AZD0292 for Healthy Participants
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial explores a new drug, AZD0292, and its effects at different doses. The main goal is to determine its safety and tolerability in healthy participants and to understand how the body processes it. Participants may receive one of three doses of AZD0292 or a placebo, which contains no active drug. Those who are generally healthy, not currently on most medications, and haven't smoked recently might be suitable for this study.
As a Phase 1 trial, participants will be among the first to receive this new treatment, aiding researchers in understanding its effects in people.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
Yes, you will need to stop taking most medications at least 7 days before the study starts, except for contraceptives, hormone replacement therapy, and certain over-the-counter medications like acetaminophen and antihistamines. Vitamins and supplements that you've been taking for at least 30 days are allowed.
Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?
Research has shown that AZD0292 has been tested in various studies to assess its safety in humans. In one study involving healthy Japanese adults, researchers administered AZD0292 in gradually increasing amounts through an IV (a needle in the vein). This study evaluated the drug's tolerability and safety.
Research also explores the use of AZD0292 in patients with bronchiectasis, a lung condition. These studies examine its long-term safety and effectiveness. Although detailed results are not provided here, testing AZD0292 in healthy individuals suggests it remains in the early stages of research, with full safety details still being gathered.
In these early studies, researchers check for side effects and how the body processes the drug. AZD0292 continues to be closely monitored to ensure its safety for use.12345Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising?
Researchers are excited about AZD0292 because it represents a new approach with its unique mechanism of action as an intravenous (IV) infusion, which differs from many current treatments that may be oral or have different delivery methods. This treatment is being explored at multiple doses, allowing researchers to understand its optimal efficacy and safety, which is crucial for personalized medicine. By offering a potentially faster and more targeted way to address the condition, AZD0292 could pave the way for more effective management options.
What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective?
Research is investigating AZD0292 as a potential treatment to prevent flare-ups in individuals with bronchiectasis, a lung condition. This treatment is a specialized protein targeting specific parts of the immune system. Early studies have tested AZD0292 in healthy individuals to assess its safety and how the body processes it. Although detailed information on its effectiveness in patients is limited, its mechanism suggests it might help control lung inflammation. Further studies are necessary to confirm its benefits for patients.12367
