A Study of Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism and Excretion (ADME) of [14C]AZD4144

April 7, 2026 updated by: AstraZeneca

An Open-Label, Two-Cohort Study of Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion (ADME) of [14C]AZD4144 Following a Single Oral and IV Dose to Healthy Male Participants

This study in healthy volunteers aims to explore blood levels and side effects of the test medicine, and look at how it is broken down when injected into a vein or given as a liquid by mouth. The test medicine will be radiolabeled with a small amount of carbon-14 so it can be tracked in the body.

This study will take place at one site in Nottingham, United Kingdom, and will enroll 2 groups of 8 healthy men aged 30-65 years.

Detailed Description

This study in healthy volunteers aims to explore blood levels and side effects of the test medicine, and look at how it is broken down when injected into a vein or given as a liquid by mouth. The test medicine will be radiolabelled with a small amount of carbon-14 so it can be tracked in the body.

This study will take place at one site in Nottingham, United Kingdom.

It is planned to enroll 2 groups of 8 healthy men aged 30-65 years.

Each group will take part in 1 treatment period and receive a single dose of radiolabelled test medicine, either by injection into a vein or as a liquid by mouth. They'll stay in the clinic for up to 10 nights, attend 2 outpatient visits, and take up to 7 weeks to finish the study.

Blood and urine samples will be collected to do safety tests. Blood, urine and faecal samples will be collected to measure the amount of test medicine and its breakdown products.

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)

Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?

YES

IPD Plan Description

Qualified researchers can request access to anonymized individual participant-level data from AstraZeneca group of companies sponsored clinical trials via the request portal Vivli.org. All requests will be evaluated as per the AZ disclosure commitment: https://astrazenecagrouptrials.pharmacm.com/ST/Submission/Disclosure.

"Yes", indicates that AZ are accepting requests for IPD, but this does not mean all requests will be approved.

IPD Sharing Time Frame

AstraZeneca will meet or exceed data availability as per the commitments made to the EFPIA/PhRMA Data Sharing Principles. For details of our timelines, please rerefer to our disclosure commitment at https://astrazenecagrouptrials.pharmacm.com/ST/Submission/Disclosure.

IPD Sharing Access Criteria

When a request has been approved AstraZeneca will provide access to the anonymized individual patient-level data via secure research environment Vivli.org.

Signed Data Usage Agreement (non-negotiable contract for data accessors) must be in place before accessing requested information.
