Who cannot join

  • Diagnosis of possible, probable, or definite vascular dementia in accordance with NINDS-AIREN6 criteria

Show all 19Show fewer
  • History or clinical/laboratory evidence congestive heart failure defined by the New York Heart Association criteria (Class I to IV cardiac status) (Appendix 4).
  • History of cardiovascular event within the last 6 months (i.e. intervention, percutaneous coronary intervention, vascular surgery, acute coronary syndrome [non Q-wave myocardial infarction, Q-wave myocardial infarction, unstable angina] or significant arrhythmia; or major intervention (e.g. cardiac surgery or angiography plus stenting) scheduled).

  • History or presence of gastro-intestinal, hepatic, or renal disease or other condition known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of drugs, or any other clinically relevant abnormality, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, makes the subject unsuitable for inclusion in the study.

  • ALT, AST, or alkaline phosphatase values >2.5 times the upper limit of normal, total bilirubin values >1.5 times the upper limit of normal, or history of severe hepatobiliary disease (e.g. hepatitis B or C, or cirrhosis, Child-Pugh Class B/C).
  • History of a bone marrow transplant.
  • Positive hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus or HIV test at screening.

About this study

Official title: An Open Label Single Oral Dose Study in Patients With Mild Alzheimer's Disease to Assess the Pharmacokinetics of Extended Release Formulation of Rosiglitazone (RSG XR) in This Population

The present pharmacokinetic study is designed to assess the pharmacokinetics of RSG XR as monotherapy in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) as such information will not be obtained from the current phase III trials . The study aims to enroll fourteen patients (seven of each APOE genotype). Each patient will receive a single oral dose of 4mg of RSG XR in the morning under fasted conditions and PK samples will be taken up to 36h.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Rosiglitazone (Extended Release) in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Germany.

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 19 inclusion and 19 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 7 Nov 2016. 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 Germany. 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?

AUC (0-inf) and Cmax of RSG XR (time frame: Up to 36 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Nov 2016.
