Safety Study of Prucalopride in Healthy Volunteers
A Phase 1 study testing Prucalopride in people with Healthy, run by Movetis.
Trial summary
In this study healthy volunteers received increasing doses of prucalopride to study the tolerability and cardiac safety of prucalopride. The study hypothesis was that prucalopride at doses up to 10 mg has no clinically relevant effect on the cardiovascular safety in healthy volunteers. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Two-Way Cross-Over in Healthy Volunteers, to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Tolerability and Cardiac Safety of Prucalopride at Steady-State
In this study healthy volunteers received increasing doses of prucalopride to study the tolerability and cardiac safety of prucalopride. The study hypothesis was that prucalopride at doses up to 10 mg has no clinically relevant effect on the cardiovascular safety in healthy volunteers.
Read the detailed description
Single-centre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study in 33 healthy volunteers with 2 sessions. Each session consisted of a run-in day for baseline assessments, 8 treatment days and 5 additional days for followup assessments. Subjects were randomised to start with either the prucalopride or placebo session. The prucalopride dose was consecutively escalated in 2 mg steps per day, starting from 2 mg up to 10 mg once daily If a subject did not tolerate the 10- or 8-mg dose, 1 step back in the dosage scheme was allowed, from 10 to 8 mg on Day 6, or from 8 to 6 mg on Day 5. Subjects with intolerance for doses of less than 6 mg, were withdrawn from the study. Repeated dosing (6, 8 or 10 mg) was continued once daily until Day 8, to achieve steady-state. During placebo, the number of placebo tablets was consecutively escalated in an identical way as described for prucalopride. Between the 2 sessions, there was a washout period of 14 to 21 days, to avoid any carry-over effect.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Prucalopride in people with Healthy, run by Movetis.
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 9 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 21 Nov 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
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 21 Nov 2008.
