- The study compound is being developed for the treatment of diseases in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues. These are called autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Such diseases often cause inflammation, for example in the skin or joints. Examples include psoriasis (a skin condition with red, scaly patches) and psoriatic arthritis (an inflammatory disease-causing pain and swelling in the joints).
- In this clinical trial, we will investigate how well different formulations of the study compound are absorbed by the body, and how food affects this, after taking a single dose.
- The study consists of two parts: Part 1 and Part 2. You will participate in both parts.
- The study compound will be administered as a tablet (by mouth). You will receive the study compound a total of four times in four different study periods. The study compound has been administered to people before.
- During part 2 you will receive a high-fat high-calorie breakfast before you receive the study compound. The high-fat high-calorie breakfast has a standard composition, which you must start exactly on time and finish within 30 minutes. The entire breakfast must be consumed. The high-fat high-calorie breakfast is a large breakfast, which includes 2 fried eggs, fried potatoes and bacon or cheese. It might be difficult for light eaters to consume the entire breakfast.
- During each stay period, one COVID test will be taken upon arrival.
- It may be decided that an additional group will be added who only need to complete the last period (part 2).
The compound has already been tested in healthy individuals. In these clinical trials, the following potential side-effects were observed: infections, allergic reactions, suicidal thoughts or behavior, decreased blood pressure, intestinal inflammation (for example: diarrhea, abdominal pain, cramping or bloating), headache or dizziness. You may also experience other, yet unknown, side effects. Prior to the medical screening, you will receive written information about the trial, which also describes the possible side effects. This information will also be discussed with you at the start of the medical screening. You can then ask questions to the screening physician or nurse. Once everything is clear to you, you can decide to give written consent to participate in the trial. The medical screening will only take place after you have given written consent to participate in the trial. We want to emphasize that even after giving written consent, participation in any clinical trial is voluntary. You can decide at any time not to participate or to stop the medical screening or the trial. You do not need to provide a reason for why you no longer wish to participate.
