About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Open-Label, Parallel Design, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Dexlansoprazole Delayed Release Capsules in Pediatric Subjects Ages 1 to 11 Years Old With Symptomatic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics and safety of dexlansoprazole, once daily (QD), in pediatric subjects with symptomatic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.

Read the detailed description

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a condition of several causes resulting in the backward flow of gastric contents into the esophagus through the lower esophageal sphincter. The prevalence of GERD in the pediatric population is increasingly becoming recognized and documented. It is a disease that may persist through adulthood, with symptoms in older children and adolescents similar to those seen in adults.

Younger children generally present with extra-esophageal manifestations, regurgitation, and epigastric pain, while older children and adolescents typically present with adult-type GERD symptoms of heartburn and regurgitation. Treatment for GERD is aimed at improving symptoms and healing esophageal inflammation.

Takeda Global Research \& Development Center, Inc. (TGRD) developed dexlansoprazole delayed release capsules as a new therapy for treating acid related disorders including symptomatic non-erosive GERD, healing of erosive esophagitis (EE) and maintenance of healed EE.

Dexlansoprazole delayed release capsules have not been studied in subjects younger than 12 years of age. This study is designed to evaluate the safety of dexlansoprazole delayed release capsules in the pediatric population (1 to 11 years old) and to determine if the PK profile of dexlansoprazole in subjects 1 to 11 years of age is similar to that in adults given a similar dose.

Subjects who satisfy the screening evaluation and Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria may be enrolled in the study. Eligible subjects will be assigned to one of three treatment groups. Attempts will be made to enroll an equal number of male and female subjects in each treatment group.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to Reach the Peak Plasma Concentration (Tmax)

    Time to reach the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of Dexlansoprazole, equal to time (hours) to Cmax, as observed on Day 7. Pharmacokinetic parameters were derived using noncompartmental methods from the plasma concentrations of dexlansoprazole.

    Measured: Day 7 after 7 days of dosing with dexlansoprazole delayed release capsules.

  2. The Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) is the peak plasma concentration of a drug after administration, obtained directly from the plasma concentration-time curve. Pharmacokinetic parameters were derived using noncompartmental methods from the plasma concentrations of dexlansoprazole.

    Measured: Day 7 after 7 days of dosing with dexlansoprazole delayed release capsules.

  3. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) From Time 0 to Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC(0-tlqc))

    AUC(0-tlqc) is a measure of total plasma exposure to the drug from Time 0 to Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (tlqc), calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule. Pharmacokinetic parameters were derived using noncompartmental methods from the plasma concentrations of dexlansoprazole.

    Measured: Day 7 after 7 days of dosing with dexlansoprazole delayed release capsules.

  4. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) From Time 0 to 24 Hours Post-dose (AUC(0-24))

    AUC(0-24) is measure of area under the curve over the dosing interval (tau), where tau is the length of the dosing interval (24 hours), calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule. Pharmacokinetic parameters were derived using noncompartmental methods from the plasma concentrations of dexlansoprazole.

    Measured: Day 7 after 7 days of dosing with dexlansoprazole delayed release capsules.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Dexlansoprazole in people with Gastroesophageal Reflux, run by Takeda at 4 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 5 inclusion and 8 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 5 Apr 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Apr 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Time to Reach the Peak Plasma Concentration (Tmax) (time frame: Day 7 after 7 days of dosing with dexlansoprazole delayed release capsules.). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Apr 2012.
