What is being measured

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

  1. Results of mechanical pain testing using Quantitative Sensory Testing

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of participants with Adverse Events

    Measured: Range of 14 days

  2. Vital signs

    (blood pressure, heart rate, pulse)

    Measured: Day 1

  3. Clinical chemistry (urinalysis, hematology)

    Measured: At follow up (a range of 8-15 days after Day 1)

  4. The effect of AZD3161 on axon reflex flare in normal and UVC irradiated skin using a Laser doppler scan

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD3161 and Lidocaine in people with Peripheral Neuropathic Pain and Nociceptive Pain, run by AstraZeneca at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 12 Apr 2011. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Results of mechanical pain testing using Quantitative Sensory Testing (time frame: Day 1). 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 12 Apr 2011.
