Evaluating the safety and pharmacokinetics of MBX 2109 in adults with different kidney functions

A Phase 1, Open-Label, Parallel-Group, Single Dose Adaptive Study to Evaluate the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of MBX 2109 in Adult Subjects With Normal and Impaired Renal Function

This study is testing how safe the drug MBX 2109 is and how it's processed in the body for adults with normal and different levels of kidney function.

Quick facts

• Phase: PHASE1
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 32 (estimated)
• Ages: 18 Years to 80 Years
• Sex: All
• Sponsor: MBX Biosciences (industry)
• Locations: 3 sites (Miami, Florida and 2 other locations)
• Trial ID: NCT06496217 on ClinicalTrials.gov

What this trial studies

This Phase 1, open-label study aims to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of MBX 2109 in adult participants with both normal and impaired renal function. The study will involve a parallel-group design where subjects will receive a single dose of the drug, allowing researchers to compare the effects across different renal function groups. Participants will be monitored for safety and how the drug is processed in the body, providing crucial data for future studies. The study is designed to adapt based on initial findings to optimize participant safety and data collection.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 to 80 with either normal renal function or varying degrees of renal impairment.

Not a fit: Patients with severe renal impairment or those not meeting the inclusion criteria may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved treatment options for patients with renal impairment.

How similar studies have performed: While this study focuses on a specific drug and population, similar pharmacokinetic studies have shown success in understanding drug safety in patients with renal impairment.
