What is being measured

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

  1. Reflux Episodes 0 to 3 Hours Post Meal

    Total number of reflux episodes 0 to 3 hours post meal

    Measured: 0 to 3 hours post meal

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Transient Lower Esophagus Sphincter Relaxations (TLESRs) 0 to 3 Hours Post Meal

    Number of TLESRs 0 to 3 hours post meal were calculated based upon the manometric analysis fpr the 3-hour post-meal period.

    Measured: 0 to 3 hours post meal

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Curve(AUC)

    Area under the plasma concentration vs. time curve from time zero to 12-hours post dose calculated by loglinear trapezoidal method

    Measured: 0 to 12 hours post dose

  3. Average Plasma Concentration (C Average)

    Average plasma concentration

    Measured: 1 to 4 hours post dose

  4. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Maximum plasma concentration

    Measured: 0 to 12 hours post dose

  5. Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax)

    Time to maximum plasma concentration (Tmax)

    Measured: 0 to 12 hours post dose

  6. Terminal Half-life (T Half)

    Terminal half-life (T half)

    Measured: 0 to 12 hours post dose

  7. Clinically Relevant Change of Laboratory Variables

    Number of participants with clinically relevant change of laboratory variables as judged by the responsible medical officer.

    Measured: Pre-entry to follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AZD2516, 5 mg, AZD2516, 16 mg and AZD2516, 40 mg in people with Reflux, run by AstraZeneca at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 30 Aug 2012. 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 Belgium, Netherlands. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Aug 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Reflux Episodes 0 to 3 Hours Post Meal (time frame: 0 to 3 hours post meal). 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 30 Aug 2012.
