About this study

Official title: A Phase I Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Single-Blind, Multiple-Dose, Dose-Escalation Clinical Study to Assess the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of SRT2379 in Normal Healthy Male Volunteers

The main purpose of this study is to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of SRT2379 (25, 75, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, and 3000 mg/day [fasted] and 500 mg/day [fed]) in healthy male volunteers.

The purpose is also to explore the effect of SRT2379 on plasma concentrations of Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21) and to identify other possible biomarkers suitable for future clinical assessment of oral SIRT1 activators.

Read the detailed description

Prospective, single center, clinical study of SRT2379 administered orally. Randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind, multiple-dose, dose-escalation inpatient/outpatient study to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of SRT2379 in healthy male volunteers. Approximately sixty-four (64) subjects aged 18-55, who fulfill the inclusion/exclusion criteria, will be enrolled in this study. Eight cohorts of eight subjects each will be examined. Subjects within each cohort will be randomized 6:2 to receive SRT2379 at one of seven escalating doses (A, B, C, D, E, F or G), likely to be 25, 75, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, and 3000 mg/day or placebo. All cohorts will be administered SRT2379 in the fasted state, with the exception of one cohort that will receive one of the stated doses of SRT2379 in the fed state (the dose of SRT2379 administered to subjects in the fed state is planned to be 500 mg, however this may be modified upwards or downwards following evaluation of safety and pharmacokinetic data from earlier cohorts. The fed cohort will be the final cohort dosed in the study.). Two subjects will be dosed on Day 1 of the single dose period with one subject receiving active treatment and one subject receiving placebo. The remainder of subjects within each cohort will be dosed on Day 2 of the single dose period with five subjects receiving active treatment and one subject receiving placebo, assuming that no safety issues arise in the two subjects dosed on Day 1. Subjects will remain on a fixed dose of test material for all dosing days in the study.

Each cohort of subjects will be dosed sequentially approximately three weeks apart for the single dose period, and return to the study unit approximately two weeks after their single dose administration to receive 7 consecutive days of dosing for the multiple-dose period. Each cohort of subjects in the multiple-dose period will be dosed sequentially, approximately, two weeks apart (from multiple dose period Day 7 of preceding cohort to multiple dose period Day 1 dose of the subsequent cohort), allowing for a comprehensive safety assessment prior to initiation of an escalated dose in a subsequent cohort.

Subjects will sign the informed consent form at the Screening Visit. If eligible and willing to participate, subjects will enter into the study. Subjects will have fasted for at least 10 hours overnight and be randomized to receive SRT2379 or placebo (test material). The subject cohort assigned to the fed dose will consume a standardized meal before receiving test material; all other subjects will receive test material in a fasted state. Subjects will be required to stay overnight at the study unit for two nights during the single dose period of the study and subsequently, for the duration of the seven-day multiple-dose period (8 consecutive overnight stays) to assess safety and to gather required PK samples. Subjects will be asked to return to the study center for an End of Study safety assessment approximately 1 week after the last administration of study drug during the multiple-dose period.

Dose escalation will be dependent on safety parameters (physical examination findings, vital signs, ECG studies, adverse events and laboratory values) and PK data.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the safety and tolerability of SRT2379 (25, 75, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 mg/day [fasted] and 500 mg/day [fed]) in healthy male volunteers after single and multiple dose administration in the fasted and fed states.

    Measured: Single Dose Period PK samples will be collected on Day1 at 0h, 15min, 30min, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24hrs post-dose. Multiple Dose Period PK samples will be collected on Days1-6 at 0h only, and on Day7 at 0h, 15min, 30min, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24hrs post-dose.

  2. To determine the pharmacokinetic profile of SRT2379 (25, 75, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 mg/day [fasted] and 500 mg/day [fed]) in healthy male volunteers after single and multiple dose administration in the fasted and fed states.

    Measured: AEs and clinically significant abnormal lab values will be recorded based upon Investigator observation and subject reporting. Safety will be monitored by AEs, VS, physical exam, labs and ECGs during the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SRT2379 in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, 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 9 inclusion and 13 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 9 Jun 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 determine the safety and tolerability of SRT2379 (25, 75, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 mg/day [fasted] and 500 mg/day [fed]) in healthy male volunteers after single and multiple dose administration in the fasted and fed states. (time frame: Single Dose Period PK samples will be collected on Day1 at 0h, 15min, 30min, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24hrs post-dose. Multiple Dose Period PK samples will be collected on Days1-6 at 0h only, and on Day7 at 0h, 15min, 30min, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24hrs post-dose.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01018628, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Jun 2017.
