A Phase I Study of the Effects of APF530 Exposure, Granisetron and Moxifloxacin

February 10, 2026 updated by: Heron Therapeutics

A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Four-Period Crossover Definitive QT Study Of The Effects of APF530 Exposure, High-Dose IV Granisetron and Moxifloxacin on QTc Prolongation

This Phase I study will be performed in a double-blind, randomized, crossover design in healthy male and female subjects. The central ECG laboratory will be blinded to treatment. Every effort will be made to enroll equal numbers of males and females into the study.

Eligible subjects will participate in a screening phase (within 28 days of the dosing day), a treatment phase and a final visit, which will be conducted on discharge from the study. Study duration will be 32 days with a total of approximately 12 days of confinement. During the resting ECG periods, 12-lead digital ECGs will be extracted from continuous telemetry at selected time points to assess potential ECG effects. Blood samples for PK evaluation will be collected in conjunction with the ECG time points.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 50 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Healthy Male and Female Subjects

  • weigh at least 50 kg (110 pounds)
  • have a body mass index of 18-32 kg/m2 inclusive
  • capable of understanding and complying with the protocol
  • have signed the informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • PR > 240 ms, QRS > 110 ms or a history of prolongation of QT interval
  • a family history of Long QT Syndrome or cardiac disease
  • may not have used any medications or consumed any foods contraindicated in the protocol

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
QTc Prolongation
Time Frame: From baseline over 48 hours.
To evaluate the effect of APF530 given subcutaneously, in normal volunteers, on placebo subtracted change of QTcF
From baseline over 48 hours.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Plasma concentrations of granisetron
Time Frame: From baseline over 48 hours
To achieve a mean Cmax of granisetron and AUC exposure in normal volunteers equivalent to that achieved by APF530 given subcutaneously, in patients.
From baseline over 48 hours

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
July 1, 2011

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
