Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 55 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Healthy male and/or female subjects between the ages of 18 and 55 years, inclusive (Healthy is defined as no clinically relevant abnormalities identified by a detailed medical history, full physical examination, including blood pressure and pulse rate measurement, 12-lead ECG and clinical laboratory tests)

What is being measured

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

  1. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Test Drug and Reference Drug

    Measured: Up to 72h

  2. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero to the last measurable concentration of Test Drug and Reference Drug (AUC(0-tlast))

    Measured: Up to 72h

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero to infinity of Test Drug and Reference Drug (AUC(0-inf))

    Measured: Up to 72h

  2. Time to peak concentration of Test Drug and Reference Drug (Tmax)

    Measured: Up to 72h

  3. Half-life of Test Drug and Reference Drug (T1/2)

    Measured: Up to 72h

  4. Elimination rate constant (K el)

    Measured: Up to 72h

  5. Area under the curve from the time of dosing (AUC t/inf) extrapolated to infinity

    Measured: Up to 72h

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing alprazolam tablet and alprazolam oral solution in people with Healthy, run by Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. at 1 site in Brazil.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 28 Jan 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 Brazil. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Test Drug and Reference Drug (time frame: Up to 72h). 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 28 Jan 2021.
