Study population: healthy subjects

Who may be able to join

About this study

Official title: Influence of OATP1B1 and CYP2C9 Genotypes on the Pharmacokinetics of Steady State Bosentan Before and During CYP3A4-inhibition by Clarithromycin

The aim of the present study is to assess the impact of the OATP1B1 genotype (SLCO1B1*15 vs. wild type; ~2% SLCO1B1*15 haplotypes in Caucasian population) and the CYP2C9 genotype (*2 and *3 allele vs. wild type; ~5% poor metabolisers in Caucasian population) on the pharmacokinetics of bosentan and the impact of CYP3A4-inhibition by clarithromycin on steady state bosentan which is a CYP3A4 inducer itself.

This study will focus on differential effects of genotypes and co-medication on the pharmacokinetics of bosentan at the metabolic and transport level. Participants will be genotyped for CYP2C9 (inclusion criterion), OATP1B1 (inclusion criterion), and CYP3A5 (no inclusion criterion).

  • BosentanDrug

    Also called Tracleer

    • Administration of bosentan: 1 x 125 mg p.o. on day 1, 2 x 125 mg p.o. on day 2-14

What is being measured

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

  1. AUC

    Measured: 0-infinity; dosing interval

  2. Cmax

    Cmax after the first dose of bosentan, at steady-state, during clarithromycin

    Measured: after first dose, at steady-state, during clarithromycin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Drug Interactions, run by Gerd Mikus 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 7 inclusion and 12 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 31 May 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 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Aug 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?

AUC (time frame: 0-infinity; dosing interval). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01425229, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 31 May 2017.
