About this study

Official title: An Open Label Positron Emission Tomography Study in Healthy Male Subjects to Investigate Brain Dopamine D3 Receptor Occupancy, Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Single Oral Doses of GSK618334, Using 11C-PHNO as PET Ligand.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the plasma concentrations of the study drug and the amount of the study drug bound to the D3 receptors of the brain after dosing of a new compound GSK618334.

Read the detailed description

This imaging study will be an open label, non-randomised PET receptor occupancy study using healthy male volunteers. The time course and degree of D3 receptor occupancy (RO) after single doses of GSK618334 will be determined using 11C-PHNO as a PET ligand labeling dopamine receptor. The PK/PD relationship between plasma concentrations of GSK618334 and D3 RO will be described. Potential relationships between D3 RO and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) endpoints will be assessed as an exploratory aim.

What is being measured

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

  1. Binding of PHNO, PET ligand, in each region of interest at each scan.

    Measured: up to 48 hours

  2. Percentage of PHNO, PET ligand, occupancy in each region of interest after a single oral dose of GSK618334 for each individual.

    Measured: up to 48 hours

  3. Time course of GSK618334 concentration in blood following a single oral dose.

    Measured: up to 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Adverse events and other safety assessments such as clinically relevant changes in electrocardiography (ECG); vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate); laboratory safety data and physical examination.

    Measured: screening to follow-up

  2. Measuring GSK618334 in the body (pharmacokinetic endpoints): PK parameters of GSK618334 Cmax, AUCinf, tmax.

    Measured: up to 48 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GSK618334 in people with Substance Dependence, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 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 7 Jul 2017. 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 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. 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?

Binding of PHNO, PET ligand, in each region of interest at each scan. (time frame: up to 48 hours). 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 7 Jul 2017.
