Trial summary

PF-04603629 is being investigated for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Specifically, PF-04603629 is a protein that is a combination of exendin-4 (a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) mimetic currently marketed as Byetta®) fused to human transferrin (a naturally occuring protein) in order to increase the… Read more about this study

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are not taking any treatment or are taking metformin (with no change in the treatment, including dose, over the past 2 months). Subjects previously treated with a sulfonylurea in combination with metformin may be eligible if switched over to metformin only for a minimum of 4 weeks before dosing.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Sequential Parallel Group, Multiple Dose Escalation Trial To Evaluate The Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, And Pharmacodynamics Of 4, Once-Weekly Subcutaneous Doses Of PF-04603629 To Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

PF-04603629 is being investigated for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Specifically, PF-04603629 is a protein that is a combination of exendin-4 (a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) mimetic currently marketed as Byetta®) fused to human transferrin (a naturally occuring protein) in order to increase the concentration of exendin-4 in the blood. The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of PF-04603629 following multiple escalating subcutaneous doses in adult subjects with T2DM.

Read the detailed description

B0571002 was terminated August 19 2008 due to the decision to discontinue development of PF-04603629 after observing (in both B0571001 and B0571002) a trend for a reversible increase in heart rate within the normal range, which occurred at efficacious doses. Thus, the compound was primarily terminated due to safety concerns, although there was no immediate safety risk to any subject in the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. To characterize the pharmacokinetics of PF-04603629 in serum after administration of escalating, multiple, subcutaneously injected doses of PF-04603629 to subjects with T2DM.

    Measured: 4 weeks per dose group

  2. To evaluate the effects of multiple, escalating, subcutaneously injected doses of PF-04603629, on the pharmacodynamic responses of glucose, insulin, C-peptide and glucagon during a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT).

    Measured: 4 weeks per dose group

  3. To describe the safety and tolerability of escalating, multiple, subcutaneously injected doses of PF-04603629 administered to subjects with T2DM.

    Measured: 4 weeks per dose group

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate the effect of multiple, escalating, subcutaneously injected doses of PF-04603926 on additional exploratory efficacy biomarkers related to this drug's target in subjects with T2DM.

    Measured: 4 weeks per dose group

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PF-04603629 in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Pfizer at 4 sites 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 5 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jul 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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. 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 was stopped early (reason given: See termination reason in detailed description.). 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?

To characterize the pharmacokinetics of PF-04603629 in serum after administration of escalating, multiple, subcutaneously injected doses of PF-04603629 to subjects with T2DM. (time frame: 4 weeks per dose group). The study lists 3 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 31 Jul 2009.
