About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multi-part, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study of CK-4021586 in Healthy Adult Participants

The purposes of this study are to:

  • Learn about the safety and tolerability of CK 4021586 after a single dose and multiple doses in healthy subjects.
  • Find out how much CK-4021586 is in the blood after a single dose and multiple doses.
  • Determine the effect different doses of CK-4021586 on the pumping function of the heart.
  • Determine the effect of food in the stomach on how much CK-4021586 is in the blood after a single dose.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence and severity of AEs

    To assess the safety and tolerability of CK-4021586 when administered orally as single or multiple doses to healthy participants

    Measured: Time Frame for SAD Cohorts: Day -1 - Day 7; Time Frame for MAD Cohorts: Day -1 - Day 14; Time Frame for Food Effect Cohorts: Days 1 to 7 (Treatment Periods 1 and 2)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Primary PK parameters of CK-4021586 including AUC

    To characterize the PK of CK-4021586 and CK-4022235 after single and multiple oral doses in healthy participants

    Measured: Time Frame for SAD Cohorts: Day -1 - Day 7; Time Frame for MAD Cohorts: Day -1 - Day 14; Time Frame for Food Effect Cohorts: Days 1 to 7 (Treatment Periods 1 and 2)

  2. Changes over time from baseline in echocardiographic parameters including, but not limited to, LVEF

    To characterize the PD effects of single and multiple oral doses of CK-4021586 in healthy participants

    Measured: Time Frame for SAD Cohorts: Day -1 - Day 7; Time Frame for MAD Cohorts: Day -1 - Day 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CK-4021586 in people with Healthy Participants, run by Cytokinetics 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 1 inclusion and 8 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 1 May 2025. 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?

Incidence and severity of AEs (time frame: Time Frame for SAD Cohorts: Day -1 - Day 7; Time Frame for MAD Cohorts: Day -1 - Day 14; Time Frame for Food Effect Cohorts: Days 1 to 7 (Treatment Periods 1 and 2)). 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 NCT05877053, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 May 2025.
