About this study

Official title: A Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Multiple Ascending Oral Doses of anle138b, and to Characterise the Effect of Food of anle138b in Mild to Moderate Parkinson's Disease

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and blood levels of orally administered anle138b as well as the effect of food and early signs of efficacy in patients with mild to moderate Parkinson´s disease.

Read the detailed description

This is a two centre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study in patients with mild to moderate Parkinson´s disease. It is planned to enrol up to 5 cohorts. Cohorts A-C consist of up to 8 subjects. In Cohorts A and B, subjects will be randomly assigned to receive multiple ascending oral doses of anle138b or matching placebo (6 active investigational medicinal product [IMP], 2 placebo per cohort in cohorts A-C) for 7 days in a sequential escalating manner. Subjects in cohort A and B will be dosed once dialy and subjects in cohort C will be dosed twice a day. Subjects in Cohorts A and B will also receive an additional single oral dose of active IMP or matching placebo on Day 9 of the study for an assessment of the effect of food on the PK of anle138b in PD patients. Subjects in cohort D will be randomly assigned to receive QD doses of anle138b or matching placebo (placebo vs 150 mg vs 300 mg; 1:1:1) for 7 days in fasted state. Subjects in Cohort E will be randomly assigned to receive QD doses of either 300 mg anle138b or matching placebo (1:1) for 28 days taken in the non-fasted state.

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?

Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events in PD patients with multiple ascending doses of anle138b taken in the fasted state (cohorts A-C + D). (time frame: Day 1 to day 14-16: cohorts A-C; day 1 to week 6 post dosing: cohort D). The study lists 33 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04685265, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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 2023.
