About this study

Official title: A 6-Month, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase 2a Study of the Effects of HU6 on Energy Metabolism, Muscle and Liver Substrate Metabolism, and Mitochondrial Function in Subjects Who Are Overweight or Obese With Type 2 Diabetes

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel group study of HU6 and placebo in subjects who are overweight or obese with T2D.

The study will be conducted in 4 stages.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel group study of HU6 and placebo in subjects who are overweight or obese with T2D.

The study will be conducted in 4 stages (Figure 1).

  • Stage 1: (screening) is conducted over a 29-day window (Day -48 to Day -20). Subjects who meet all of the eligibility criteria may proceed Stages 2 to 4 of the study.
  • Stage 2 (baseline [pre-randomization]) is conducted over a 19-day period prior to randomization and includes a 13-day run-in and the first 6-day inpatient assessment period. At the end of Stage 2, subjects will be randomized 1:1 to HU6 or placebo.
  • Stage 3 (double-blind dosing) is conducted after randomization. Day 1 is the first dose of double-blind study drug, and dosing continues over an approximate 26-week period. During this time, there will be study visits for safety, PK, and PD. Stage 3 of the study concludes with a 3-day run-in followed by the second 6-day inpatient assessment period.
  • Stage 4 (washout) is conducted after dosing has ended and includes an approximate 4-week washout duration including a 3-day run-in followed by the third inpatient assessment period (3-day duration). The last day of the 3-day inpatient stay is the end-of-study. (Note that there will be a separate early termination visit for any subject who prematurely discontinues from the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing HU6 in people with Diabete Type 2 and Obesity, run by Rivus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 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 5 inclusion and 3 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2024. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Sleeping Metabolic Rate (SMR) change from Baseline to 6 Months (26 weeks) (time frame: 26 weeks). 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 9 Jan 2024.
