  • LDL ≥.3.24 mmol/L (≥ 100 mg/dL)
  • Triglycerides (fasted) < 4.5 mmol/L (< 398 mg/dL)
  • ALT within normal limits for healthy subjects and ALT < 2 x ULN for FH subjects

Who cannot join

  • Any uncontrolled or active major systemic disease including, but not limited to: cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, metabolic, urogenital, neurological, immunological, psychiatric, or neoplastic disorder with metastatic potential

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and Tolerability

    Safety evaluation will assess adverse event (AE) profile, clinical laboratory safety tests, vital signs and ECG monitoring

    Measured: Regularly over 78 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of SPC5001

    Measured: up to 78 days

  2. Lipid lowering effect

    Measured: Through out the study

  3. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of SPC5001

    Measured: up to 78 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SPC5001 and Saline 0.9% in people with Hypercholesterolemia, run by Santaris Pharma A/S at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 6 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 22 Nov 2011. 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 Netherlands. 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. 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?

Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Regularly over 78 days). 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 NCT01350960, 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 22 Nov 2011.
