a single oral dose of 400 mg maribavir commercial (marketed) tablet formulation administered with a low-fat/low-calorie meal relative to administration under fasting conditions. 2) To assess the relative bioavailability of a single oral dose of 400 mg maribavir commercial (marketed) tablet formulation administered with a high-fat/high calorie meal relative to administration under fasting conditions.

A single dose of 400 mg maribavir (commercial [marketed] tablet formulation) will be administered orally under 3 different feeding conditions:

Read more
  1. Fasting (Treatment A),
  2. Fed following a low-fat/low-calorie meal (Treatment B), and
  3. Fed following a high fat/high-calorie meal (Treatment C).

There will be a washout period of a minimum of 72 hours between each single dose of investigational drug (ID) administration on Day 1 in each treatment cycle of 3 days.

Pharmacokinetic samples will be collected at pre-dose and up to 36 hours post-dose in each treatment period.

Safety and tolerability will be assessed throughout the study by Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and clinical laboratory evaluations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Maribavir

    Cmax of maribavir in plasma was reported using the non-compartmental analysis.

    Measured: Day 1: Pre dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 36-hours post-dose

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve From the Time of Dosing to the Last Measurable Concentration (AUClast) of Maribavir

    AUClast of maribavir in plasma was reported using the non-compartmental analysis.

    Measured: Day 1: Pre dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 36-hours post-dose

  3. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity (AUC0-infinity) of Maribavir

    AUC0-infinity of maribavir in plasma was reported using the non-compartmental analysis.

    Measured: Day 1: Pre dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 36-hours post-dose

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs

    TEAEs were defined as adverse events (AEs) with a start date on or after the first dose of the ID, or with a start date before the date of first dose of the ID but increasing in severity after the first dose of the ID. An SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital abnormality or birth defect, an important medical event. Any clinically significant changes from baseline in vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and clinical laboratory results were reported as TEAEs. Number of participants who experienced at least one TEAEs and serious TEAE were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration to follow-up (up to Day 18)

  2. Number of Participants Based on Severity of TEAEs

    Severity of TEAEs were determined by following criteria: Mild: An AE that was usually transient and might require only minimal treatment or therapeutic intervention. The event did not generally interfere with usual activities of daily living; Moderate: An AE that was usually alleviated with additional specific therapeutic intervention. The event interfered with usual activities of daily living, causing discomfort but possessed no significant or permanent risk of harm to the research participant; Severe: An AE that interrupted usual activities of daily living, or significantly affects clinical status, or might require intensive therapeutic intervention. Number of participants based on severity of TEAEs as assessed by the Investigator were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration to follow-up (up to Day 18)

  3. Number of Participants Based on Causality of TEAEs

    The causality relationship of each AE to the ID was assessed using the following categories: Related: An AE that followed a reasonable temporal sequence from administration of a drug (including the course after withdrawal of the drug), or for which a causal relationship was at least a reasonable possibility, that was, the relationship could not be ruled out, although factors other than the drug, such as underlying diseases, complications, concomitant drugs and concurrent treatments, might also be responsible; Not Related: An AE that did not follow a reasonable temporal sequence from administration of a drug and/or that could reasonably be explained by other factors, such as underlying diseases, complications, concomitant medications and concurrent treatments. Number of participants based on causality of TEAEs as assessed by the Investigator were reported.

    Measured: From start of study drug administration to follow-up (up to Day 18)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Maribavir in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Takeda 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 8 inclusion and 24 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 16 Feb 2024. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Feb 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Maribavir (time frame: Day 1: Pre dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 36-hours post-dose). The study lists 3 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 NCT05382104, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 Feb 2024.
