Trial summary

This study is designed to assess prototype formulations compared to the aqueous dispersion of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient used in Phase I and Phase IIa studies to date. It is hoped that the bioavailability of OZ439 can be enhanced in the fasted state to be close to that observed when given after food. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study To Investigate The Relative Bioavailability of OZ439 Formulations In Healthy Volunteers

This study is designed to assess prototype formulations compared to the aqueous dispersion of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient used in Phase I and Phase IIa studies to date. It is hoped that the bioavailability of OZ439 can be enhanced in the fasted state to be close to that observed when given after food. This will improve the utility of OZ439 in the field as well as decreasing the cost of treatment (by decreasing the dose of OZ439 required) which is very important for an antimalarial drug product destined for use in developing counties.

Read the detailed description

This study was a single centre, open-label, pharmacokinetic, randomized cross-over study in healthy male volunteers and post-menopausal women. This study was conducted over three different cohorts as follows:

Cohort 1: Subjects received a single 800 mg (as free base) dose of five different treatment regimes (treatments A, B, C, D and E) on five occasions.

Cohort 2: Subjects received a single 800 mg (as free base) dose of four different treatment regimes (treatments F, G, H and I) on four occasions.

Cohort 3: Subjects received a single dose, 800mg (as free base) of prototype solution formulation 1 (treatment J) and 400mg (as free base) of prototype solution formulation 1 (treatment K) on two occasions. The treatments were administered under the fasted state.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing OZ439 mesylate 800mg Powder in Bottle for Oral Suspension, OZ439 mesylate 400mg Prototype Solution Formula 1 and OZ439 mesylate 800mg Prototype Solution Formula 1 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Medicines for Malaria Venture at 1 site in Australia.

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 8 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 29 Jan 2015. 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 Australia. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Jan 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

OZ439 Cmax (time frame: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 168 hours post dosing). 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 29 Jan 2015.
