About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Investigator-Blinded, Stratified, Randomized, Parallel Group Study to Compare the Gastroprotective Effects of PA 325 Versus 81 mg Enteric Coated Aspirin

To compare the gastroprotective effects of a once-daily dose of PA 325 combination tablet

Read the detailed description

Primary: To compare the gastroprotective effects of a once-daily dose of PA 325 combination tablet combining 325 mg pH sensitive aspirin and 20 mg immediate release omeprazole versus a once-daily dose of 81 mg enteric coated (EC) aspirin utilizing Lanza scores from endoscopy findings in normal healthy volunteers.

Secondary: To evaluate the safety and gastrointestinal tolerability, including ulcerogenic potential, and the effect on gastric pH of PA 325.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary endpoint is the occurrence of gastric and/or duodenal bulb lesions meeting Grade 3 or Grade 4 Lanza (1988) scores for the stomach and duodenal bulb (combined).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Secondary endpoints include the incidence of gastric and/or duodenal ulcers, total number of gastric and/or duodenal erosions, gastric pH and any other GI tolerability issues.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing aspirin and omeprazole in people with Healthy, run by POZEN at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 14 inclusion and 22 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 Jan 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States, Canada. 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?

The primary endpoint is the occurrence of gastric and/or duodenal bulb lesions meeting Grade 3 or Grade 4 Lanza (1988) scores for the stomach and duodenal bulb (combined).. 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 12 Jan 2009.
