Trial summary

Treatments for narcolepsy and hypersomnolence disorders should have good oral bioavailability and brain penetration properties. JZP441 has demonstrated wake-promoting efficacy and anticataplectic activity in nonclinical studies and may represent a novel approach for these patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Ascending Doses of JZP441 in Healthy Adult Participants: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Phase 1 Study

Treatments for narcolepsy and hypersomnolence disorders should have good oral bioavailability and brain penetration properties. JZP441 has demonstrated wake-promoting efficacy and anticataplectic activity in nonclinical studies and may represent a novel approach for these patients.

Read the detailed description

This Phase 1, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group study is designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, and PK of multiple ascending doses of JZP441 for up to 4 weeks in healthy adult participants.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events

    Measured: Day 1 up until 38 days after last dose of study drug, up to approximately 2 months

  2. Pharmacokinetic Parameter Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) Levels of JZP441

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

  3. Pharmacokinetic Parameter Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of JZP441

    Time to maximum plasma concentration (Tmax), time of maximum observed plasma concentration post first dose but before second dose during the 24-hour dosing interval (Tmax1), and time of maximum observed plasma concentration post second dose during the 24-hour dosing interval (Tmax2), and time of last quantifiable concentration (Tlast) will be assessed.

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

  4. Pharmacokinetic Parameter Terminal Elimination Half-life (T1/2) of JZP441

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

  5. Pharmacokinetic Parameter Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) of JZP441

    Area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 to 24 hours (AUC0-24), area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC0-last), and area under the concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity (AUC∞) will be assessed.

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

  6. Pharmacokinetic Parameter Apparent Oral Clearance (CL/F) of JZP441

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

  7. Pharmacokinetic Parameter Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vz/F) of JZP441

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

  8. Pharmacokinetic Parameter Accumulation Ratio of JZP441

    Accumulation ratio (Cmax) and accumulation ratio (AUC) will be assessed.

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

  9. Dose Proportionality of JZP441 for Maximum Concentration (Cmax)

    Dose proportionality of maximum concentration (Cmax), maximum observed plasma concentration post first dose but before second dose during the 24-hour dosing interval (Cmax1), and maximum observed plasma concentration post second dose during the 24-hour dosing interval (Cmax2) will be assessed.

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

  10. Dose Proportionality of JZP441 for Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC)

    Dose proportionality of area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 hours (AUC[0-24]) will be assessed.

    Measured: Pre-dose and multiple post-dose timepoints, up to Day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JZP441 in people with Healthy Participants, run by Jazz Pharmaceuticals 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 2 inclusion and 16 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 1 Oct 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (time frame: Day 1 up until 38 days after last dose of study drug, up to approximately 2 months). The study lists 10 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 1 Oct 2024.
