About this study

Official title: Phase I, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Ascending, Single-Dose, Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic Study of SRX251 Capsules in Healthy Female Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of SRX251 when given orally. The amount of SRX251 in the blood will also be measured. Healthy women, ages 18-50 years who have been surgically sterilized by tubal ligation, will be enrolled in this study.

Read the detailed description

Vasopressin appears to be a key mediating factor in menstrual pain. This position stems from findings that the hormone, arginine vasopressin (AVP), causes constriction of uterine blood vessels which in turn produces congestion of the uterus resulting in dysmenorrhea. Prior to menses, blood vessels in the uterine wall become engorged with blood. Elevated concentrations of vasopressin acting through V1a receptors cause constriction of both uterine and vascular smooth muscle, contributing to the discomfort and pain of primary dysmenorrhea. Consequently, blockade of these receptors with a selective V1a receptor antagonist would be expected to provide therapeutic benefits to women with primary dysmenorrhea.

SRX251 is a new chemical entity with potent V1a receptor antagonist properties, and an acceptable safety profile as demonstrated in preclinical studies. This study is intended to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic profile of a single oral dose of SRX251 in healthy human female volunteers in preparation for further studies of the safety and pharmacological activity in the amelioration of pain associated with primary dysmenorrhea.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SRX251 in people with Healthy, run by Azevan Pharmaceuticals 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 6 inclusion and 16 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 13 Mar 2008. 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 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?

safety (time frame: duration of protocol). 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 13 Mar 2008.
