Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to compare absorption of TMC435 formulated as 2 different types of capsules. After that, the absorption of one chosen TMC435 capsule will be compared when taken under fasting conditions or together with a standard or a high-fat meal. This will be done in healthy volunteers.

About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-label, Randomized, Single-dose, 2-panel, Crossover Trial in Healthy Subjects to Assess the Relative Bioavailability of TMC435 HPMC Capsule Compared to the TMC435 Gelatin Capsule and to Assess the Effect of Different Meal Types on the Bioavailability of Both Formulations

The purpose of this study is to compare absorption of TMC435 formulated as 2 different types of capsules. After that, the absorption of one chosen TMC435 capsule will be compared when taken under fasting conditions or together with a standard or a high-fat meal. This will be done in healthy volunteers.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, randomized, single-dose, crossover trial in healthy volunteers. Crossover means that participants may receive different interventions sequentially during the trial. Randomized means that you will be assigned to a treatment sequence by chance, like flipping a coin. Open-label means that you and your physician will know what treatment you will receive. The study will consist of 3 phases: a screening phase, a treatment phase and a follow-up phase. Total study duration for an individual participant will be up to 6 or 7 weeks. Once found eligible after the screening phase, participants will take part in one of the two parts of the treatment phase. In the first part, a group of 24 participants will receive two treatment sessions, A and B. The order in which the treatments are given will be determined by chance. Treatment A is a single dose of TMC345 as one formulation (1 capsule). Treatment B is a single dose of TMC435 as another formulation (1 other type of capsule). Both treatments will be taken without food. In between the 2 sessions, there will be at least 7 days. In the second part, another group of 24 participants will receive 3 treatment sessions, C, D, and E. The order in which these treatments are given will be determined by chance. All 3 treatments will consist of a single dose of TMC435 as one of the 2 formulations given in the first part. In Treatment C this will be given without food, in Treatment D with a standardized breakfast and in Treatment E with a high-fat breakfast. In between the sessions, there will be at least 7 days. For all treatment sessions, participants will enter the study center the day before dosing and will remain there until the evening of the day after. The 3 following mornings, participants will come back to the study center. Five to 7 days after dosing, participants will have a last follow-up visit at the study center (follow-up phase). During the study, safety will be monitored, and during the treatment phase, at specified timepoints, blood samples will be taken for pharmacokinetic evalutions (effect of the body on the drug). In every treatment session, a single oral 150 mg TMC435 capsule will be given. One formulation will be a gelatin capsule. The other formulation will be a hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) capsule.

What is being measured

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

  1. Absorption of TMC435 following administration of the HPMC capsule and of the gelatin capsule

    Measured: Over 72 hours for every treatment session

  2. Absorption of TMC435 following administration of the HPMC or gelatin capsule in the fed (following different meal types) and fasted state

    Measured: Over 72 hours for every treatment session

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of participants with adverse events and the severity of adverse events

    Measured: During maximum 7 weeks

  2. Percentage of abnormal values for laboratory parameters

    Measured: Up to maximum 7 weeks

  3. Observed values and changes from baseline of cardiovascular variables

    Measured: Up to maximum 7 weeks

  4. Evaluation of pulse and blood pressure values, based on changes from baseline and the percentage of participants with values beyond clinically important limits

    Measured: Up to maximum 7 weeks

  5. Physical examination findings and changes from baseline.

    Measured: Up to maximum 7 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TMC435 HPMC capsule, TMC435 HPMC or gelatin capsule and TMC435 gelatin capsule in people with Hepatitis C, run by Tibotec Pharmaceuticals, Ireland.

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 4 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 11 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Absorption of TMC435 following administration of the HPMC capsule and of the gelatin capsule (time frame: Over 72 hours for every treatment session). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 11 Oct 2012.
