About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of NCP112

To evaluate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of NCP 112 after single and multiple applications on the skin of healthy male volunteers.

Read the detailed description

Atopic dermatitis is presented as eczematous lesions. Some rashes, discharge, and blisters appear at the acute stage and skin lesions of lichenification appear as the skin becomes thick and leathery at the chronic stage. If not treated properly, a vicious cycle of inflammation of the immune system and further damage to the skin barrier is produced. In particular, enhanced immune reaction to external environmental stimuli plays a major role in inducing pruritis, an essential feature of atopic dermatitis. Pruritis triggers scratching, which in turn leads to an 'itch-scratch-itch' vicious cycle', resulting in secondary skin changes. Therefore, it is important to break the vicious cycle, which worsens the symptoms by means of an optimal treatment.

NCP112 is a first-in-class drug candidate, with a novel target strategy for atopic dermatitis, different from those of the other currently available drugs; The Investigators believe that NCP112 might show a potential as an effective therapy for atopic dermatitis in animal models. Since the efficacy and safety have not been fully elucidated, new adverse reactions, unidentified from the non-clinical data, could appear later. Provided that NCP112 effectively alleviates atopic dermatitis, an intractable chronic disease, it is presumed that the expected benefits would outweigh the foreseeable risks. In the present trial, safety, including occurrences of adverse drug reactions, was thoroughly observed.

This trial was designed as a single-center, block-randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single and multiple dose-ascending trial in which subjects were allocated to either topical application of NCP112 or placebo (vehicle).

The purpose of the present trial was to primarily access the safety of NCP112, the test drug of the trial, in healthy male adults prior to administer the test drug to the real patients with atopic dermatitis, the proposed indication.

What participants receive

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

  • NCP112Drug

    The first two subjects for sentinel dosing are randomly assigned to either the test drug or placebo in a 1:1 ratio. After safety and tolerability were reviewed for sentinel participants up to 24 hours after dosing, the subsequent 7 subjects are randomized to the remaining treatment allocations, with 5 subjects to the test drug and 2 to the placebo.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and Tolerability

    Occurrences of 'dosage limiting' toxicity will evaluate in the subjects included in the Safety Set.

    Measured: Having observe the predefined safety events from Day 1(the first day of dosing) until Day 8(the day following the final dose)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing NCP112 in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by NovaCell Technology Inc. at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 15 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 Dec 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 South Korea. 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?

Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Having observe the predefined safety events from Day 1(the first day of dosing) until Day 8(the day following the final dose)). 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 Dec 2022.
