About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single-Center Phase I Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of a Single Dose of HST101 in Healthy Chinese Study Participants With Elevated LDL-C Levels

This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single HST101 SC dose cohort study to evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics in Healthy Chinese Participants with Elevated LDL-C Levels.

Read the detailed description

The planned 30 study participants will be assigned to low- or high-dose 2 cohorts and 15 participants in each cohort will be randomized to either the HST101 group or the matching dose placebo group and will be administered in subsequent or in-parallel manner. Cohort 1: 15 study participants will receive the low dose of HST101 or placebo at a corresponding dose. Cohort 2: additional 15 study participants will receive the high dose of HST101 or placebo at a corresponding dose.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of a single SC dose of HST101 in Chinese healthy adult study participants with elevated LDL-C level(International Standard Unit: mmol/L)

    Safety and tolerability will be assessed by the incidence and severity of treatment emergent adverse events

    Measured: 57 days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. To assess the pharmacokinetic characteristics and dose proportionality relathionship of HST101 following a single SC dose

    The PK parameters include Cmax, Tmax, T1/2, AUC0-t, AUCinf and others if necessary

    Measured: 57 days

  2. To assess the PD effect of a single SC dose of HST101 on serum unbound (free) PCSK9 concentrations and serum LDL-C concentrations

    Serum free PCSK9 and LDL-C will be measured at baseline and various time points over 57 days

    Measured: 57 days

  3. To assess the effect of a single SC dose of HST101 on blood lipids including TC, HDL-C, VLDL-C, and TG

    Serum TC,HDL-C,VLDL-C and TG(ISU:mmol/L)will be measured at baseline and various time points over 57 days to assess percent change from baseline over time

    Measured: 57 days

  4. To assess the effect of a single SC dose of HST101 on serum ApoB, Apo A1 concentrations

    Serum Apo B(ISU:mg/dL) , Apo A1(ISU:mg/dL) concentrations will be measured at baseline and various time points over 57 days to assess percent change from baseline over time

    Measured: 57 days

  5. To assess the effect of a single SC dose of HST101 on serum Lp(a) concentrations

    Serum Lp (a)(ISU: nmol/L) concentrations will be measured at baseline and various time points over 57 days to assess percent change from baseline over time

    Measured: 57 days

  6. To assess the PK-PD relationship following a single SC dose of HST101

    The PK-PD relationship will be measured over 57 days

    Measured: 57 days

  7. To assess immunogenicity (incidence, titer, and duration of ADAs/NAbs) following a single SC dose of HST101

    Measurement of ADAs/NAbs will be done at baseline and various intervals after HST101 administration

    Measured: 57 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing HST101 in people with Hypercholesterolemia and Healthy Volunteers, run by Hasten Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 3 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Mar 2025. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of a single SC dose of HST101 in Chinese healthy adult study participants with elevated LDL-C level(International Standard Unit: mmol/L) (time frame: 57 days). 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 14 Mar 2025.
