About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Participant and Investigator Blinded, Placebo Controlled, Single Ascending Dose Study Investigating the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of LNA043 in Japanese Participants Wit Osteoarthritis of the Knee

The objective of this study was to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics after single ascending dose of LNA043 in Japanese participants with osteoarthritis of the knee.

Read the detailed description

This was a non-confirmatory, randomized, participant- and investigator-blinded, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose study to investigate the safety, tolerability and PK of LNA043 in Japanese participants with osteoarthritis of the knee. This study consisted of 2 cohorts with a total of 12 participants.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with adverse events

    To assess the safety and tolerability of single intra-articular injection of LNA043 in Japanese participants with osteoarthritis of the knee

    Measured: Up to Day 22

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Area under the serum concentration-time curve of LNA043 from zero to the last measurable concentration

    To assess systemic PK of LNA043 following single intra-articular injection of LNA043 in Japanese participants with osteoarthritis of the knee

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.25, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 168 hours post-dose

  2. Observed maximum serum concentration of LNA043

    To assess systemic PK of LNA043 following single intra-articular injection of LNA043 in Japanese participants with osteoarthritis of the knee

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.25, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 168 hours post-dose

  3. Number of participants with anti-LNA043 antibodies in serum

    To assess systemic immunogenicity of LNA043 (anti-LNA043 antibodies) following single intra-articular injection of LNA043 in Japanese participants with osteoarthritis of the knee

    Measured: Day 1 (pre-dose), 4, 8, 15, 22

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LNA043 in people with Osteoarthritis and Knee, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 2 sites in Japan.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 10 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Japan. 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?

Number of participants with adverse events (time frame: Up to Day 22). 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 10 Aug 2022.
