A First in Human Single Ascending Dose (SAD) Study of ATI-1013 in Healthy Smokers
What this study is about
This study is a first-in-human clinical trial of drug ATI-1013, in healthy adult cigarette smokers. The main questions it aims to answer are to learn about the safety of drug ATI-1013, how long drug ATI-1013 remains within the body, does drug ATI-1013 trigger an immune response, and the effects of drug ATI-1013 on nicotine levels within the body.
View original scientific description
This study is a first-in-human clinical trial of drug ATI-1013, in healthy adult cigarette smokers. The main questions it aims to answer are to learn about the safety of drug ATI-1013, how long drug ATI-1013 remains within the body, does drug ATI-1013 trigger an immune response, and the effects of drug ATI-1013 on nicotine levels within the body. The clinical trial will compare drug ATI-1013 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if drug ATI-1013 has comparable safety. Participants will have a Screening visit (Day -28 to -3) and will be admitted on Day -2. Each participant will receive one intravenous (IV) infusion of ATI-1013 or placebo (Day 1). Participants will remain in-clinic for at least 48 hours post-dose and return for follow-up visits on Days 7, 21, 42, 56, and 84, with telephone check-ins on Days 5, 14, 28, and 70. Participants will keep a diary of their cigarette use and smoking behaviors.

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.
