What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax of favipiravir

    The PK parameters for favipiravir and its metabolite in hepatically impaired adult subjects relative to healthy adult subjects matched for age, weight, gender, and race status on Day 1 and on Day 5.

    Measured: predose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 5

  2. AUC of favipiravir

    The PK parameters for favipiravir and its metabolite in hepatically impaired adult subjects relative to healthy adult subjects matched for age, weight, gender, and race status on Day 1 and on Day 5.

    Measured: predose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 5

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. vital signs

    Measured: 13 days

  2. electrocardiograms [ECGs]

    Measured: 13 days

  3. clinical laboratory assessment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Favipiravir in people with Healthy and Hepatic Impairment, run by MDVI, LLC at 2 sites in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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 22 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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 of favipiravir (time frame: predose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 5). The study lists 2 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 22 Oct 2015.
