Phase 1 Study Assessing the Safety and Tolerability of CTX-4430 in Cystic Fibrosis Patients

March 4, 2015 updated by: Celtaxsys, Inc.

A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Ascending Multiple-Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of CTX-4430 When Administered Orally to Cystic Fibrosis Patients for Fifteen Days

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of CTX-4430 when administered to cystic fibrosis (CF) patients once-daily (QD) for 15 days.This study will include two dose levels. For each dose level, blood samples will be collected for exploratory PK and PD assay validation. In addition, sputum will be collected for exploratory biomarker analysis. Following multiple dose administration, pulmonary function and exploratory lung clearance index (LCI) measurements will be taken.

Study Overview

Status

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.

Study Type

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 55 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Adult male or female, 18 to 55 years of age (inclusive) at the time of screening.
  2. Confirmed diagnosis of CF based on the following: positive sweat chloride or sodium value ≥ 60 mEq/L, and/or genotype with two identifiable mutations consistent with CF, accompanied by one or more clinical features consistent with the CF phenotype or a diagnosis of CF made by a specialist in this condition.
  3. In the judgment of the Principal Investigator (PI), the patient is medically stable with no change in symptoms, medication, or with clinical laboratory results that in PI opinion are compatible with the diagnosis of either CF or a complication thereof and are judged acceptable for inclusion.
  4. Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 17.0 (kg/m2).
  5. Non-tobacco/nicotine-containing product user for a minimum of 6 months prior to the first study drug administration.
  6. Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV1) of >50% and <90% of predicted at screening.
  7. Must agree to use adequate method of contraception.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient has displayed any significant clinical/laboratory/radiological/spirometric sign of unstable or unexpectedly deteriorating respiratory disease within 30 days prior to the first study drug administration.
  2. History or presence of clinically significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, dermatologic, neurological, or psychiatric disease that depart from the patient's usual baseline level of health as a patient with CF.
  3. Has a history of lung transplantation.
  4. History or presence of alcoholism or drug abuse within 2 years prior to the first study drug administration.
  5. Personal or family history of prolonged QT syndrome; or a QTc interval >430 msec (males) or >450 msec (females) using Bazett's formula (QTcB) or deemed clinically significant by the PI.
  6. Sitting blood pressure is less than 90/40 mmHg or greater than 140/90 mmHg, unless deemed clinically insignificant by the PI.
  7. Pulse is higher than 100 b.p.m or lower than 50 b.p.m. unless deemed clinically insignificant by the PI.
  8. Failure to satisfy the PI of fitness to participate for any other reason.
  9. In the judgment of the PI, clinically significant hemoptysis (>30 cc per episode) within the last 180 days.
