About this study

Official title: Phase 1B Pilot Safety Study of LiRIS-TM, A Novel Bladder Drug Delivery Platform in Patients With Interstitial Cystitis

The purpose of this study is primarily to evaluate the safety and tolerability of two dose levels of an investigational drug-delivery system (LiRIS) in patients who have moderate to severe symptoms of interstitial cystitis.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 20 female patients with interstitial cystitis will be enrolled in this study at multiple centers in Canada. LiRIS is being developed to provide drug therapy directly into the urinary bladder. LiRIS contains Lidocaine, a marketed drug (approved by Health Canada) which is commonly used for local (skin or oral)anaesthesia. LiRIS is designed to release a controlled amount of lidocaine while in the bladder over a 2 week period.

Two dose groups of approximately 10 patients per group will be enrolled into the study; the first group of patients will receive low dose LiRIS, and the second group will receive high dose LiRIS. All patients receive LiRIS treatment for 14 days, and clinic follow-up at 7 and 14 days after treatment. Additional telephone follow-up occurs at approximately 6 and 10 weeks after LiRIS treatment. The maximum duration of participation, including a screening period of up to 14 days, will be 104 days.

Being tested
LiRIS low dose and LiRIS high dose

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • LiRIS low dose and LiRIS high doseDrug

    Drug delivery system containing lidocaine; LiRIS (low or high dose) is inserted into bladder via cystoscopy on Day 1 and removed via cystoscopy on Day 14. Designed to release lidocaine over a 14 day period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LiRIS low dose and LiRIS high dose in people with Interstitial Cystitis, run by Allergan at 3 sites in Canada.

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 4 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 25 Nov 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Canada. 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?

Cystoscopic examination (time frame: Days 1 and 14). 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 25 Nov 2014.
