About this study

Official title: A Single Dose, Non-randomised, Open-label, Parallel Group Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics, PCSK9 Reduction, Safety, and Tolerability of AZD8233 in Participants With Severe Renal Impairment, End Stage Renal Disease and Healthy Participants as Controls

The study is intended to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) reduction, safety and tolerability of AZD8233 in male and female participants with severe renal impairment and participants with ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, single dose, non-randomised, parallel group study. Participant will be enrolled in 3 cohorts.

  • Cohort 1 will include 8 participants with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] of ≥15 to < 30 mL/min/1.73 m^2).
  • Cohort 2 will include 8 healthy participants with normal renal function (eGFR of ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m^2) that will serve as matched controls for Cohort 1 and Cohort 3. Matching will account for age, Body mass index (BMI), and gender.
  • Cohort 3 will include 8 participants with ESRD on dialysis (eGFR of < 15 mL/min/1.73 m^2).
  • Participants in Cohort 3 will receive a single dose of AZD8233 the day after haemodialysis.

Participant will receive the study drug on Day 1, discharged on Day 2 followed by out-patient follow-up visits on Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56, and 90.

What is being measured

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

  1. Observed maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)

    The pharmacokinetics (PK) parameter of AZD8233 full-length antisense oligonucleotide (ASOs) in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using plasma concentrations. Cmax is defined as observed maximum plasma concentration of AZD8233.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hour post-dose, Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56 and 90

  2. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf)

    The PK of AZD8233 full-length ASOs in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using plasma concentrations. AUCinf is defined as area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity of AZD8233. AUCinf is estimated by AUClast + Clast/λz where Clast is the observed last quantifiable drug concentration.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hour post-dose, Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56 and 90

  3. Area under the plasma concentration-curve from time zero to time of last quantifiable concentration (AUClast)

    The PK of AZD8233 full-length ASOs in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using plasma concentrations. AUClast is defined as area under the plasma concentration-curve from time zero to time of last quantifiable concentration of AZD8233.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hour post-dose, Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56 and 90

  4. Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 hours after dosing (AUC0-24)

    The PK of AZD8233 full-length ASOs in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using plasma concentrations. AUC0-24 is defined as area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 hours after dosing of AZD8233.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hour post-dose

  5. Renal clearance (CLR)

    The PK of AZD8233 full-length ASOs in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using urine concentrations. CLR is defined as renal clearance of AZD8233 from plasma.

    Measured: Post-dose (0-8 hour and 8-24 hour) at Day 1

  6. Amount excreted in urine (Ae)

    The PK of AZD8233 full-length ASOs in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using urine concentrations. The PK urine parameters for AZD8233 full-length ASOs will be derived from Ae. Ae(0-last) is defined as cumulative amount of analyte excreted unchanged in urine at the last sampling interval of AZD8233.

    Measured: Post-dose (0-8 hour and 8-24 hour) at Day 1

  7. Fraction unbound in plasma (fe)

    The PK of AZD8233 full-length ASOs in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to matched healthy control participants will be assessed using urine concentrations. The PK urine parameters for AZD8233 full-length ASOs will be derived from fe. fe(0-last) is defined as percentage of dose excreted unchanged in urine from time zero to the last measured time-point for an analyte of AZD8233.

    Measured: Post-dose (0-8 hour and 8-24 hour) at Day 1

  8. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs)

    To assess safety and tolerability of AZD8233 in participants with severe renal impairment, ESRD and their healthy matched controls.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 90

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage reduction in proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) plasma levels from baseline

    To asses the percentage change from baseline in PCSK9 plasma levels over-time in participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD compared to their healthy matched controls.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hour post-dose, Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56 and 90

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted4 Oct 2021
  2. Study start10 Aug 2022
  3. Primary completion23 Nov 2022
  4. Study completion23 Nov 2022

Why it stopped: A decision has been taken to discontinue the development of AZD8233 (PCSK9-ASO for sc administration) due to low likelihood of demonstrating a benefit significantly above the current standard of care for patients with high-risk hypercholesterolemia.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD8233 in people with End Stage Renal Disease, run by AstraZeneca at 1 site in Poland.

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 9 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Dec 2022. 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 Poland. 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 was stopped early (reason given: A decision has been taken to discontinue the development of AZD8233 (PCSK9-ASO for sc administration) due to low likelihood of demonstrating a benefit significantly above the current standard of care for patients with high-risk hypercholesterolemia.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Observed maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) (time frame: Baseline, 24 hour post-dose, Day 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 56 and 90). The study lists 8 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 Dec 2022.
