What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetics of of EE and LNG by analysis of the AUC and Css,max.

    Measured: PK sampling will be performed regularly during the study period of two months.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Effect on LH, FSH, SHBG, progesterone, and E2 during the menstrual cycle: Serum concentrations of LH, FSH, SHBG, progesterone and E2

    Measured: PD sampling will be done at the end of treatment period 1 and 2.

  2. Safety and tolerability of the combination: Adverse events, safety laboratory variables, pulse, blood pressure, electrocardiogram and physical examinations

    Measured: Safety will be monitored continously and safety assessments will be made on several occasions throughout the whole study.

  3. Steady state PK of 1981 in combo with oral contraceptives AUCτ, Css,max, time to Cmax during a dosing interval (tmax ss);apparent plasma clearance (CLss/F) of AZD1981(tmax ss) of EE and LNG; Morning Ctrough values of EE and LNG will be measured.

    Measured: PK-sampling of AZD1981 wil be done at the end of treatment period 1 and 2.

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 3 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 18 Nov 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Sweden. 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. 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 of of EE and LNG by analysis of the AUC and Css,max. (time frame: PK sampling will be performed regularly during the study period of two months.). 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 18 Nov 2010.
