Who may be able to join

  • Subjects must be medically documented as healthy at the time of screening as determined by their medical history, physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead ECG, and clinical laboratory tests, unless the Investigator considers an abnormality to be clinically irrelevant.

About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Single-dose Escalation Study of SQ-001 Infusion at a Single Center to Characterize the PK Profiles of Major Sentinel Compounds, Astragaloside IV, Calycosin 7-O-beta-glucopyranoside, and Lobetyolin in the Plasma of Healthy Adult Volunteers in the United States

This is a single-center, double-blind, single-dose escalation study in healthy volunteers.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, double-blind, single-dose escalation study in healthy volunteers consisting of a 14-day Screening Period, 1-day Predose period, a 2-day Dosing and Evaluation Period, and a 5-day Follow-up Period, with a single Follow-up call scheduled on Day 7 ± 1. Subjects will be confined to the study site for up to 3 days (admitted on Day -1 and discharged on Day 2 or 3, depending on cohort) and will be monitored for adverse events (AEs) and dose limiting toxicities (DLT) during the Dosing, Evaluation and Follow-up Periods. Subjects will also be monitored for concomitant medications and use of rescue medications throughout the study.

Subjects will be allocated 1:4 to receive an infusion of saline control (0.9% saline for injection) or Shenqi Fuzheng Injection(SQ-001) continuously for about 1-4 hours. SQ 001 will be administered by intravenous route at a rate of 3 mL/min to one of four final dosages: Cohort 1 (125 mL/day/person), Cohort 2 (250 mL/day/person), Cohort 3 (500 mL/day/person), and Cohort 4 (625 mL/day/person). Each cohort will be enrolled sequentially. Per cohort, three subjects will be dosed initially on Day 1 and observed for 24 hours. If there are no observed AEs that meet the criteria under Stopping Rules, the remaining 7 subjects/cohort will be dosed. Dose escalation to the next higher dose will be based on the observation of results in safety and degree of AEs from the previous cohort and discussion between the Investigator and Sponsor.

A maximum 17 PK samples will be collected over the course of the study in each cohort. The PK sampling time points will be grouped as (a) pre-infusion; (b) intra-infusion; (c) completion of infusion; and (d) post-infusion. See Table 10 for plasma PK sampling times. The last PK sample will be collected 24 hours after the end of infusion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SQ001 125mL/day, SQ001 250mL/day and SQ001 500mL/day in people with Solid Tumor Refractory to Standard Therapy, run by Livzon Pharmaceutical Group 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 12 inclusion and 14 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 19 Jul 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. 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 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?

The maximum observed concentrations (Cmax)(ng/mL) (time frame: On 1 and 2 days (dosing day and the following evaluation day)). The study lists 6 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 19 Jul 2019.
