What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the effect curve (AUEC) for serum aldosterone and PRA on Day 0 and on Days 1 and 10 after administration of 100 mg of eplerenone

    Measured: 11 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Single Dose PK for eplerenone: Cmax, Tmax, and AUCtau; Multiple Dose PK for eplerenone: Cmax(ss), Tmax(ss), AUC(,tau,ss), half life, Cmin(ss), Cave(ss), accumulation ratios AUC(tau,ss)/AUC(tau,sd) and Cmax(ss)/Cmax(sd).

    Measured: 13 days

  2. Safety and tolerability of eplerenone as determined by adverse event reporting, clinical laboratory results, vital signs (supine blood pressure and heart rate), physical examinations and ECGs.

    Measured: 13 days

  3. Change from baseline (Day 0) to Day 8 in exploratory mRNA gene expression biomarkers (SGK1: Serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase 1 gene, ENaCα: Epithelial Sodium Channel alpha subunit, ENaCγ: Epithelial Sodium Channel gamma subunit,

    Measured: 9 days

  4. MR: Mineralcorticoid Receptor, ACTβ: Beta Actin) after administration of eplerenone or placebo. These results will not be included in the study report.

    Measured: 9 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study of Healthy Volunteers, run by Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. at 2 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 2 inclusion and 5 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 22 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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. 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?

Area under the effect curve (AUEC) for serum aldosterone and PRA on Day 0 and on Days 1 and 10 after administration of 100 mg of eplerenone (time frame: 11 days). 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 NCT00990223, 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 22 Dec 2020.
