What is being measured

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

  1. Ratio of the AUC-last at Week 15 (after multiple doses of tralokinumab) to that on Day -7 (at baseline) for each of the 5 substrates

    AUC-last = area under the plasma concentration curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable observation

    Measured: Day -7 and Week 15

  2. Ratio of the Cmax at Week 15 (after multiple doses of tralokinumab) to that on Day -7 (at baseline) for each of the 5 substrates

    Cmax = maximum observed plasma concentration

    Measured: Day -7 and Week 15

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Ratio of the AUC-last on Day 8 (after a single dose of tralokinumab) to that on Day -7 (at baseline) for each of the 5 substrates

    AUC-last = area under the plasma concentration curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable observation

    Measured: Day -7 and Day 8

  2. Ratio of the Cmax on Day 8 (after a single dose of tralokinumab) to that on Day -7 (at baseline) for each of the 5 substrates

    Cmax = maximum observed plasma concentration

    Measured: Day -7 and Day 8

  3. Ratio of the AUC-inf on Day 8 (after a single dose of tralokinumab) to that on Day -7 (at baseline) for each of the 5 substrates

    AUC-inf = area under the plasma concentration curve from time 0 to infinity

    Measured: Day -7 and Day 8

  4. Number of adverse events

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 30

  5. Presence of anti-drug antibodies (yes/no)

    Measured: From Day 1 up to Week 30

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tralokinumab, Caffeine and Warfarin in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by LEO Pharma at 12 sites in 3 countries.

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 12 inclusion and 22 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 24 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States, France, Netherlands. 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?

Ratio of the AUC-last at Week 15 (after multiple doses of tralokinumab) to that on Day -7 (at baseline) for each of the 5 substrates (time frame: Day -7 and Week 15). 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 24 Feb 2025.
