About this study

Official title: A Two-Part Phase 2a Study in Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease Treated With Hemodialysis; Part A is an Open-Label Study Arm to Evaluate the Effect of Hemodialysis on the Pharmacokinetics of 100 mg RVX000222; and Part B is a Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Sequential Cross-Over Study Arm to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of RVX000222

This is a multi-center, two-part study; Part A and Part B. Part A of the study is an open-label, single-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) evaluation of 100 mg RVX000222 on dialysis and non-dialysis days in eight (8) End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients who receive hemodialysis as standard of care.

Part B of the study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in up to thirty six (36) ESRD patients receiving hemodialysis using a sequential cross-over design with RVX000222 at a daily oral dose of 100 mg b.i.d. (200 mg per day) or matching placebo in combination with SoC.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate if treatment with RVX000222 in combination with standard of care (SoC) decreases plasma alkaline phosphatase in comparison to placebo and SoC.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing apabetalone in people with Kidney Failure, Chronic, run by Resverlogix Corp.

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 24 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Sr. Director of Clinical Operations (403-254-9252, clinicaltrials@resverlogix.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percent change in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) concentration (Part B) (time frame: Percent change is computed relative to the beginning of each period (6 weeks)). 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 15 Nov 2023.
