About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Crossover Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Effects on Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of Oral Administration of XEN1101 in Healthy Male Subjects

The XEN1101 Phase 1 clinical trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will eventuate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and effects on transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of oral doses of XEN1101 in healthy male subjects.The TMS procedure is designed to demonstrate delivery of XEN1101 into the central nervous system and to observe a change in cortical excitability as measured by EEG and/or EMG activity. It is estimated there will be approximately 15 subjects in the planned study.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) as assessed by CTCAE v4.03

    To assess AEs as a criteria of safety and tolerability

    Measured: From screening (28 days prior to Day 1) through to 30 days post-final dose

  2. Resting 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG)

    To assess ECG intervals (PR, QRS, QTcF, RR) as a criteria of safety and tolerability

    Measured: From screening (28 days prior to Day 1) through to Day 14

  3. Number of participants with vital sign abnormalities

    To assess vital signs as a criteria of safety and tolerability

    Measured: From screening (28 days prior to Day 1) through to Day 14

  4. Pharmacodynamic (PD) Effects assessed by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) biological markers of brain excitability

    To assess biological marker of brain excitability: amplitude (in uV) of TMS evoked potentials on the EEG

    Measured: Day 1 predose through to Day 7

  5. PD Effects assessed by TMS biological markers of brain excitability

    To assess biological marker of brain excitability: resting motor threshold (in %) for elicitation of an electromyographic response

    Measured: Day 1 predose through to Day 7

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration in ng/mL

    Measured: Day 1 predose through to Day 8

  2. Terminal elimination half-life (t1/2)

    The time in hours required for the plasma level of the study drug to decrease by one-half during the terminal elimination phase

    Measured: Day 1 predose through to Day 8

  3. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve from Time Zero to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Plasma Concentration (AUC0-last)

    The area under the plasma concentration-time curve [in ng.h/mL] from time zero to the time corresponding to the last quantifiable plasma concentration

    Measured: Day 1 predose through to Day 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing XPF-008 and Microcrystalline Cellulose in people with Healthy Male Volunteers, run by Xenon Pharmaceuticals Inc. at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 6 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 18 Sep 2018. 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 Kingdom. 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 adverse events (AEs) as assessed by CTCAE v4.03 (time frame: From screening (28 days prior to Day 1) through to 30 days post-final dose). 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 18 Sep 2018.
