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 45 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Capable of understanding and willing to provide signed and dated written voluntary informed consent (and any local or national authorization requirements) before any protocol specific procedures are performed.
  • Male or female aged from 18 to 45 years at time of consent and at time of first dose.
  • A body mass index (BMI) between 18.5 and 30 kg/m2.
  • Able to complete the study and to comply with study instructions.
  • Free of clinically significant disease as determined by history, physical examination, and laboratory testing.
  • The subject is a non-smoker or ex-smoker. If a subject is an ex smoker, he/she must not have used nicotine for at least 6 months before first dose.
Show all 17Show fewer
  • The screening and baseline laboratory parameters must be within normal ranges unless agreed as not clinically relevant by the principal investigator and the sponsor. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase, and total bilirubin values should be lower than 1.5 times the upper normal limit at screening.
  • The subject will have negative results for the following tests at screening:
  • Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)
  • Hepatitis B core antibodies (HBcAc)
  • Anti-hepatitis C virus (Anti-HCV)
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody test
  • Urine drug screen
  • Sexually active females of childbearing potential participating in the study must agree to use a medically acceptable method of contraception while receiving protocol-assigned product and until 30 days following the last dose of the study product. A woman of childbearing potential is defined as one who is biologically capable of becoming pregnant; including perimenopausal women who are less than 2 years from their last menses. Acceptable contraceptive methods include the following:
  • Hormonal contraception, including oral, injectable, or implantable methods started at least 2 months prior to screening. If hormonal contraception was started less than 2 months prior to screening, then a form of nonhormonal contraception should be added until the third continuous month of hormonal contraception has been completed.
  • Two forms of reliable nonhormonal contraception, to include the use of either an intrauterine device plus a reliable barrier method or 2 reliable barrier methods. Reliable barrier methods include condoms or diaphragms. A cervical cap is also a reliable barrier method, provided that the female subject has never given birth naturally. The combined use of a condom and spermicide constitute 2 forms of acceptable nonhormonal contraception, provided that they are both used properly. The use of spermicide alone and the improper use of condoms are inferior methods of contraception. Subjects with surgical sterilization, including tubal sterilization or partner's vasectomy, must use a form of nonhormonal contraception. A barrier method or sterilization plus spermatocide are acceptable.
  • Women who are not currently sexually active must agree to use a medically accepted method of contraception should they become sexually active while participating in the study. Male subjects and/or their partners must use a medically acceptable form of contraception

Who cannot join

  • Female who is pregnant (positive pregnancy test), trying to become pregnant, or breast feeding.
  • Received any investigational drug within 30 days of study day 1 or who are scheduled to receive an investigational drug other than the study product during the study.
  • Used prescription drug therapy, over the counter (nonprescription) medications, recreational drugs, or herbal products within 30 days of dosing, unless agreed as not clinically relevant by the principal investigator and sponsor.
  • Participated in a previous study of the same study product.
  • Currently using any medication that, in the opinion of the investigator, may affect the evaluation of the study product or place the subject at undue risk.
  • Currently suffering from any disease or condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, may affect the evaluation of the study product or place the subject at undue risk.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Open-Label, Crossover Safety and Pharmacokinetic Study of 400 mg Albaconazole as a Tablet Formulation Versus a Capsule Formulation in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to determine whether albaconazole tablets and albaconazole capsules (single 400mg dose) act in the body in the same way over a period of time.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to compare the bioavailability of the formulation used in earlier clinical studies (albaconazole capsules) with the formulation intended for use in further development (albaconazole tablets). The study is also designed to assess the safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of albaconazole tablets (400 mg), and assess the bioequivalence of albaconazole tablets with albaconazole capsules.

What is being measured

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

  1. Bioavailability of albaconazole

    Measured: Blood samples taken predose and at 30 minutes, and 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12 (day 1 time points), 18 (day 2), 24 (day 2), hours post-dose and once a day on days 3-16

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Albaconazole tablet 400mg and Albaconazole 100mg capsules, then albaconazole 400mg tablet in people with Onychomycosis, run by Stiefel, a GSK Company 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 17 inclusion and 26 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 Jun 2017. 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?

Bioavailability of albaconazole (time frame: Blood samples taken predose and at 30 minutes, and 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12 (day 1 time points), 18 (day 2), 24 (day 2), hours post-dose and once a day on days 3-16). 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 NCT01039883, 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 Jun 2017.
