What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of change in lung function, as measured by change in FEV1

    Measured: 160 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. Change in absolute FEV1 from baseline

    Measured: Weeks 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 160

  2. Change in FEV1 percent predicted value from baseline

    Measured: Weeks 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 160

  3. Change in FEF25%-75% and forced vital capacity (FVC) from baseline

    Measured: Weeks 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 160

  4. Incidence of pulmonary exacerbations

    Measured: 160 Weeks

  5. Changes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa status

    Measured: 160 Weeks

  6. Number of days of intravenous (IV) antibiotic use for a respiratory complaint

    Measured: 160 Weeks

  7. Incidence of hospitalizations/Emergency room (ER) visits for a respiratory complaint

    Measured: 160 Weeks

  8. Number of days hospitalized for a respiratory complaint

    Measured: 160 Weeks

  9. Incidence of treatment emergent adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) and withdrawals due to AEs

    Measured: 160 Weeks

  10. Incidence of patients with significant decrease in absolute FEV1 at any visit from baseline

    Measured: 160 Weeks

  11. Changes in physical exam findings including height, weight, and body mass index from baseline

    Measured: Weeks 48, 96, and 160

  12. Changes in hematology, serum chemistry, and urinalysis parameters from baseline

    Measured: Weeks 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 160

  13. Incidence of hospitalizations/ER visits

    Measured: 160 Weeks

  14. Incidence of early discontinuations from the study

    Measured: 160 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Denufosol tetrasodium Inhalation Solution in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2015. 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 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Rate of change in lung function, as measured by change in FEV1 (time frame: 160 Weeks). 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 6 Nov 2015.
