  • Adequate blood and urine samples should be obtained within 21 days before beginning of the first period and at the end of the trial for clinical laboratory measurements. Clinical laboratory measurements will include the following:
  • Hematology: hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell count, platelets, and white blood cell count (with differential).
  • Clinical Chemistry: creatinine, BUN, glucose, SGOT, SGPT, bilirubin, and alkaline phosphate Urine Analysis: pH, specific gravity, protein, glucose, ketones, bilirubin, occult blood, and cells.
  • HTLV III Screen: (pre-study only) Hepatitis-B Surface Ag Screen: (pre-study only) Drugs of Abuse Screen: (pre-study only) Subjects will be selected if all above are normal.

Who cannot join

  • . Subjects with a history of chronic alcohol consumption, drug addition, or serious gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic or cardiovascular disease, tuberculosis, epilepsy, asthma, diabetes, psychosis or glaucoma will not be eligible for this study.
  • Subjects whose clinical laboratory test values are greater than 20% outside the normal range may be restricted. If the clinical values are outside the range on testing, the subject will not be eligible to participate in the study unless the clinical investigator deems the result to not be significant.
  • Subjects who have a history of allergic responses to the class of drug being tested should be excluded from the study.
  • Subjects who use tobacco in any form will not be eligible to participate in the study. Three months abstinence is required.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Gabapentin 400 mg capsules and NEURONTIN® 400 mg capsules in people with Healthy, run by Actavis Inc. at 1 site 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 7 inclusion and 8 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 17 Aug 2010. 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 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. 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?

Rate and Extend of Absorption (time frame: 72 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 17 Aug 2010.
