A Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics (PK) and Pharmacodynamics (PD) of TAK-954 in Healthy Adult Participants

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy Volunteers
Interventions
Drug: TAK-954 Placebo
Registration Number
NCT03870555
Lead Sponsor
Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of single ascending intravenous doses of TAK-954.

Detailed Description

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-954. This study will assess the safety, tolerability, PK and PD of single ascending TAK-954 higher intravenous doses than those previously studied.

The study will enroll approximately 6 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned (By chance, like flipping a coin) to one of the three treatment sequences-which will remain undisclosed to the participant and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need).

In each treatment sequence, each participant will receive 2 doses of active drug out of 3 dose levels (TAK-954 0.5 mg, TAK-954 1 mg, or TAK-954 2 mg) and 1 dose of Placebo. Dose escalation will be based on the available safety/tolerability data from the previous period.

This single center trial will be conducted in the United States. The overall time to participate in this study is approximately 73 days. Participants will make a final visit on Day 16 after receiving their last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With First Stool of TAK-954 Within 36 Hours Post-dose on Day 2Day 2 dosing and at multiple time points (up to 36 hours) post-dose
Mean Number of Stools of TAK-954 Within 36 Hours Post-dose on Day 2Day 2 dosing and at multiple time points (up to 36 hours) post-dose
Instances of Stool Type of TAK-954 Based on Bristol Stool Form ScaleDay 2 dosing and at multiple time points (up to 36 hours) post-dose

Number of occurrences for each stool type was reported based on their type assessed from Bristol Stool form scale. The Bristol Stool Form Scale was used to assess the stool shape using a 7-point scale. Where, Type 1 = separate hard lumps, like nuts (hard to pass), Type 2 = sausage-shaped but lumpy, Type 3 = like a sausage but with cracks on the surface, Type 4 = like a sausage or snake, smooth and soft, Type 5 = soft blobs with clear-cut edges (passed easily), Type 6 = fluffy pieces with ragged edges, a mushy stool, Type 7 = watery, no solid pieces; entirely liquid. A score of 1 or 2 indicates constipation and a score of 6 or 7 indicates diarrhea.
