About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Phase 1 Study to Examine the Effect of Multiple Doses of Rifampin on the Single-Dose Pharmacokinetics of VX 770 in Healthy Subjects

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the effects of multiple doses of rifampin on the single-dose pharmacokinetics of VX 770.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, nonrandomized, open-label, 2-period, 1-sequence crossover study to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of VX 770 when administered alone or with rifampin.

All enrolled subjects will receive the same treatments and undergo the same procedures. In Period 1, subjects will receive a single dose of VX 770 on Day 1. In Period 2, subjects will receive a daily dose of rifampin on Days 1 through 10 and a single dose of VX 770 on Day 6.

Conditions

What is being measured

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

  1. VX 770 pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters

    Measured: 17 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. VX 770 metabolite PK parameters in plasma

    Measured: 17 days

  2. Rifampin concentration at time zero (C0) and AUC at steady state (AUCtau) following the administration of multiple doses of rifampin

    Measured: 17 days

  3. Safety as measured by adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and clinically significant laboratory assessments

    Measured: 17 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing VX-770 and Rifampin in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated 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 2 inclusion and 2 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 10 May 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?

VX 770 pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters (time frame: 17 days). 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 10 May 2010.
