What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum drug concentration (Cmax) of lacosamide in plasma.

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  2. Area under the curve from 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-t)) of lacosamide in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  3. Area under the curve from 0 to infinity (AUC) of lacosamide in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

Secondary outcomes (17)

  4. Apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F) of lacosamide in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  5. Mean resident time (MRT) of lacosamide in plasma.

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  6. First order terminal elimination rate constant (λZ ) of lacosamide in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  7. Maximum drug concentration (Cmax) of SPM12809 in plasma.

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  8. Area under the curve from 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-t)) of SPM12809 in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  9. Area under the curve from 0 to infinity (AUC) of SPM12809 in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  10. Time to reach maximum plasma concentration (tmax) of SPM12809 in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  11. Terminal half-life (t½) of SPM12809 in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  12. First order terminal elimination rate constant (λZ ) of SPM12809 in plasma

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  13. Total amount of drug excreted in urine (Ae) of lacosamide and SPM12809

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  14. Fraction of dose excreted in urine (fe) of lacosamide and SPM12809

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  15. Renal clearance (CLR) of lacosamide and SPM12809

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  16. Apparent formation clearance of metabolites (CLfm/F)

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

  17. AUC Ratio

    Measured: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lacosamide in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by UCB Pharma at 1 site in Germany.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 23 Aug 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 Germany. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Maximum drug concentration (Cmax) of lacosamide in plasma. (time frame: Multiple sampling from 0 to 72 hours following single dose in each treatment period). The study lists 3 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 23 Aug 2011.
