What is being measured

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

  1. Time to 10%, 50%, 90% and Complete Gastric Empting of the Radioactive Markers Representing Sumatriptan, Naproxen and Eletriptan

    Scintigraphic images were analyzed in a time-lapse format and regions of interest were drawn to include the stomach and small intestine. Images were recorded in a supine position and a series of 3 to 60 consecutive anterior scintigraphic images, each 1 minute in duration, were recorded using a clinical grade gamma camera. After this initial continuous imaging sequence, additional images were recorded to coincide with pharmacokinetic (PK) blood sampling times as necessary to monitor the tablet disintegration and transit time through the intestines. Prior to ingesting the radiolabeled dosage forms, two external markers (2-3 microcuries of indium-111 or technetium-99m) were placed on each participant to facilitate consistent positioning underneath the gamma camera. The first marker was placed on the right side of the participant's chest (approximately at the fifth intercostal rib) and a second marker was placed on the hip bone (approximately the left anterior superior ileac spine).

    Measured: Day 1 of each treatment administration (For 30 days)

  2. Mean Area Under the Drug Concentration Time Curve (AUC) From Time of Dosing Through 2 Hour Post-dose [AUC (0-2)], Through 24 Hour [AUC (0-24)] and AUC From Time of Dosing Extrapolated to Infinity [AUC (0-inf)] for Sumatriptan and Naproxen

    Following TREXIMA administration, 6 mL blood sample was collected at pre-dose and then at 5, 10 , 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, and 75 minutes. Then at 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6 hour and at 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, 72 hour post-dose for each treatment administered. All available plasma supernatant was withdrawn from the precipitated blood fraction.

    Measured: Pre-dose and then at 5 minute intervals through 60 minutes, at 75 minutes, every 30 minutes from 90 minutes through 6 hours, and at 8, 10, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours post-dose for each treatment administered.

A Phase 3 study testing Combination Product (sumatriptan succinate / naproxen sodium) and RELPAX(eletriptan) 40mg Tablet in people with Migraine Disorders, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site 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 1 inclusion and 0 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 12 Feb 2018. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Feb 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Time to 10%, 50%, 90% and Complete Gastric Empting of the Radioactive Markers Representing Sumatriptan, Naproxen and Eletriptan (time frame: Day 1 of each treatment administration (For 30 days)). The study lists 10 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00385008, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 12 Feb 2018.
