Key requirements
Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.
- Ages 18 to 55 years
- Men only
- Healthy volunteers accepted
- Adult
Who may be able to join
- Body Mass Index (weight [kg]/height [m²]) of 18 to 28 kg/m², inclusive
- Have a supine (after 5 minutes rest) blood pressure between the range of 100 to 140 mmHg systolic, inclusive, and 50 to 90 mmHg diastolic, inclusive
- Healthy on the basis of a prestudy physical examination, medical history, ECG, and the laboratory results of serum chemistry, hematology and urinalysis performed within 21 days before the first dose. If the results of the serum chemistry, hematology or urinalysis testing are not within the laboratory's reference ranges the volunteer can be included only if the investigator judges that the deviations are not clinically significant. For renal function tests, the values must be within the normal laboratory reference ranges.

About this study
Official title: Pivotal Bioequivalence Study With 15 mg ER OROS Paliperidone Comparing the Phase 3 Formulation With the To-be-marketed Formulation and Evaluation of Food Effect on the to be Marketed Formulation in Healthy Male Subjects
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the bioequivalence between the Phase 3 and the to-be-marketed formulations of extended release (ER) OROS paliperidone and to evaluate the effect of food on the highest to be marketed tablet strength. Additionally, the safety and tolerability of the treatments in healthy volunteers will be assessed.
Read the detailed description
This study is designed as a single-center, open-label, randomized, 3 treatment-period, crossover study in healthy male adults. The study consists of a screening phase and an open-label treatment phase during which each volunteer will receive 3 treatments of study drug in a random order and separated by a washout period of 10 to 14 days. Treatment A consists of a single oral dose of 15 mg ER OROS paliperidone Phase 3 formulation in the fasted state; Treatment B consists of a single oral dose of 15 mg ER OROS paliperidone to-be-marketed formulation in fasted state; and Treatment C consists of a single oral dose of 15 mg ER OROS paliperidone to-be-marketed formulation after consumption of a high-fat breakfast. There are slight formulation differences between the ER OROS paliperidone formulation that was used in Phase 3 efficacy studies and the formulation that is intended to be marketed. What is more important, however, is that the highest tablet strength used in Phase 3 and the tablet strength that is planned for the market as commercial formulation are different. For Phase 3 studies, 9 mg was the highest tablet strength and the highest dose of 15 mg was administered as 2 tablets of 3 mg and 1 tablet of 9 mg. The highest to-be-marketed tablet strength is 15 mg. This study is designed to demonstrate the bioequivalence between the Phase 3 formulation and the highest tablet strength of the to-be-marketed formulation and to assess the effect of food on the highest to-be-marketed tablet strength. Safety and tolerability will be monitored throughout the study. All volunteers will receive each of the following 3 treatments in the order specified by the random assignment:Treatment A, oral ER OROS paliperidone Phase 3 formulation as 2 tablets of 3 mg and 1 tablet of 9 mg in the fasted state; Treatment B, oral ER OROS paliperidone to-be-marketed formulation as 1 tablet of 15 mg in the fasted state; Treatment C, oral ER OROS paliperidone to-be-marketed formulation as 1 tablet of 15 mg after a high-fat breakfast.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing ER OROS Paliperidone in people with Schizophrenia, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C..
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 3 inclusion and 9 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 8 Jun 2011. 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 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?
To evaluate the bioequivalence between the Phase 3 and the to-be-marketed formulations of ER OROS paliperidone and to evaluate the effect of food on the highest to-be-marketed tablet strength. 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 8 Jun 2011.
