About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Two-Part, Open-label Study in Healthy Adult Volunteers to Assess a Single Dose of Vadadustat as a Victim in Drug-Drug Interactions With Cyclosporine, Probenecid and Rifampin

This is a Phase 1, two-part, open-label study to evaluate the interaction of cyclosporine, probenecid, and rifampin as perpetrators with vadadustat (victim) in healthy male and female subjects.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, two-part, open-label study to evaluate the interaction of cyclosporine, probenecid, and rifampin as perpetrators with vadadustat (victim) in healthy male and female subjects. Part 1 consists of 2 arms (cyclosporine and probenecid) and Part 2 consists of 1 arm (rifampin). Twenty (20) unique subjects will be enrolled into each study arm. The PK and safety/tolerability data from Part 1 Arm 1 (cyclosporine) will determine if Part 2 (rifampin) will proceed. Subjects will be on study for up to 72 days, including a 28-day screening period, 6-10 day clinic period, and a 30-day follow-up period post last dose. Blood and/or urine samples for PK analysis will be collected at pre-defined timepoints throughout the study.

Being tested
vadadustat, Rifampin, Probenecid, Cyclosporins

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing vadadustat, Rifampin and Probenecid in people with Drug Interaction Potentiation, run by Akebia Therapeutics at 1 site in Canada.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 22 Mar 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 Canada. 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?

Area under plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to last quantifiable concentration (AUClast) of vadadustat (time frame: Up to 10 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 22 Mar 2019.
