August 24, 2017 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple Dose, Parallel Study to Investigate the Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamic Effects, Safety and Tolerability of Repeated Dosing of RO5459072 in Volunteers With Celiac Disease

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two treatment, parallel group study to investigate the effects of RO5459072, a cathepsin S inhibitor, on the immune response to a gluten challenge in volunteers with celiac disease. Volunteers with previously diagnosed celiac disease will be randomized to receive either 100 milligrams (mg) RO5459072 or placebo twice daily with food for 28 days (Days 1 to 28).

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

14 years to 56 years (Adult)

  • Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) serotype DQ 2.5 and HLA-DQ 8 haplotypes
  • Maintaining a gluten-free diet for at least one year. Compliance will be assessed by serology, compatible responses to a self-reported assessment of gluten-free diet adherence and the absence of typical celiac disease symptoms
