  2. Pharmacokinetic Parameters of BAF312 and Selected Metabolites: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast)

    The pharmacokinetics of BAF312 were studied in plasma up to 504 hours post-dose at the following time points: pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, 216, 312, 408 and 504 hours post dose.

  3. Pharmacokinetic Parameters of BAF312 and Selected Metabolites: Observed Maximum Plasma Concentration Following Drug Administration at Steady State (Cmax)

    The pharmacokinetics of BAF312 were studied in plasma up to 504 hours post-dose at the following time points: pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, 216, 312, 408 and 504 hours post dose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Patients With Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events and Death Adverse Events (Frequency of Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events, and Notable Laboratory Abnormalities) of of BAF312 After a Single Dose of BAF312

    Physical examination, vital signs, body temperature, standard safety laboratory evaluations (hematology, clinical chemistry, coagulation, Hepatitis B and C and HIV serology, α-fetoprotein [in hepatically impaired subjects only], pregnancy test, alcohol and drug screen), standard 12-lead electrocardiogram , cardiac monitoring, 24-h Holter ECG, suicidality assessment (C-SSRS), (serious) adverse event monitoring.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BAF312 in people with Hepatic Impairment, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 21 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 29 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Hungary, Russia. 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 Dec 2014). 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?

Pharmacokinetic Parameters of BAF312 and Selected Metabolites: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUCinf) (time frame: pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, 216, 312, 408 and 504 hours post dose.). The study lists 3 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 29 Dec 2020.
