About this study

Official title: Single-dose Nicotine Pharmacokinetics With a New Oral Nicotine Replacement Product and Nicorette® Gum. A Study in Healthy Smokers.

Single-dose pharmacokinetics with a new oral nicotine replacement product and Nicorette® gum.

Read the detailed description

The study is a single-dose, randomized, cross-over study. The investigational products will be given as single doses at separate visits. The product administrations comprise 30 minutes of chewing. Periods without Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT), lasting for at least 36 hours, will separate treatment visits. Before and after the start of product administration at each treatment visit, blood will be sampled for pharmacokinetic analyses, pre-dose, and during 8 hours after start of product administration. Used gums will be collected and analyzed to determine the amount of remaining nicotine. Subjects will also be monitored to capture any adverse events that may occur. Treatment labels will be concealed from subjects, study personnel, monitor, and analysts.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetic measurements

    Pharmacokinetic measurements including:

    • the maximum observed nicotine concentration in plasma (Cmax)
    • the area under the plasma concentration-vs.-time curve until the last measurable concentration (AUCt)
    • the area under the plasma concentration-vs.-time curve until infinity (AUC∞)

    Measured: Baseline and during 8 hours after product administration

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. tmax

    The time of occurrence of Cmax following product administration

    Measured: Baseline and during 8 hours after product administration

  2. Lamda z

    The terminal nicotine elimination rate constant (λz)

    Measured: Baseline and during 8 hours after product administration

  3. Released amount of nicotine

    The amount of nicotine released from gums during 30 minutes' chewing

    Measured: After 30 minutes of chewing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nicotine in people with Tobacco Dependence, run by McNeil AB at 1 site in Sweden.

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 2 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 10 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

Pharmacokinetic measurements (time frame: Baseline and during 8 hours after product administration). 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 10 Jul 2012.
