About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Open-Label, Multi-Center, Safety And Efficacy Study of Oakwood Laboratories' Leuprolide Acetate For Injectable Suspension 22.5 mg In Patients With Prostate Cancer

The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of Leuprolide Acetate for Injectable Suspension 22.5 mg in reducing serum testosterone to castrate levels in patients with prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study is an open-label, multi-center study in which a minimum of 165 patients will receive one (1) of three (3) lots of Oakwood Laboratories' Leuprolide Acetate for Injectable Suspension 22.5 mg for two cycles. A subset of patients (minimum of 12) will be assigned to each lot (A, B or C) and will have additional blood sampling to characterize leuprolide release kinetics for each dose administered.

What participants receive

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

  • Leuprolide Acetate for Injectable SuspensionDrug

    Sustained release injectable microspheres, 22.5 mg, one injection every 84 days, 3-month product

What is being measured

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

  1. The percentage of responders who attain and maintain castrate levels of serum testosterone

    Measured: From Day 28 to Day 168.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Safety as shown through laboratory parameters

    Hematology, chemistry and urinalysis

    Measured: Day 0 - Day 168

  2. Leuprolide serum profiles following administration study drug product.

    Leuprolide levels (ng/dL) measured at designated time points to determine a pharmacokinetic profile for the product.

    Measured: Day 0 - Day 168

  3. Safety as shown through reported adverse events

    Measured: Day 0 -168

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Leuprolide Acetate for Injectable Suspension in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Oakwood Laboratories, LLC 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 11 inclusion and 20 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 8 Sep 2010. 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?

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 percentage of responders who attain and maintain castrate levels of serum testosterone (time frame: From Day 28 to Day 168.). 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 8 Sep 2010.
