Study in HCV-Infected Patients to Determine the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Antiviral Activity of JNJ-47910382

May 9, 2014 updated by: Janssen R&D Ireland

A Phase Ib, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial in Caucasian Genotype 1 Chronic HCV-Infected Subjects to Determine the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Antiviral Activity of Repeated Doses of JNJ-47910382 Given in Different Doses and Dose Regimens

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the medication) and antiviral activity of JNJ-47910382 when administered in different dosing regimens in Caucasian genotype-1 chronic HCV-infected patients.

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.

Detailed Description

This is a Phase Ib, double-blind (neither physician nor patient knows the treatment that the patient receives), randomized (the study drug is assigned by chance), placebo-controlled study in treatment-naïve (someone who has never used drugs for HCV infection), Caucasian genotype 1 chronic HCV-infected patients. The study consists of a screening period, a 9-day treatment period (with 5 days of actual medication intake) and a 4-week follow-up period. The patients will be divided over 4 panels of 10 patients each that will be initiated sequentially. In each panel patients will receive JNJ-47910382 or placebo during 5 consecutive days. JNJ-47910382 or placebo will be administered once daily or twice daily. Within each panel, 5 patients of genotype-1a and 5 patients of genotype-1b will be enrolled. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive active treatment or placebo in such a way that 4 patients of each genotype receive active treatment and 1 subject of each genotype receives placebo. The pharmacokinetic profile of JNJ-47910382 will be assessed in each panel. HCV RNA kinetics (HCV RNA level) and HCV resistance will be studied and biomarkers at the messenger RNA (mRNA), protein and cell level will be explored. The entire study duration for each participant will be approximately four weeks.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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 70 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers
