About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Single-Center, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Arm Study of the Effects of Avanafil on the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Warfarin in Healthy Male Subjects

This study is designed to look into the effect of avanafil on blood levels of warfarin and to investigate its effect on prothrombin time/international normalized ratio (INR) in healthy men.

Read the detailed description

The trial is a single-centre, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 2-way crossover drug interaction study with at least a 21-day washout period.

Each subject will participate in two sessions in which they will be randomized to receive either 200 mg of avanafil or matching placebo for 9 days. On Day 3 of each period, subjects will receive a single dose of warfarin (25 mg). Following the warfarin dose, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic sampling will be taken over a period of 7 days. Subjects will be discharged on Day 10 following the end-of-period evaluation. There will be a washout of at least 21 days between the warfarin doses. The study medications will be administered with 240 mL of water following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours.

Blood samples (3 mL) for the assessment of R- and S-warfarin concentrations in plasma will be drawn on Day 3 prior to warfarin administration and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours after the warfarin administration.

Blood samples (3 mL) for the assessment of avanafil and/or metabolite concentrations will be drawn on Day 3 prior to avanafil (or placebo) administration and at 0.5, 1, and 2 hours post-dose.

Blood samples (4.5 mL) for the assessment of prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized ratio (INR) will be drawn at screening, check-in, on Day 3 prior to warfarin administration and at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post-dose.

Blood samples (4.5 mL) for collagen-induced platelet aggregation will be drawn on Day 3 prior to warfarin administration and at 1, 4, 6, 12, and 24 hours post-dose.

A blood sample (8.5 mL) for VKORC1 and CYP2C9 genotyping will be drawn at the check-in for Period 1.

The overall blood volume required for this study (assuming direct venipuncture for each sample) will be approximately 446 mL.

All subjects will be confined at the Clinical Research Unit starting in on Day -2 for diet equilibration and will remain confined for approximately 24 hours following the last study drug administration on Day 9.

Adverse events, laboratory evaluations, electrocardiogram, physical examination, and vital signs will be assessed at various times during the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 200 mg Avanafil 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 11 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Pharmacokinetics - PK parameters AUC, C-max and t-max of R-and S-warfarin (time frame: 24 hrs). The study lists 2 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 7 Jan 2011.
