  • Use of any prescription or over-the-counter (OTC) medications, including vitamins and herbal or dietary supplements within 14 days prior to dosing. Brief use of OTC medications for symptomatic relief of pain until 24 hours prior to and 48 hours after the study drug administration may be allowed per the discretion of the medical monitor.
  • Subjects who have received any vaccines within 4 weeks prior to study drug administration.
  • Subjects who donated blood or received blood or plasma derivatives in the one month preceding signing of consent form.
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Systemic corticosteroids other than in replacement doses within the 3 months before study entry (temporary adjustment of glucocorticoids, as appropriate, is acceptable)

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Vehicle-controlled, Parallel Group, Single Dose Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Three Doses of Long Acting HGH Product (MOD-4023) in Healthy Caucasian and Japanese Volunteers

The study is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled, single-dose, three dose levels study in healthy Caucasian and Japanese male volunteers.

Following a 4-week screening period, eligible male subjects will be stratified by ethnic group and will be randomized to one of six groups. On dosing day, designated as Day 1, each subject will receive single SC injection of study medication according to group allocation and will be followed up for a month for safety monitoring.

Being tested
MOD-4023, Placebo

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite safety and tolerability parameters as measured by adverse events, electrocardiograms (ECG), laboratory results, vital signs and injection site reactions

    To assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of MOD-4023 in healthy Caucasian and Japanese subjects after single subcutaneous (SC) dose.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Pharmacokinetics (PK) profile of MOD-4023 in healthy Caucasian and Japanese subjects after single SC dose

    MOD-4023 serum levels (T1/2, Area-Under-the-Curve, Cmax, Tmax)

    Measured: 7 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pharmacodynamic (PD) profile (IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 levels) to MOD-4023 in healthy Caucasian and Japanese subjects after single SC dose

    IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 serum levels (T1/2, AUC, Cmax, Tmax)

    Measured: 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MOD-4023 in people with Growth Hormone Deficiency, run by OPKO Health, Inc. 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 10 inclusion and 11 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 30 Sep 2019. 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?

Composite safety and tolerability parameters as measured by adverse events, electrocardiograms (ECG), laboratory results, vital signs and injection site reactions (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 2 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 30 Sep 2019.
