What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax (Maximum Observed Concentration of Drug Substance in Plasma)for Ramipril.

    Bioequivalence based on Cmax.

    Measured: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period.

  2. AUC0-t (Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Time of Last Measurable Concentration)for Ramipril.

    Bioequivalence based on AUC0-t.

    Measured: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period.

  3. AUC0-inf (Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity)for Ramipril.

    Bioequivalence based on AUC0-inf.

    Measured: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Cmax (Maximum Observed Concentration of Drug Substance in Plasma)for Ramiprilat.

    Informational comparison of Cmax values for the metabolite Ramiprilat.

    Measured: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period.

  2. AUC0-72 (Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Time of 72 Hours)for Ramiprilat.

    Informational comparison of AUC0-72 values for the metabolite Ramiprilat.

    Measured: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ramipril 10 mg capsule and Altace® 10 mg capsule in people with Healthy, run by Teva Pharmaceuticals USA at 2 sites in Canada.

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 5 inclusion and 33 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 19 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Canada. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Aug 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Cmax (Maximum Observed Concentration of Drug Substance in Plasma)for Ramipril. (time frame: Blood samples collected over a 72 hour period.). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Aug 2024.
