About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Single-Sequence, 3 Period Crossover, Open-Label Study to Determine the Effect of Rabeprazole or H2 Blocker Famotidine on the Pharmacokinetics of Nirogacestat in Healthy Adult Male Participants

This study will evaluate the effects of the H2 blocker famotidine or the PPI rabeprazole on the PK of nirogacestat in healthy male participants

Read the detailed description

This is a phase 1, single-center, single-sequence crossover study to compare the PK, safety, and tolerability of nirogacestat alone or coadministered with famotidine or rabeprazole. This study will consist of 3 periods: Period 1 Nirogacestat Alone (Reference), Period 2 Nirogacestat and Famotidine (Test), and Period 3 Nirogacestat and Rabeprazole (Test).

There will be a screening period of up to 28 days prior to Day 1. Eligible participants will be enrolled in the study and will complete a 21-day Treatment Period. A follow-up (FU) telephone call will be performed approximately 26 days after discharge from the clinical research unit (CRU) on Day 47 (+2 days).

During screening, participants will sign the informed consent form (ICF) prior to any study procedures being performed. Participants must satisfy all the inclusion and exclusion criteria to be eligible for study participation. Participants will be admitted to the CRU on Day -1 for check-in procedures and eligibility confirmation. Participants will remain domiciled at the CRU until Day 21 after the last PK sample is collected and safety evaluations are completed.

Participants will receive a single 150 mg dose of nirogacestat in the morning of Day 1 following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours once eligibility is confirmed. Study treatment (nirogacestat) will be administered by mouth (PO) followed by 240 mL of water; otherwise, additional fluids will be restricted from 1 hour predose until 2 hours postdose. A mouth check will be done to ensure the study treatment has been consumed. Participants will continue to fast for approximately 4 hours after administration of study treatment.

On Day 6, participants will be administered a single 150 mg dose of nirogacestat in the morning after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours. Study treatment (nirogacestat) will be administered PO followed by 240 mL of water; otherwise, additional fluids will be restricted from 1 hour predose until 2 hours postdose. Two hours after the administration of nirogacestat, participants will be administered 40 mg of famotidine PO followed by 240 mL of water; additional fluids will be restricted until 2 hours post dose of famotidine and participants will continue to fast for approximately 2 hours after administration of famotidine.

Beginning in the evening of Day 10 through Day 16, participants will be administered a single dose of rabeprazole each evening. On Day 17, following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, participants will receive a single dose of nirogacestat in the morning. Study treatment will be administered PO followed by 240 mL of water; additional fluids will be restricted from 1 hour predose until 2 hours postdose; otherwise, participants will continue to fast for approximately 4 hours after administration of nirogacestat.

Participants will remain domiciled at the CRU until all safety evaluations are completed on Day 21.

Participants will complete a FU telephone visit on Day 47 (+2 days) for review of AEs/SAEs and concomitant medications.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Nirogacestat, Nirogacestat and Famotidine and Nirogacestat and Rabeprazole in people with Healthy, run by SpringWorks Therapeutics, Inc., a healthcare company of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany 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 12 inclusion and 29 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 8 May 2026. 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. 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?

Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity of nirogacestat. (time frame: Serial blood samples will be collected to determine concentrations of nirogacestat (in serum) on Day 1, Day 6, and Day 17 predose (-30 minutes) and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose). The study lists 4 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 8 May 2026.
