About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Two Part Trial (Sequential Single Subcutaneous Dose Rising Trial and Semi-Sequential Multiple Subcutaneous Dose Response Trial) to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of NNC 0070-0002-0453 in Overweight/Obese Male and Female Subjects

This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, efficacy and pharmacokinetics (the rate at which the trial drug is eliminated from the body) of NNC 0070-0002-0453 in overweight/obese, but otherwise healthy male and female volunteers. Selected subjects will continue in a follow-up period of up to 5 years.

Read the detailed description

Due to an unfavourable benefit-risk profile observed during the phase 1 trial for the obesity project, NN9161, Novo Nordisk has decided to terminate further clinical development.

Being tested
NNC 0070-0002-0453, '2-0453, placebo

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • NNC 0070-0002-0453Drug

    Administration of a single subcutaneous (under the skin) dose. Up to 7 escalating dose levels will be investigated. Progression to next dose level will be based on a safety evaluation.

  • '2-0453Drug

    Administration of multiple subcutaneous (under the skin) doses for 10 weeks. Up to 4 escalating dose levels will be investigated. Progression to next dose level will be based on a safety evaluation.

  • placeboDrug

    Placebo will be administered as a comparator at each dose level.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number and severity of adverse events

    Measured: From the first trial related activity (Day 1) and until completion of the post treatment follow-up visit (Day 22 +/- 1)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Terminal half-life (t½)

    Measured: After administration of a single dose of trial drug

  2. AUC 0-24h, area under the '2-453 concentration-time curve

    Measured: From 0 to 24 hours after steady state

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing NNC 0070-0002-0453 and '2-0453 in people with Metabolism and Nutrition Disorder and Obesity, run by Novo Nordisk A/S 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 8 inclusion and 7 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 27 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: See 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?

Number and severity of adverse events (time frame: From the first trial related activity (Day 1) and until completion of the post treatment follow-up visit (Day 22 +/- 1)). 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 27 Jul 2017.
