A Study to Investigate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of AZD4248 in Healthy Participants and Participants With Chronic Kidney Disease and Type 2 Diabetes and to Assess Home Measurements of Creatinine in a Non Interventional Cohort

What this study is about

This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, how the drug moves through the body (PK), and how the drug affects the body (PD) of single ascending doses (SAD) and multiple ascending doses (MAD) of AZD4248 administered as an taken by mouth solution and given through a vein (IV) (IV) infusion.

View original scientific description

This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single ascending doses (SAD) and multiple ascending doses (MAD) of AZD4248 administered as an oral solution and intravenous (IV) infusion. Additionally, the study investigates the non-interventional feasibility of home measurement of serum creatinine in participants with diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

DRUG

AZD4248

AZD4248 will be administered via IV infusion.

Primary outcome measures

Parts A, B, and C: Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

Time frame: From Day 1 to Follow Up visit (Part A: up to 12 days; Part B and C: up to 19 days)

To assess the safety and tolerability of AZD4248 following single oral ascending doses or single IV administration to healthy participants and multiple oral ascending doses to healthy participants and participants with CKD and T2D (DKD).

Part D: Intra- and inter-participant variability of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) derived from home self-testing device measurements

Time frame: Day 1 to Day 169

To assess intra- and inter-participant variability of twice weekly home-based serum creatinine measurements.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
