About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Crossover Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetic Profile, Safety, and Tolerability of Peginterferon Beta-1a (BIIB017) Delivered by Pre-filled Syringe (PFS) or Autoinjector in Healthy Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, safety, and tolerability of peginterferon beta-1a (BIIB017) delivered by the single-use autoinjector or prefilled syringe (PFS) in healthy volunteers to support the development of the autoinjector.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, open-label, 2-sequence, 2-period crossover study that will be conducted at a single site in the United States to characterize the PK profile, safety and tolerability of peginterferon beta-1a delivered by autoinjector or PFS. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive a single dose of peginterferon beta-1a at Day 1 delivered by either autoinjector or PFS, followed by a single dose of peginterferon beta 1a delivered by the other device at Day 22. The total duration of study participation is up to 3 months for each participant. Participants will complete a follow-up visit at Day 50 after the end of treatment period.

What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the time-concentration curve for serum concentrations of peginterferon beta-1a from time zero to infinity post dose (AUC0-∞)

    Measured: For 11 days (multiple timepoints) after each dose on Day 1 and 22

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of peginterferon beta-1a

    Measured: For 11 days (multiple timepoints) after each dose on Day 1 and 22

  2. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 50

  3. Changes in clinical laboratory assessments

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 50

  4. Vital sign changes

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 50)

  5. Physical exam changes

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 50

  6. Electrocardiogram changes

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 50

  7. Clinician injection site assessment

    Measured: Days 1+2, 22+23

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIIB017 (peginterferon beta-1a) Pre-filled syringe (PFS) and BIIB017 (peginterferon beta-1a) Autoinjector in people with Healthy and Multiple Sclerosis, run by Biogen 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 1 inclusion and 4 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 13 Jun 2014. 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 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?

Area under the time-concentration curve for serum concentrations of peginterferon beta-1a from time zero to infinity post dose (AUC0-∞) (time frame: For 11 days (multiple timepoints) after each dose on Day 1 and 22). 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 13 Jun 2014.
