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 60 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

Male

Inclusion Criteria:

  2. Be considered healthy in the opinion of the PI or qualified designee and have no clinically significant abnormal laboratory values at screening
  3. Male
  4. Aged 18 to 60 years, inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent. Note: if the study is to be conducted at a clinical site located in Lincoln, Nebraska, the lower age limit will be 19 years of age

Placebo Comparator: Placebo control
Commercially obtained sterile, normal saline for injection will be used as the matching placebo. Placebo will be dosed in an identical manner to active study drug. The volume of placebo will be calculated according to body weight using active drug dose for volume calculation in order to maintain the study blind.
Other: Placebo
Placebo will be dosed in an identical manner to active study drug.

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
Dose limiting toxicity
Time Frame: Up to 31 days
The primary outcome for this study is Dose Limiting Toxicity, which is the composite of any SAE, any pancreatitis(as measured by amylase) or renal dysfunction (as measured by serum creatinine)
Up to 31 days

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.
