About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Multiple-dosing, Crossover, and Parallel Study to Evaluate the Safety and Pharmacokinetics After Oral Concurrent Administration of Fimasartan and Hydrochlorothiazide in Healthy Male Volunteers

To evaluate drug-drug interaction between fimasartan and hydrochlorothiazide.

Read the detailed description

Fimasartan (BR-A-657-K), a selective blocker of AT1 receptor subtype, showed the rapid and potent antihypertensive effect in many hypertensive models.

Phase I study, Fimasartan (BR-A-657-K) 20 mg ~ 480 mg single dosing with healthy subjects, demonstrated that the Fimasartan (BR-A-657-K) was very safe and well tolerated. Another phase I study, Fimasartan (BR-A-657-K) 120mg and 360mg dosing for 7 days, also showed that Fimasartan (BR-A-657-K) was safe and tolerable though one temporal adverse event was observed in high dose.

A open-labeled, multiple-dosing, crossover, parallel Clinical Study to Evaluate drug-drug interaction between fimasartan and hydrochlorothiazide.

34 male healthy volunteers were enrolled during 2 months.

In part A, 240 mg of fimasartan per day was taken for 1 week. After 7 day washout period, 240 mg of fimasartan and 25mg of hydrochlorothiazide per day were taken for 1 week. Then blood and urine samples were collected 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours at 7 day and 21 day.

In part B, 25 mg of hydrochlorothiazide per day was taken for 1 week. After 7 day washout period, 240 mg of fimasartan and 25mg of hydrochlorothiazide per day were taken for 1 week. Then blood and urine samples were collected 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours at 7 day and 21 day.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Fimasartan and Hydrochlorothiazide in people with Essential Hypertension, run by Boryung Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

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 4 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 Oct 2009. 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?

AUC, Cmax, Tmax, CL/F (time frame: 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 hours at 7 day and 21 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00923533, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Oct 2009.
