Safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator AZD7594, following inhalation in healthy Japanese volunteers.
Trial report in Drug design, development and therapy, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionAZD7594 is a non-steroidal, selective, glucocorticoid receptor modulator (SGRM), currently in development for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. This paper reports a randomized placebo-controlled dose escalation study in healthy Japanese male subjects.
methodsInhaled AZD7594 was administered as one single dose at day 1 (day 1-4), with subsequent multiple daily doses (day 5-16) via a multiple-dose dry powder inhaler for 12 days of once-daily treatment. At each dose level, subjects were randomized to AZD7594 (n=7) or placebo (n=2). The safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of AZD7594 were evaluated.
resultsInhaled AZD7594 was safe and well tolerated up to and including the highest dose 1600 µg tested. Plasma exposure suggested dose-proportional PK. The urinary excretion of AZD7594 was negligible (<0.02%). Dose-related effects were observed for 24 hrs plasma cortisol; however, significant cortisol suppression (25%) was only seen at the highest dose level following multiple doses. There were no or only marginal effects on other biomarkers tested (dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate [DHEA-S] and osteocalcin).
conclusionIn conclusion, the early clinical evaluation of inhaled AZD7594 suggests that this novel SGRM is well tolerated in the dose range investigated and also in a Japanese population. It shows dose-proportional plasma exposure, moderate accumulation and has limited impact on systemic markers of glucocorticoid activity.
