Trial summary

Spacers are used by people with respiratory diseases who have problems using MDIs (metered dose inhalers). This study used fluticasone propionate/salmeterol to look at the pharmacokinetic profiles produced by different spacers in their washed and un-washed states. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Open Label, Five-way Crossover Study to Assess the Systemic Exposure of Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol From SERETIDE/ADVAIR 250HFA MDI Alone and With AeroChamber-Max Spacer and VOLUMATIC Both in Their Washed and Unwashed States in Adult Subjects With Mild or Intermittent Asthma

Spacers are used by people with respiratory diseases who have problems using MDIs (metered dose inhalers). This study used fluticasone propionate/salmeterol to look at the pharmacokinetic profiles produced by different spacers in their washed and un-washed states.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • fluticasone propionate/salmeterolDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. The pharmacokinetic profile of fluticasone propionate (in particular the area under the curve to time t and the maximum concentration)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The pharmacokinetic profile of salmeterol and the time to maximum concentration of fluticasone propionate

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing fluticasone propionate/salmeterol in people with Asthma, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in New Zealand.

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 2 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 17 Oct 2016. 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 New Zealand. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

The pharmacokinetic profile of fluticasone propionate (in particular the area under the curve to time t and the maximum concentration). 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 NCT00369993, 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 17 Oct 2016.
