About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Double-Blind, Study of the Tolerability of Formulations of Ketorolac Tromethamine Following Intranasal Administration in Healthy Volunteers

This was a Phase 1, double blind, two part study in healthy male and female volunteers. Each subject participated in only one part of the study. In Part A subjects received one dose of 15 mg ketorolac tromethamine with a lidocaine hydrochloride free formulation in one nostril and one dose of 15 mg ketorolac tromethamine containing 6% lidocaine hydrochloride in the other nostril, in a randomized manner. In Part B subjects were randomized to receive a single intranasal dose of 15 mg ketorolac tromethamine containing 0% lidocaine hydrochloride into one nostril and either placebo or a single intranasal dose of 15 mg ketorolac tromethamine containing 0%, 4% or 6% lidocaine hydrochloride into the other nostril. During the study, subjects remained resident from the morning of Day 1 until the afternoon of Day 1, when a post-study medical was performed prior to discharge.

The objective of this study was to compare the tolerability of formulations of ketorolac tromethamine with differing concentrations of lidocaine hydrochloride (0% and 6% in Part A and 0%, 4%, 6% and placebo in Part B) following intranasal administration to healthy volunteers.

What is being measured

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

  1. Discomfort Measurement on a Visual Analogue Scale

    Following administration of each treatment, subjects completed a visual analogue scale (VAS) (ranging from "no discomfort" to "severe discomfort") at 1, 5, 10 and 15 minutes post-dose. If after the 15 minute VAS assessment discomfort was still present the subject was asked to complete further VAS assessments, at 5 minute intervals, until the discomfort had dissipated.

    Measured: 15 minutes post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ketorolac tromethamine in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Egalet Ltd 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 10 inclusion and 21 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 6 Mar 2018. 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. 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?

Discomfort Measurement on a Visual Analogue Scale (time frame: 15 minutes 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 6 Mar 2018.
