Study summary
Test with apostrophe in condition field for mapping
copy final text PPLD
Primary Sjögren’s syndrome is a condition when the body’s immune system attacks glands
that produce fluids, such as the tear and saliva glands. This leads to dry eyes and a dry
mouth. These symptoms can be severe. Symptoms can be treated but there is an unmet need to treat the actual condition.
In this study, ASP5502 is being given to humans for the first time. The people taking part are healthy adults or adults with primary Sjögren’s syndrome.
The main aims of the study are to check the safety of ASP5502 and how people cope with
(tolerate) taking ASP5502 tablets.
This study will be in 3 parts.
In Part 1, healthy men and women will take tablets of ASP5502 or a placebo just once. In
this study, the placebo looks like the ASP5502 tablet but doesn’t have any medicine in it.
Different small groups of people will take a lower to a higher dose of ASP5502 or a placebo. This will happen one group after another. One small group will take tablets of ASP5502 or
placebo with and without food.

Frequently Asked Questions
While some clinical trials may focus on more advanced cancers, many trials are open to patients at various stages of their cancer. Each study has rules about who can take part. For example, only patients in a certain age group or those who have a certain type of tumor may be able to join.
Sometimes researchers want participants to keep taking their current treatments during a clinical trial. Other times, you may need to stop your current treatments for a while. If the investigational treatment doesn't work, you can usually go back to your original treatment plan.
In cancer clinical trials, a placebo is only used if there is no other treatment for that type of cancer. This helps compare an investigational treatment to the placebo. Placebos are rarely used in cancer trials because the best available treatment, called the “standard of care”, is usually given instead.
Your doctor may not know about all the opportunities for clinical trials that are available to you. Talk to your doctor or other medical provider about clinical trial information that you find. They can help you decide if a clinical trial is right for you. If you do not find any options on this website, we recommend you visit an online public registry website like clinicaltrials.gov to see a wide variety of available clinical trials.
