About this study

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-906 maleate. TAK-906 maleate is being tested to treat people who have DG or IG. This study will assess the safety, tolerability, PK/PD and food effect of TAK-906 and will determine the effect of TAK-906 on gastric emptying (GE).

The study enrolled a total of 51 participants. This study will be conducted in two parts: Part 1 and Part 2. Part 1 will consist of 48 participants enrolled in 3 active treatment groups and 1 placebo group. Participants in Part 1 will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to one of the 3 active treatment groups or 1 placebo group-which will remain undisclosed to the participant and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need):

  • TAK 906 maleate 5 mg
  • TAK 906 maleate 25 mg
  • TAK 906 maleate 100 mg
  • Placebo

All participants who will complete Part 1 of the study will be eligible for enrollment in Part 2. Part 2 consisted of 21 participants who completed Part 1 and were assigned to the 2 open-label treatment groups as follow:

  • TAK-906 maleate 25 mg Fed + TAK-906 maleate 25 mg Fasted: crossover design, with a minimum 7-day washout in doses of each period.
  • Metoclopramide 10 mg

This multi-center trial will be conducted the United States. The overall time to participate in this study is approximately 8 weeks. Participants will make a final visit to the clinic 10-14 days after receiving their last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

Inclusion criteria

In order to be eligible for participation in this trial, the participant must:

  • Has a documented diagnosis of diabetes mellitus gastroparesis (DG) or idiopathic gastroparesis (IG).
  • Has a body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to (>=) 18 and less than or equal to (<=) 40 kilogram per square meter (kg/m^2) at the Screening Visit.
  • Be a non-smoker who has not used tobacco or nicotine-containing products (example, nicotine patch) for at least 6 months prior to trial drug administration of the initial dose of trial drug/invasive procedure.
  • Has symptoms for gastroparesis (GP) (that is, chronic postprandial fullness, abdominal pain, postprandial nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite and/or early satiety) the past 3 months.
  • Has documented slow gastric emptying (GE), with delayed GE by 13C-Spirulina gastric emptying breath test (GEBT) at Screening defined as >=80th percentile. Note: If a participant has had a documented scintigraphy or GEBT within the last 12 months that confirms the diagnosis of delayed GE, a screening GEBT would not be required.
  • Has nausea subscale (of American Neurogastroenterology and Motility Society Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index-Daily Diary [ANMS-GCSI-DD]) symptom score >=2 at least 3 of 7 days during Screening.
  • Has haemoglobin A1c (HBA1c) less than (<) 10 percent (%) (for diabetes mellitus only).

Exclusion criteria

The participant must be excluded from participating in the trial if the participant:

  • Has acute severe gastroenteritis and pronounced dehydration in the past 48 hours prior to Screening, gastric pacemaker, chronic parenteral feeding or persistent severe vomiting.
  • Has a known disturbance of small intestinal absorption, exocrine pancreatic function, liver metabolism, and pulmonary function.
  • Has a history of anorexia nervosa or bulimia.
  • Previous history of bezoars (the presence of retained liquid, bile, or small amounts of poorly organized food residue is permitted).
  • Difficulty swallowing solid food or pills.
  • Prior surgery involving the luminal gastrointestinal (GI) tract (cholecystectomy, appendectomy, and hysterectomy are permitted if performed greater than (>) 3 months prior to SmartPill test).
  • Any abdominal or pelvic surgery within the past 3 months.
  • Known or history of inflammatory bowel disease.
  • Has active diverticulitis, diverticular stricture, and other intestinal strictures.
  • Had major surgery, donated or lost 1 unit of blood (approximately 500 milliliter [mL]) within 4 weeks prior to the pretrial (screening) visit milligram per deciliter (mg/dL) (14.99 millimole per liter [mmol/L]) during any visit up to and including the randomization visit (Period 1 Day 1 predose). Note: If the participant meets this exclusion criterion and the investigator believes that the value is not consistent with the participant's current self-monitoring blood glucose values, the participant should not be excluded at this time. The visit can be repeated within 5 to 7 days.
  • Has had diabetic ketoacidosis (within the prior 4 weeks).

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants Who Experienced At Least One or More Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Time frame: From Baseline to 14 days after the last dose of study drug (Up to approximately 39 days)

    An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (e.g., a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug. A SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any following reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; or congenital anomaly; or a medically important event.

  2. Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Laboratory Parameters Values

    Time frame: From Baseline to 14 days after the last dose of study drug in Part 1 (Up to approximately 23 days)

    Clinical Laboratory parameters included tests for chemistry, hematology and urinalysis. Markedly abnormal values during treatment period were categorized as:alanine aminotransferase (ALT)>3.0 U/L*upper limit of normal(ULN),albumin<25 g/L*lower limit of normal(LLN),alkaline phosphatase >3.0 U/L*ULN,aspartate aminotransferase >3.0 U/L*ULN,bilirubin >2 umol/L*ULN,blood urea nitrogen(BUN) >10.7 mmol/L,calcium <1.75 mmol/L, >2.88 mmol/L,chloride <75 mmol/L, >126 mmol/L,creatinine >177umol/L,gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) >3 U/L*ULN,glucose <2.8 mmol/L, >19.4 mmol/L,phosphate <0.52 mmol/L, >2.10 mmol/L,potassium<3 mmol/L, >6 mmol/L,sodium <130 mmol/L, >150 mmol/L,hematocrit (%) <0.8*LLN, >1.2*ULN,hemoglobin <0.8 g/L*LLN, >1.2 g/L*ULN,leukocytes <0.5 (10^9/L)*LLN, >1.5 (10^9/L)*ULN,erythrocytes<0.8 (10^12/L)*LLN, >1.2(10^12/L)*ULN,platelets <75(10^9/L), >600(10^9/L). Participants with at least 1 markedly abnormal laboratory parameter value is reported.

  3. Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Vital Signs

    Time frame: From Baseline to 14 days after the last dose of study drug (Up to approximately 39 days)

    Vital signs included body temperature, diastolic and systolic blood pressure (mmHg), and heart rate (beats per minute [bpm]). Heart rate<50 bpm and systolic blood pressure <85 mmHg were considered markedly abnormal.

  4. Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Electrocardiogram (ECG) Values

    Time frame: From Baseline to 14 days after the last dose of study drug (Up to approximately 39 days)

    The 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) values outside the range Heart Rate <50 (beats/min), PR Interval ≤120 (msec), PR Interval ≥200 (msec), QRS Duration ≥120 (msec), QT Interval ≥460 (msec) were considered markedly abnormal.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Serum Prolactin Concentration on Day 1 at Tmax, Time of First Occurrence of Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) for TAK-906 Maleate for Part 1

    Time frame: Day 1 predose (Baseline), 1 hour and at multiple timepoints (Up to 8 hours) postdose

    Change in serum prolactin on Day 1 at the Tmax, time of first occurrence of maximum serum concentration (Cmax) relative to Baseline was calculated as a ratio of maximum serum prolactin concentration on Day 1 to serum prolactin concentration at Baseline.

  2. Change From Baseline in Gastric Emptying Breath Test (GEBT) Gastric Half-emptying Time as Measured by the 13C Spirulina GEBT Following Multiple Dose Administration of TAK-906 Maleate on Day 7 for Part 1

    Time frame: Baseline and Day 7

    The GEBT is a nonradioactive, noninvasive, orally administered test for measuring the rate of solid phase gastric emptying (GE) in adults. The GEBT measures how fast solid food moves from the stomach to the small intestine during the digestive process and aids in the diagnosis of delayed stomach emptying (GP). GE half-emptying time is the time in minutes (min) for half of the ingested solids to leave the stomach. This value was measured by the 13C spirulina GEBT.

  3. Change From Baseline in Gastric Emptying Breath Test (GEBT) Gastric Half-emptying Time Following Single Dose Administration of TAK-906 Maleate as Measured by the 13C Spirulina GEBT on Day 1

    Time frame: Baseline and Day 1 of Part 1

    The GEBT is a nonradioactive, noninvasive, orally administered test for measuring the rate of solid phase gastric emptying (GE) in adults. The GEBT measures how fast solid food moves from the stomach to the small intestine during the digestive process and aids in the diagnosis of delayed stomach emptying (GP). GE half-emptying time is the time in minutes (min) for half of the ingested solids to leave the stomach. This value was measured by the 13C spirulina GEBT.

  4. Percent Change From Baseline in Gastric Emptying (GE) Time as Measured by the SmartPill on Day 7 for Part 1

    Time frame: Baseline and Day 7

    SmartPill is an ingestible capsule that measures pressure, potential of hydrogen (pH) and temperature as it travels through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract to assess GE and GI motility. SmartPill eliminates radiation exposure and is the only motility test that provides a complete transit profile of the GI tract.

  5. AUCτ: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From 0 to Time (T) Over the Dosing Interval for TAK-906 in Part 1

    Time frame: Part 1: Day 1 predose and at multiple timepoints, (Up to 8 hours) postdose and Day 7 predose and at multiple timepoints (Up to 48 hours) postdose

  6. Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration for TAK 906 in Part 1

    Time frame: Part 1: Day 1 predose and at multiple timepoints, (Up to 8 hours) postdose and Day 7 predose and at multiple timepoints (Up to 48 hours) postdose

  7. Ctrough: Observed Concentration at the End of a Dosing Interval for TAK-906 in Part 1

    Time frame: Part 1: Predose on Days 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9

  8. Tmax: Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for TAK-906 in Part 1
