About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-label, Drug Interaction Study Evaluating the Pharmacokinetic Profiles of SPD489 and EFFEXOR XR, Administered Alone and in Combination in Healthy Adult Subjects

This study will examine the effects of co-administration of SPD489 and the antidepressant EFFEXOR XR on the pharmacokinetics of lisdexamfetamine, d-amphetamine, and EFFEXOR XR. In addition, serial blood pressure and pulse measures will be obtained and examined to ensure that there are no unexpected changes in vital signs following co administration of SPD489 and EFFEXOR XR that would impact the further study of this drug combination. The hypothesis is that a drug drug interaction could possibly exist.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate

    Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (SPD489) itself is inactive, but following oral administration is converted to the active isomer, d-amphetamine, that is responsible for the drug's therapeutic activity.

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  2. Cmax of d-Amphetamine

    d-Amphetamine is the active isomer of Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (SPD489) and is responsible for the drug's therapeutic activity.

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  3. Cmax of Venlafaxine Hydrochloride

    Venlafaxine Hydrochloride is the active ingredient of Effexor XR

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  4. Cmax of o-Desmethylvenlafaxine

    Venlafaxine, after oral administration, is metabolized in the liver to an active metabolite, o-Desmethylvenlafaxine.

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  5. Cmax of Composite (Venlafaxine + o-Desmethylvenlafaxine)

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  6. Area Under the Steady-state Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC) of Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  7. AUC of d-Amphetamine

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  8. AUC of Venlafaxine Hydrochloride

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  9. AUC of o-Desmethylvenlafaxine

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  10. AUC of Composite (Venlafaxine + o-Desmethylvenlafaxine)

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  11. Time of Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  12. Tmax of d-Amphetamine

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  13. Tmax of Venlafaxine Hydrochloride

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  14. Tmax of o-Desmethylvenlafaxine

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

  15. Tmax of Composite (Venlafaxine + o-Desmethylvenlafaxine)

    Measured: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Systolic Blood Pressure

    Measured: Baseline and up to 39 days

  2. Diastolic Blood Pressure

    Measured: Baseline and up to 39 days

  3. Pulse Rate

    Measured: Baseline and up to 39 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LDX + Venlafaxine XR and Venlafaxine XR + LDX in people with Healthy, run by Shire at 1 site in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 19 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 14 Jun 2021. 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 United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Dec 2011). 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?

Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate (time frame: Day 15 and Day 30 (24 hour sampling)). The study lists 15 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01235338, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 14 Jun 2021.
