Trial OverviewThe study involves giving participants either AZD8965 or a placebo (a substance with no active drug). They'll receive varying doses to see how well they tolerate it and how their bodies handle the drug over time.

Adverse drug reactions: definitions, diagnosis, and management. [2022]We define an adverse drug reaction as "an appreciably harmful or unpleasant reaction, resulting from an intervention related to the use of a medicinal product, which predicts hazard from future administration and warrants prevention or specific treatment, or alteration of the dosage regimen, or withdrawal of the product." Such reactions are currently reported by use of WHO's Adverse Reaction Terminology, which will eventually become a subset of the International Classification of Diseases. Adverse drug reactions are classified into six types (with mnemonics): dose-related (Augmented), non-dose-related (Bizarre), dose-related and time-related (Chronic), time-related (Delayed), withdrawal (End of use), and failure of therapy (Failure). Timing, the pattern of illness, the results of investigations, and rechallenge can help attribute causality to a suspected adverse drug reaction. Management includes withdrawal of the drug if possible and specific treatment of its effects. Suspected adverse drug reactions should be reported. Surveillance methods can detect reactions and prove associations.

Adverse non-drug-related complaints by healthy volunteers in Phase I studies compared to the healthy general population. [2019]Some complaints that are reported as adverse drug reactions by healthy subjects during participation in Phase I studies are common complaints in healthy individuals from the normal population. The objective of this study was to compare the incidence of complaints in a group of 192 healthy volunteers in Phase I studies with a control group of 112 healthy subjects who matched the Phase I group participants in terms of demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, and to investigate the relationship between some psychological factors and the incidence of complaints.
Frequent Adverse Drug Reactions, and Medication Groups under Suspicion. [2023]The adverse drug reaction database of the German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (Bundesinstitut für Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte, BfArM) contains reports of suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) that are spon- taneously submitted by physicians, pharmacists, or patients. The aim of the present study was a descriptive analysis of all of these spontaneous reports.
Detection of populations at risk and problem drugs during drug development and in pharmacotherapy. [2019]Rational drug therapy requires knowledge about the ratio of risk (adverse drug reaction) to benefit (therapeutic efficacy) for all drugs to be used in humans. However, with newly marketed drugs, the risk/benefit ratio is usually not sufficiently known. Safety is often less well defined than efficacy. This is the result of the present mode of drug development. Premarketing studies are conducted in comparatively small, homogenous populations over relatively short time intervals and under standardized conditions. Only after marketing are larger, more diversified populations exposed over prolonged times, often under uncontrolled conditions. Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are the result of either overdosage, or allergic or idiosyncratic reactions. They can be life-threatening or mild. Some of the ADRs are common (greater than 1:10); others are very rare (less than 1:1000). The overall rate of ADR occurrence in ambulatory and hospitalized patients is high enough to have significant socioeconomic consequences. Some of the risk populations can be suspected a priori: elderly, multimorbid patients and patients with compromised drug elimination who may be overdosed if the regimens are not appropriately modified. Some problem drugs may be recognized if they display one or more of the following characteristics: narrow therapeutic index, steep dose-effect relationship, nonlinear kinetics, variable bioavailability, and pharmacogenetically determined kinetics. Other individuals at risk, however, may not be readily identifiable. They develop allergic and idiosyncratic reactions after drug exposure without exhibiting easily recognizable predisposing factors. In order to determine the number of individuals so affected, and the associated drugs as quickly as possible during the developmental process, specific ADR surveillance measures are taken.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
