Show all 17Show fewer
  • Received an investigational drug within the past 30 days.

  • History of multiple drug allergies or allergy to any medicine chemically related to the study drug (eg, amiloride, Moduretic, Midamor, triamterene).
  • Any clinically significant allergic disease, including food allergies, with the exception of nonactive hayfever.

  • Sitting blood pressure at screening higher than 150/90 mmHg or lower than 100/50 mmHg after resting for 5 minutes.
  • Sitting pulse rate at screening outside the range of 50 - 90 beats per minute (bpm) after resting for 5 minutes.
  • Consumes more than 2 alcoholic drinks per day or has a significant history of alcoholism or drug/chemical abuse within the past 12 months.
  • History of using tobacco products within the last 3 months.
  • Has viral hepatitis or tests positively for the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis C (non-A, non-B) antibody, or a positive result for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibodies.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Vehicle-Controlled, Parallel Arm Study of 552-02 in Subjects With Dry Mouth Associated With Sjogren's Syndrome

This clinical study is to determine whether daily administration of a formulation of 552-02 improves the dry mouth condition in subjects with primary Sjögren's syndrome.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this clinical study is to determine whether daily administration of an oromucosal formulation of 552-02 improves the global assessment of dry mouth, as assessed by visual analog scale (VAS), in subjects with primary Sjögren's syndrome.

The secondary objectives of this study are as follows:

  • To evaluate the safety of daily administration of an oromucosal formulation of 552-02 in subjects with primary Sjögren's syndrome.
  • To evaluate whether administration of an oromucosal formulation of 552-02 improves the subjective measurement of 6 different salivary functions, as measured using VAS, in subjects with primary Sjögren's syndrome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 552-02 in people with Dry Mouth Associated With Sjogren's Syndrome and Xerostomia, run by Parion Sciences at 15 sites 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 8 inclusion and 17 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 18 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Global assessment of dry mouth, as assessed by visual analog scale (VAS), in subjects with primary Sjögren's syndrome. (time frame: 49 Days). 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 18 Sep 2018.
