About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-label, 4-period Crossover Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics (PK), Pharmacodynamics (PD) and the PK/PD Relationship of DPOC-4088 After Single Oral Dosing of 100 and 200 mg in 2 Prolonged Release Formulations (16 and 20 hr) in 12 Healthy Young Male Subjects

This will be a study existing of 4 periods, to evaluate for a single dose of 4 different tablets of DPOC-4088 the absorption and elimination from the body and the potential effect on blood clotting. The differences between the tablets are the dose (100 or 200 mg) and the rate of release of DPOC-4088 from the tablet (16 or 20 hours). The allocation of the tablets in each period will be determined by chance but is known upfront.

Read the detailed description

This will be a randomized, open-label, single oral dose study. The 4-period crossover study will determine and compare the PK and PD profiles of DPOC-4088 when administered as a single oral dose of 100 mg and 200 mg of DPOC-4088 in two prolonged release formulations (16 and 20 hr) in 12 evaluable young healthy male subjects.

Each subject (in a fasting state) will receive each of the 4 treatments (A, B, C, and D) in a balanced, 4-period crossover design. Each treatment consists of a single oral dose of 100 mg or 200 mg of DPOC-4088 in either prolonged release formulation (16 or 20 hr). Subjects will arrive at the study unit for an overnight fast of at least 10 hrs the evening before each dosing period and remain in the unit for at least 24 hrs after dosing. Standard meals will be provided and subjects will receive their first meal after dosing at 4 hrs post-dose. Blood samples will be drawn for PK and PD evaluations immediately prior to dosing and at specified time intervals for 48 hrs post-dosing. Each dosing period will be separated by at least a 5-day washout period that is preferentially not to exceed 10 days.

In healthy young male subjects, the safety, tolerability, and the PK profile of DPOC-4088 will be assessed. Additionally, this study will assess the PD profile and the relationship of PK/PD in terms of the ability of DPOC-4088 to inhibit thrombin activity (based on prolongation of aPTT, ECT, TT and PT).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing DPOC-4088 in people with Deep Vein Thrombosis Leg, run by Diakron Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in Belgium.

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 7 inclusion and 23 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 7 Jul 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 Belgium. 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?

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?

plasma concentration ratios (time frame: pre-dose until 48 hrs post-dose). 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 7 Jul 2011.
