About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Single Center, Multiple-Dose, Parallel Trial Evaluating the Impact of Apraglutide on Gastric Emptying of Liquids in Healthy Subjects

The primary objective is to assess the effect of apraglutide on gastric emptying of liquids in healthy subjects, as measured by the PK of acetaminophen mixed with a liquid meal.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, double-blind, randomized, multiple-dose, parallel trial with a total duration of up to 50 days. The trial population will consist of healthy volunteers. Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive either subcutaneous (SC) apraglutide or matching placebo. The effect of apraglutide on gastric emptying of liquids will be assessed by the measure of PK of acetaminophen mixed with a liquid meal.

There will be two treatment periods, occurring according to the same sequence. In Period 1 acetaminophen will be given on Day 1, apraglutide/placebo will be injected on Day2. In Period 2 apraglutide/placebo will be injected on Day 9 and acetaminophen will be given on Day 10. This will allow to assess the PK of acetaminophen without the effect of apraglutide in Period 1, and to assess the PK of acetaminophen at the maximum concentration of apraglutide in Period 2.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Apraglutide and Acetaminophen in people with Healthy Subjects, run by VectivBio AG at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 17 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 24 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 Netherlands. 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?

Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of acetaminophen (time frame: 0-300 Minutes). 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 24 Oct 2024.
