What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assessment of Pharmacokinetics profile of exenatide measured by AUC and Cmax

    To evaluate the effect of exenatide on the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of a combination oral contraceptive when administered one hour prior or 30 minutes after the exenatide dose.

    Measured: Day 8 and Day 22 of each treatment period hours of sampling: Predose, 0.5, 1,1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6,8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Assessment of Pharmacokinetics profile of exenatide measured by AUC and Cmax

    To evaluate the effect of exenatide on the single-dose pharmacokinetics of the combination oral contraceptive when administered one hour prior or 30 minutes after the exenatide dose.

    Measured: Day 8 and Day 22 of each treatment period hours of sampling: Predose, 0.5, 1,1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6,8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48

  2. Safety and Tolerability assessment by Adverse events, clinical laboratory evaluations, vital signs, ECG blood glucose, body weight, physical examination and exenatide antibodies.

    Assessment of the safety and tolerability of concomitant administration of exenatide and the combination oral contraceptive by incidence of adverse events, Adverse events, clinical laboratory evaluations, vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), blood glucose, body weight, physical examination and exenatide antibodies.

    Measured: Baseline through Day 84

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel; exenatide in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by AstraZeneca at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assessment of Pharmacokinetics profile of exenatide measured by AUC and Cmax (time frame: Day 8 and Day 22 of each treatment period hours of sampling: Predose, 0.5, 1,1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6,8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00254800, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Aug 2015.
