About this study

Official title: Open Label, 2-Way Crossover Study to Assess the PK of Intranasal Ketorolac Tromethamine and to Assess the Effects of a Single Dose of Oxymetazoline Hydrochloride on the PK of Intranasal Ketorolac Tromethamine in Healthy Male Subjects

This was an open label, two way crossover study in healthy male subjects. Two treatments were administered to each subject, one treatment per study period, in a randomized manner. Subjects remained resident in the Clinical Unit from the evening of Day 1 until the morning of Day 2 of each period and there was a washout period of at least 2 days between treatments. A post study medical examination was performed prior to discharge in Period 2.

The objective of this study was to assess the effects of a single dose of intranasal oxymetazoline hydrochloride on the pharmacokinetics of intranasal ketorolac in healthy male subjects.

Being tested
Ketorolac tromethamine, Oxymetazoline hydrochloride

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ketorolac tromethamineDrug

    30 mg of intranasal ketorolac tromethamine (one 100 µL spray into each nostril of a 15%, pH 7.2 solution)

  • Oxymetazoline hydrochlorideDrug

    Single intranasal dose of oxymetazoline hydrochloride (Afrazine®) (3 sprays of a 0.05% solution into each nostril) followed 30 minutes later by 30 mg of intranasal ketorolac tromethamine (one 100 µL spray into each nostril of a 15%, pH 7.2 solution)

What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax (the maximum observed plasma concentration)

    Pharmacokinetic analysis by standard model independent methods was performed by a pharmacokineticist using WinNonlin Professional. Actual blood sampling times for ketorolac assay were converted to a time from dosing (elapsed time). Elapsed times were listed by subject for each treatment, together with the individual plasma concentrations of ketorolac.

    Measured: All PK parameters were assessed using blood samples collected pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours post-dose

  2. Tmax (the time to maximum concentration)

    Pharmacokinetic analysis by standard model independent methods was performed by a pharmacokineticist using WinNonlin Professional. Actual blood sampling times for ketorolac assay were converted to a time from dosing (elapsed time). Elapsed times were listed by subject for each treatment, together with the individual plasma concentrations of ketorolac.

    Measured: All PK parameters were assessed using blood samples collected pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours post-dose

  3. AUC 0-t (the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time zero to the last quantifiable time point post-dose

    Pharmacokinetic analysis by standard model independent methods was performed by a pharmacokineticist using WinNonlin Professional. Actual blood sampling times for ketorolac assay were converted to a time from dosing (elapsed time). Elapsed times were listed by subject for each treatment, together with the individual plasma concentrations of ketorolac.

    Measured: All PK parameters were assessed using blood samples collected pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours post-dose

  4. AUCinf (the AUC from time zero to infinity, where possible

    Pharmacokinetic analysis by standard model independent methods was performed by a pharmacokineticist using WinNonlin Professional. Actual blood sampling times for ketorolac assay were converted to a time from dosing (elapsed time). Elapsed times were listed by subject for each treatment, together with the individual plasma concentrations of ketorolac.

    Measured: All PK parameters were assessed using blood samples collected pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours post-dose

  5. t1/2z (the terminal half-life, where possible

    Pharmacokinetic analysis by standard model independent methods was performed by a pharmacokineticist using WinNonlin Professional. Actual blood sampling times for ketorolac assay were converted to a time from dosing (elapsed time). Elapsed times were listed by subject for each treatment, together with the individual plasma concentrations of ketorolac.

    Measured: All PK parameters were assessed using blood samples collected pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours post-dose

  6. MRT (the mean residence time)

    Pharmacokinetic analysis by standard model independent methods was performed by a pharmacokineticist using WinNonlin Professional. Actual blood sampling times for ketorolac assay were converted to a time from dosing (elapsed time). Elapsed times were listed by subject for each treatment, together with the individual plasma concentrations of ketorolac.

    Measured: All PK parameters were assessed using blood samples collected pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ketorolac tromethamine and Oxymetazoline hydrochloride in people with Assess Pharmacokinetics of Ketorolac Tromethamine Intranasal and Assess Effects of a Oxymetazoline Hydrochloride on the PK of Ketorolac Tromethamine, 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 9 inclusion and 20 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 9 Feb 2017. 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?

Cmax (the maximum observed plasma concentration) (time frame: All PK parameters were assessed using blood samples collected pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours post-dose). The study lists 6 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 9 Feb 2017.
