Study summary

This study aims to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of Ronkyla Plus, a combinational drug that forms a hydrogel at the injection site, promising a better experience of lipolysis injection for the treatment of superficial lipoma. The study consists of a Part I dose-escalation study to investigate the drug's maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for this indication and a Part II study for evaluating its relative bioavailability in comparison to an FDA-approved lipolysis injection, Kybella.

Read the detailed description

Part I is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, and sequential dose-escalation study. Eligible subjects will receive intralesional injections of Ronkyla Plus or placebo at a volume dependent on the size of their superficial lipoma, up to a maximum of 10 mL per treatment, at 28-day intervals for up to a maximum of 6 treatments. In the first treatment cycle, subjects will stay in hospital for 3 hours after treatment for evaluation of acute safety profile. Subjects will return to the hospital on Day 8 and Day 29 of each treatment cycle for safety profile evaluation.

Part II is an open-label, single-dose, 2-treatment, parallel study to evaluate the relative bioavailability of Ronkyla Plus injection in comparison with that of Kybella injection. Eligible, non-smoking males and females aged 18 to 65 with treatable superficial lipoma or submental fullness will be included in the study. Twenty (20) subjects for each target symptom, in a total of 40 subjects, are planned to be enrolled in the study to achieve at least 16 evaluable subjects in each treatment group. After screening, subjects will be assigned to Ronkyla Plus or Kybella treatment based on their symptoms and undergo a 16-day PK assessment.

For Ronkyla Plus injection, subject will receive a single intralesional treatment at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) as determined in Part I. For Kybella injection, subject will receive the maximum dose approved for a single treatment (100 mg) in the submental area.

In the PK assessment period, subjects will visit the hospital in the mornings of Day 3 (48.0 h), Day 5 (96.0 h), Day 8 (168.0 h), Day 11 (240.0 h), and Day 15 (336.0 h), and two consecutive 24-hr PK blood samplings from Day -2 evening to Day 2 morning (pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, 12.0, 16.0, 24.0 h post-dose on Day 1\~Day 2; same blood sampling time on Day -1\~Day 1 without dosing). Two weeks after the end of the 16-day PK assessment period, subjects of Ronkyla Plus cohort will be eligible for up to 5 additional treatments of Ronkyla Plus for complete clearance of their target superficial lipomas, whereas subjects of Kybella cohort will be eligible for up to 5 additional treatments of Ronkyla (10.56 mg/mL SDC injection approved in Taiwan for submental fullness treatment, pharmaceutical equivalent of Kybella) for improvement of their submental fullness.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(21)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Biopsy and archival tissue

A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.

Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.

BMI (body mass index)

Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.

What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Postmenopausal

Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

INR, PT and aPTT (clotting tests)

Blood tests of how long blood takes to clot. The INR is the prothrombin time (PT) put on a common scale; about 1 is usual for someone not taking a blood thinner.

Criteria often make an exception for people on a blood thinner such as warfarin, whose INR is raised on purpose.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Washout period

A planned gap after a treatment, so that its effects can lessen before the study treatment or a study assessment. Ask the study team and the doctor who prescribed it before changing any medicine.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

Hemoglobin (Hb)

The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
