About this study

Official title: Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Two-Way Crossover Study to Evaluate the Effects of Phenylephrine HCl Extended-Release Tablets 30 mg Compared to Placebo on Ambulatory Blood Pressure

Randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind, crossover design study; 116 subjects randomized on Day 1 to obtain 98 completed subjects. Study will be composed of a 7-day period of therapy with randomized active or placebo treatment with a subsequent 6-8 day washout period, followed by a second 7-day period of double-blind therapy with the other agent. Ambulatory blood pressure measurement will be performed beginning on Day 7 of each treatment period following administration of the study drug.

Being tested
Phenylephrine Hydrochloride (HCl) Extended-Release tablets 30 mg, Placebo

What is being measured

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

  1. Average Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) Readings for a 5-hour Range Around the Time of Maximum Concentration (Tmax).

    Five hour (hr) range around the Tmax was defined as approximately 2 hours before to approximately 2 hours after the Tmax, including Tmax. The parameters will be compared between active drug and placebo using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The 95% 2-sided Confidence Interval (CI) on the difference between treatments will also be presented.

    Measured: 24 hours after final dose of each 7-day treatment period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Phenylephrine Hydrochloride (HCl) Extended-Release tablets 30 mg in people with Blood Pressure and Human Experimentation, run by Bayer.

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 12 inclusion and 14 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 11 Mar 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. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Jul 2010). 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?

Average Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) Readings for a 5-hour Range Around the Time of Maximum Concentration (Tmax). (time frame: 24 hours after final dose of each 7-day treatment period.). 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 11 Mar 2015.
