About this study

Official title: A PHASE I, A SINGLE-CENTRE, DOUBLE-BLIND, RANDOMIZED, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, THREE-PERIOD, THREE-WAY CROSSOVER STUDY OF THE HEMODYNAMIC INTERACTIONS OF AVANAFIL AND ALCOHOL IN HEALTHY MALE SUBJECTS

The purpose of this study is primarily to evaluate whether taking avanafil with alcohol causes the blood pressure to fall.

Read the detailed description

The trial is a single-centre double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, three-period, three-way crossover study, in which each subject will be randomized to receive each of the following three treatments with a washout period of at least 5 days between treatments:

  • Treatment A: a single oral dose of one 200 mg avanafil tablet plus an oral dose of alcohol drink mixed with fruit juice (0.5 g of absolute ethanol per kilogram of body weight).
  • Treatment B: a single oral dose of one placebo tablet plus an oral dose of alcohol drink mixed with fruit juice (0.5 g of absolute ethanol per kilogram of body weight).
  • Treatment C: a single oral dose of one 200 mg avanafil tablet plus an oral dose of placebo drink mixed with fruit juice.

For each treatment period, Dinamap (or DataScope) automatic measurements of supine blood pressure and pulse rate will be taken pre-dose and every 15 minutes for 4 hours post-dose. Alcohol levels using a breathalyzer will be measured at pre-dose and up to 8 hours post dose during all 3 treatments by designated unblinded personnel. Subjects should be supine for at least 5-10 minutes before the blood pressure and heart rate measurement.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. For supine systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure, the area under effect-time curve (AUEC0- t), expressed as change from baseline and the maximum decrease in blood pressure. For supine pulse rate, maximum increase in pulse rate.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing avanafil and alcohol in people with Erectile Dysfunction, run by VIVUS LLC.

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 3 inclusion and 6 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 7 Jan 2011. 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?

For supine systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure, the area under effect-time curve (AUEC0- t), expressed as change from baseline and the maximum decrease in blood pressure. For supine pulse rate, maximum increase in pulse rate. (time frame: 1 day). 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 7 Jan 2011.
