About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Randomised, Two-Part Crossover Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics of a Single Dose of SB-742457 Formulated as a Capsule and a Tablet in Healthy Elderly Volunteers.

SB-742457 is a 5HT6 receptor antagonist that is in development for the symptomatic treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease . To date, all clinical trials have been conducted using a capsule formulation of SB-742457. However, it is intended to conduct all futures studies with a tablet formulation. The aim of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic profile of SB-742457 and its major metabolites following single doses of both the capsule and tablet formulations.

What is being measured

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

  1. To characterise pharmacokinetics ( AUC(0-inf) and Cmax ) of SB-742457 from pre-dose to 96 hours following single doses formulated as a capsule and a tablet.

    Measured: pre-dose to 96 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To assess safety and tolerability (adverse events, blood pressure, heart rate, 12-lead ECG, blood haematology/clinical chemistry and urinalysis) of SB-742457 following single doses formulated as a capsule and a tablet over the 6 week study period.

    Measured: 6 week study period

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 3 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Dec 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?

To characterise pharmacokinetics ( AUC(0-inf) and Cmax ) of SB-742457 from pre-dose to 96 hours following single doses formulated as a capsule and a tablet. (time frame: pre-dose to 96 hours). 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?
