Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • The study is open to healthy male and female volunteers, 18 to 60 years of age, with hematology, clinical chemistry, electrolytes, serology, and urinalysis tests within normal, allowable limits using normal laboratory values (if out-of-range values result, they must be considered clinically significant by the Investigator to be exclusionary) and performed within 21 days to 1 day of receiving the first dose of test material.
  • All male subjects and their female partners must be willing and able to use an acceptable form of double-barrier birth control (hormonal or double barrier method of birth control [condom and occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps) with spermicidal foam, gel, film, cream, or suppository]; true abstinence) for at least 12 weeks after the last treatment dose.
  • All female subjects must be of non-childbearing potential. For the purposes of this study, non-childbearing potential is defined as pre-menopausal females with a documented tubal ligation or hysterectomy; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea [in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) > 40 MlU/ml and estradiol < 40 pg/ml (<140 pmol/L) is confirmatory]. [Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use adequate contraception (hormonal or double barrier method of birth control [condom and occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps) with spermicidal foam, gel, film, cream, or suppository]; true abstinence) for the duration of the study dosing and for at least 12 weeks after the last treatment dose, if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2-4 weeks will elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method].

About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multi-way Crossover Study to Assess the Effects of Single Oral Doses of SRT2104 and Prednisolone on Biomarkers in Blood in Healthy Volunteers

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacodynamic effect of single, oral doses of SRT2104 (250 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg, 2000 mg) and prednisolone as measured by levels of ex vivo LPS-induced TNF-alpha production in whole blood of healthy adult subjects.

The secondary purposes of this study are to assess the pharmacodynamic effects of single, oral doses of SRT2104 (250 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg, 2000 mg) and prednisolone (30mg) as measured by levels of IL-6, IL-8 and IL-1beta in whole blood of healthy adult subjects. In addition, plasma pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of SRT2104 following the administration of single, oral doses of SRT2104 (250 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg, 2000 mg) in healthy adult subjects will also be assessed. As exploratory endpoints, transcriptomic profiles, biomarker exploration, and relationships between plasma SRT2104 levels and ex vivo LPS-induced TNF-alpha production may also be examined.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, single center, non-therapeutic clinical study of SRT2104 administered orally as 250 mg capsules. Randomized, double-blind study to evaluate and compare the sensitivity of systemic biomarkers, such as ex-vivo LPS-induced TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1beta, to treatment with four-single oral doses of SRT2104 (250 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg, and 2000 mg), prednisolone (30 mg), and placebo in healthy adult volunteers. Twenty (20) subjects (males and females of non-childbearing potential) aged 18-60, who fulfill the inclusion/exclusion criteria, will be enrolled in this study to achieve a minimum of 15 evaluable subjects. Each subject will participate in 6 treatment periods. For each treatment period subjects will fast for at least 10 hours overnight. After pre-dosing procedures, subjects will consume a standard, non-high-fat (approximately 650 kcal with approximately 30% of calories derived from fat) meal 15-30 minutes prior to receiving test material. During the first five treatment periods, subjects will receive a single dose of SRT2104 or matched placebo; during the last treatment period, subjects will receive 30 mg open-label prednisolone. Assessments will be performed until 24 hours post dose in each treatment period.

Subjects will be asked to sign the informed consent form(s) at the screening visit. If eligible and willing to participate, subjects will enter into the study. Subjects will be required to attend the research unit in a fasted state (at least 10 hours without food) on six separate occasions (treatment visits) during the study. There will be at least a 7-day washout period between treatment visits.

During the first five treatment visits, subjects will receive one of the following five treatments:

  1. 250 mg SRT2104 administered as eight oral capsules (one active SRT2104 250 mg capsule + seven placebo capsules) B. 500 mg SRT2104 administered as eight oral capsules (two active SRT2104 250 mg capsules + six placebo capsules) C. 1000 mg SRT2104 administered as eight oral capsules (four active SRT2104 250 mg capsules + four placebo capsules) D. 2000 mg SRT2104 administered as eight oral capsules (eight active SRT2104 250 mg capsules + zero placebo capsules) E. Eight placebo capsules

During the last treatment visit, subjects will receive 30 mg of open-label prednisolone tablets.

Subjects will be required to return to the research unit 24 hours after dosing in each treatment period in order to gather the required PK and PD samples. Subjects will be asked to return to the study center for an End of Study safety assessment 7 to 10 days after the last treatment visit.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 0.25g SRT2104, Prednisolone and 0.5g SRT2104 in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, 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 3 inclusion and 0 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?

To assess the pharmacodynamic effect of single, oral doses of SRT2104 (250 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg, and 2000 mg) and prednisolone (30 mg) as measured by levels of ex vivo LPS-induced TNF-alpha production in whole blood of healthy adult subjects. (time frame: Duration of treatment periods.). 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.
