About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Partial Blind, 3 Parallel Groups Study of the Pharmacodynamic Profile of SAR236553 (REGN727) Administered as Multiple Subcutaneous Doses, Either Alone or on Top of Ezetimibe or Fenofibrate Administered as Multiple Oral Doses in Healthy Subjects

Primary Objective:

To assess the pharmacodynamic profile of alirocumab (SAR236553/REGN727) administered either alone or on top of ezetimibe or fenofibrate, based on low-density lipoprotein -cholesterol (LDL-C).

Secondary Objectives:

  • To assess the pharmacodynamic profile of alirocumab administered either alone or on top of ezetimibe or fenofibrate, based on other lipid parameters.
  • To assess the pharmacokinetic profile of alirocumab administered either alone or on top of ezetimibe or fenofibrate.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Alirocumab, Ezetimibe and Fenofibrate in people with Hypercholesterolemia, run by Sanofi at 2 sites in France.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 28 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

Assessment of the effect of alirocumab on LDL-C (time frame: Up to 18 weeks). 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 NCT01723735, 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 28 Sep 2016.
