ABBV-101 for Healthy Adults
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests how a new oral medication, ABBV-101, behaves in the body with and without food. It aims to understand the impact of a high-fat meal on the medication's absorption and movement through the body. Two groups will alternate between taking the drug on an empty stomach and after eating. Healthy adults with a BMI between 18.0 and 32.0 are suitable candidates. As a Phase 1 trial, participants will be among the first to help researchers understand how this new treatment works in people.
Do I have to stop taking my current medications for the trial?
The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.
Is there any evidence suggesting that ABBV-101 is likely to be safe for humans?
Research has shown that ABBV-101 is undergoing safety testing in various trials. In studies involving individuals with certain blood cancers, some negative health effects have been observed, though these studies primarily involve those with serious health issues.
This trial examines how ABBV-101 works in healthy adults. As a Phase 1 trial, its main goal is to assess the drug's safety and how the body processes it. Phase 1 trials are early tests, so detailed safety information for healthy individuals might not yet be fully available. However, testing in healthy participants suggests a reasonable expectation of safety, as these trials typically start with low doses and gradually increase to assess tolerance.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial?
Researchers are excited about ABBV-101 because it offers a novel approach by examining the effects of fasting versus non-fasting conditions on the drug's efficacy. Unlike existing treatments that might not consider the timing of administration relative to meals, ABBV-101 could potentially optimize therapeutic outcomes based on this variable. This approach could lead to more personalized and effective treatment plans, enhancing the overall patient experience.
What evidence suggests that ABBV-101 is effective for healthy adults?
Researchers are investigating ABBV-101 to determine its potential in treating B-cell malignancies, which are cancers affecting a type of white blood cell. Early studies have examined the drug's safety and pharmacokinetics, the process by which it moves through the body. These initial studies also explore whether ABBV-101 can reduce disease activity in patients whose cancer has returned or not responded to treatment. While detailed efficacy results are still being collected, the primary goal is to identify the optimal dose and understand the drug's behavior in the body. This ongoing research is crucial to assess whether ABBV-101 can effectively aid those with these challenging conditions.23678
