Trial summary

Very often patients receive medication before a diagnostic procedure, like a colonoscopy, to help them relax and stay calm during the procedure. This is called procedural or minimal-to-moderate sedation. One product used for sedation is called propofol. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Dose-Controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of AQUAVAN® (Fospropofol Disodium) Injection for Minimal to Moderate Sedation in Patients Undergoing Colonoscopy

Very often patients receive medication before a diagnostic procedure, like a colonoscopy, to help them relax and stay calm during the procedure. This is called procedural or minimal-to-moderate sedation. One product used for sedation is called propofol. AQUAVAN (fospropofol disodium) is made as a water soluble form of propofol allowing for rapid sedation during the entire procedure. This study is designed to test AQUAVAN for sedation during colonoscopy procedures.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, dose-controlled study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a moderate dose of AQUAVAN compared to a subtherapeutic dose of AQUAVAN,both following pretreatment with an analgesic fentanyl, in patients who are undergoing elective colonoscopy. A group of patients will receive midazolam as a reference therapy.

Following completion of pre-procedure assessments, patients will be randomly assigned to 1 of 3 treatment groups at a 2:3:1 (AQUAVAN initial dose 1 [subtherapeutic dose]:AQUAVAN initial dose 2 [moderate dose]: initial Midazolam Reference Dose) allocation ratio on the day of the scheduled procedure.

A person skilled in airway management and authorized by the facility in which the colonoscopy is performed (such as a respiratory therapist, a study nurse, or a clinician) must be immediately available during the conduct of the study. All patients will be placed on supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula (4 L/min), and an ECG monitor, pulse oximeter, and blood pressure monitor will be attached prior to administration of study medication. All patients will receive an injection of analgesic pretreatment followed by the administration of study medication. This protocol recognized 2 distinct phases of sedation: Sedation Initiation and Sedation Maintenance. Assessments will be made to evaluate the patients for levels of sedation, clinical benefit of sedation, and adverse events. Blood samples will be collected for PK analysis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing AQUAVAN® (fospropofol disodium) Injection and Midazolam HCI in people with Conscious Sedation, run by Eisai Inc. at 20 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 7 Nov 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in United States. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Sedation Success - 3 consecutive modified OAA/S scores of ≤4 after administration of sedative medication AND completing the procedure without requiring the use of alternative sedative medication AND without requiring manual or mechanical ventilation. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 7 Nov 2008.
