About this study

Official title: (Part A) A Non-randomized, Open, Single-dose Escalation to Evaluate Tolerability and Safety of Single Oral Dose of HY209; (Part B) A Block-randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled, Multiple-dose Escalation to Evaluate Tolerability and Safety of Multiple Oral Doses of HY209 Phase 1 Clinical Trial in Healthy Volunteers

  • Primary study objectives in Parts A and B To determine the Maximum Tolerable Dose(MTD) of the study drug (repeated or single dose).
  • Endpoint: • Adverse event(AEs), including objective and subjective symptoms, after the IP dosing as well as physical examinations, vital signs, ECGs, and laboratory tests findings related to the IP dosing
  • Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)
  • Justification for endpoints: The safety will be assessed comprehensively by performing safety assessment and evaluating relevant variables by dose group.

The tolerability will be assessed in DLT analysis set. In a first-in-human clinical trial, tolerability of the drug administered is usually assessed through determination of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). An accurate dose proportionality of toxicity was not observed, but toxicity was found at high doses, not at low doses following IV and oral administrations, except transdermal treatment. Thus, a relationship between toxicity and doses was confirmed.

In addition, HY209 showed a dose dependence in some efficacy endpoints, including dose-dependent inhibition of release of Tumor Necrosis Factor(TNF)-α and Il-1β, key inflammation factors related to inflammatory bowel disease. Thus, evaluating the occurrence of DLTs through sequential dose escalation is determined appropriate to assess the tolerability and safety of HY209.

  • Primary study objectives in Part A (Dose levels 4-6): To evaluate the effects of food on HY209 bioavailability (absorption rate and volume) following a single oral dose in healthy volunteers.
  • Endpoint: PK of HY209 at a fasting condition and after a high-fat meal Point estimates for the geometric mean ratio of variables (Area under concentration-time curve;AUC₀-₆, AUCₗₐₛₜ, AUC₀-∞, and Cmax) and the 90% confidence interval(CI) and Tmax .
  • Justification for endpoints: For oral drugs, effects of food on bioavailability of the drugs are usually evaluated. Especially, a systemic exposure to bile acid drugs of enterohepatic circulation can be explained with a spillover from the liver to systemic circulatory system. Thus, a systemic exposure is thought to be affected by food, but the actual effects of food are triggered by combination of factors that affect in vivo elution of a drug and absorption of the active pharmaceutical ingredient(API) of the drug. As estimating the extent of effects on bioavailability is difficult without conducting an actual food effect study, there is a need for clinical evaluation.

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 5 inclusion and 40 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Aug 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 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, ECGs, laboratory tests findings related to the IP dosing, Does limiting toxicity, PK assessment endpoints (time frame: Test of DLTs observed until 7 days after the last does of HY209 for each dose and dosage cohort.). 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 15 Aug 2024.
