About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single and Multiple-Dose Study of the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Alogliptin 12.5 mg, 25 mg and 50 mg in Healthy Korean Subjects

The purpose of this study is to assess the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of alogliptin after a single or multiple administrations, once daily (QD), of oral alogliptin in healthy Korean subjects.

Read the detailed description

Alogliptin is a selective, orally available inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 being developed by Takeda Global Research \& Development Center, Inc. as a treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus. Inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) prolongs the action of 2 important incretin hormones, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP). These hormones are responsible for increasing insulin synthesis, regulating β-cell proliferation, inhibiting gastric emptying and inhibiting glucagon secretion.

Evaluations of alogliptin and its clinical efficacy have been conducted in multiple countries including the United States and Japan. As development of alogliptin expands to other countries, additional studies are needed to bridge between the data previously acquired.

The main objective of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of alogliptin in healthy Korean participants.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration Pharmacokinetic Parameter

    Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) is the peak plasma concentration after administrations of a single dose and multiple doses of the study drug

    Measured: Day 1-4, Day 10

  2. Tmax: Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) Pharmacokinetic Parameter

    Time to reach the maximum plasma concentration (Tmax) after administrations of a single dose and multiple doses of the study drug

    Measured: Day 1-4, Day 10.

  3. AUC(0-inf): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity Pharmacokinetic Parameter

    Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity after administration of a single dose of the study drug.

    Measured: Day 1-4

  4. AUC(0-24): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to 24 Hours Pharmacokinetic Parameter.

    Area under the curve from 0 to 24 hours after administrations of a single dose and multiple doses of the study drug.

    Measured: Day 1-4, Day 10.

  5. Terminal Phase Elimination Half-life (T1/2) Pharmacokinetic Parameter

    Time required for half of the drug to be eliminated from the plasma after administration of a single dose of the study drug.

    Measured: Day 1-4

  6. Oral Clearance (CL/F) Pharmacokinetic Parameter

    CL/F is apparent clearance of the drug from the plasma after administration of a single dose of the study drug.

    Measured: Day 1-4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Alogliptin in people with Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics, run by Takeda at 1 site in South Korea.

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 7 inclusion and 22 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 22 Mar 2013. 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 South Korea. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Mar 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration Pharmacokinetic Parameter (time frame: Day 1-4, Day 10). The study lists 6 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 22 Mar 2013.
