About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized, Single-Ascending Dose Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of JNJ-54861911 in Healthy Japanese Male Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK, study of the way a drug enters and leaves the blood and tissues over time) of single-ascending oral doses of JNJ-54861911 in healthy Japanese male participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, randomized (study medication assigned to participants by chance), double-blind (neither Investigator nor participant knows which treatment the participant receives), placebo controlled (placebo is an inactive substance that is compared with a drug to test whether the drug has a real effect in a clinical trial), study of a single-ascending dose of JNJ-54861911 in participants between 55 to 75 years of age. The duration of study will be approximately 2 to 6 weeks per participant. The study consists of 3 periods: Screening period (28 to 2 days prior to dose administration); Double-blind Treatment period (participants will receive either a single oral dose of JNJ-54861911 or placebo as tablets under fasted conditions); and a Follow-up visit period (7 to 14 days after dose administration). All the eligible participants will be assigned to any of following 3 cohorts: Cohort A (single oral dose of JNJ-54861911, 25 milligram [mg] or placebo); Cohort B (single oral dose of JNJ-54861911, 50 mg or placebo); Cohort C (single oral dose of JNJ-54861911, 100 mg or placebo). Each cohort will include 8 participants. Participants in each cohort will be randomly assigned to receive either a single oral dose of JNJ-54861911 (n = 6) or placebo (n = 2). Blood samples will be collected pre-dose and over 96 hours (that is up to Day 5) after dosing for understanding the PK characteristics of JNJ-54861911. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) or Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study drug and up to 14 days after last dose administration, that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state.

    Measured: Screening up to 14 days after last dose administration or early withdrawal

  2. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    The Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96 hours post-administration of drug on Day 1

  3. Time to Reach Maximum Concentration (Tmax)

    The Tmax is time to reach the maximum observed plasma concentration.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96 hours post-administration of drug on Day 1

  4. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Time (AUC [0-last])

    The AUC (0-last) is area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to time of last quantifiable concentration (Clast).

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96 hours post-administration of drug on Day 1

  5. Apparent Clearance (CL/F)

    Clearance of a drug is a measure of the rate at which a drug is metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes. Clearance obtained after oral dose (apparent oral clearance) is influenced by the fraction of the dose absorbed. Drug clearance is a quantitative measure of the rate at which a drug substance is removed from the blood.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96 hours post-administration of drug on Day 1

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Amyloid-Beta Concentration

    Amyloid-beta (biomarker, supposed to be a key feature in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease) levels in CSF will be explored.

    Measured: 24 hours pre-administration of drug on Day -1, 24 hours post-administration of drug on Day 2

  2. Plasma Amyloid-Beta Concentration

    Amyloid-beta (biomarker, supposed to be a key feature in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease) levels in plasma will be explored.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96 hours post-administration of drug on Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing JNJ-54861911 (25 mg), JNJ-54861911 (50 mg) and JNJ-54861911 (100 mg) in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K. at 1 site in Japan.

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 5 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 12 Sep 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 Japan. 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?

Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) or Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) (time frame: Screening up to 14 days after last dose administration or early withdrawal). The study lists 5 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 12 Sep 2014.
