About this study
Official title: A Phase I, Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single Ascending Dose Study of Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics of Subcutaneous AZD6912 in Healthy Participants
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single ascending doses of AZD6912 administered subcutaneously (SC) in healthy participants.
Read the detailed description
In this First-In-Human (FiH) study, eligible participants will be randomly assigned to 6 cohorts in a 3:1 ratio to receive either a single dose of AZD6912 SC or placebo. The first 2 participants in each cohort will be dosed as a sentinel pair, with one receiving AZD6912 SC and the other receiving placebo.
The study will comprise of, a screening period of 70 days, a treatment period where participants will stay at the Clinical Unit from the day before study intervention administration until at least 240 hours and will be discharged on Day 11. Outpatient visits would start weekly from Day 15, then bi-weekly from Day 43, 4-weekly from Day 99, and 6-weekly from Day 155, with additional follow-up visits approximately every 4 weeks as needed until complement activity returns to the normal range.
The study will last approximately 25 months, including the optional Japanese cohorts, with each participant participating for about 38 weeks or longer until complement activity returns to normal range (per local laboratory).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing AZD6912 in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by AstraZeneca at 2 sites in 2 countries.
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 7 inclusion and 10 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 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 sites in Canada, United Kingdom. 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 adverse events (AEs) (time frame: From screening (Day -70) to last follow up visit (Day 197- approximately 38 weeks)). 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 Dec 2025.
