What is being measured

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

  1. 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG)

    Changes of 12-lead ECG from baseline

    Measured: From the screening period to 29 days after administration

  2. Renal Ultrasonography

    The examination of both kidneys using medical ultrasonography will be performed to detect any harmful abscesses, fluid collection, and infection within or around the kidneys.

    Measured: From the screening period to 29 days after administration

  3. Physical examinations

    Number of participants with abnormal Physical examinations.

    Measured: From the screening period to 90 days after administration

  4. Injection site reactions assessments

    The injection site reaction assessment will be done by the PI/investigational staff and study subject using the criteria, which consist of rating the severity of redness, swelling, skin temperature, sensitivity and pain at the injection site.

    Measured: Within 3 days of administration

  5. Anti-Drug Antibody(ADA)

    he incidence and proportion of ADA positive subjects.

    Measured: Within 29 days of administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing B1344 in people with Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis, run by Tasly Biopharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. 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 52 inclusion and 0 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact David Han, MD (800-239-4367, david.han@cctrials.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) (time frame: From the screening period to 29 days after administration). The study lists 5 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 Dec 2022.
