About this study

Official title: Randomized, Open-Label, 2-Way Crossover, Bioequivalence Study of Desloratadine and Pseudoephedrine 5 mg/240 mg Extended-Release Tablet and Clarinex-D® 24-Hour (Reference) Following a 5 mg/240 mg Dose in Healthy Subjects Under Fasting Conditions

This is an open label randomised, 2-way crossover, comparative bioequivalence study.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study was to compare the rate and extent of absorption of Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Ltd., India, desloratadine-pseudoephedrine and Schering Corporation, U.S.A.(Clarinex-D® 24-HOUR), desloratadine-pseudoephedrine, administered as a 1 x 5 mg/240 mg extended-release tablet under fasting conditions. The treatment phases were separated by a washout period of 14 days. 34 subjects(19 males and 15 females) were dosed and were enrolled in the study; 31 of these enrolled subjects completed the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Desloratadine and pseudoephedrine in people with Healthy, run by Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Limited at 1 site in Canada.

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 29 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 14 Jun 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 Canada. 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?

Bioequivalence based on Cmax and AUC parameters (time frame: 3 months). 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 14 Jun 2011.
