What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve 0-24 hours for rifampin

    Measured: Sampling for 24 hr dosing:Dose 1:0-15min,30-60min,1-3hr,3-6hr, 6-12hr,12-18hr. Dose 2,3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 48-72hrs. Sampling for 12 hr dosing:Dose 1: 0-15min, 0.5-1hr, 1-2hr, 2-4hr, 5-8hr, 8-10 hr. Dose 2, 3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 24-36hr

  2. Peak plasma concentration of rifampin

    Measured: Sampling for 24 hr dosing:Dose 1:0-15min,30-60min,1-3hr,3-6hr, 6-12hr,12-18hr. Dose 2,3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 48-72hrs. Sampling for 12 hr dosing:Dose 1: 0-15min, 0.5-1hr, 1-2hr, 2-4hr, 5-8hr, 8-10 hr. Dose 2, 3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 24-36hr

  3. Clearance of rifampin

    Measured: Sampling for 24 hr dosing:Dose 1:0-15min,30-60min,1-3hr,3-6hr, 6-12hr,12-18hr. Dose 2,3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 48-72hrs. Sampling for 12 hr dosing:Dose 1: 0-15min, 0.5-1hr, 1-2hr, 2-4hr, 5-8hr, 8-10 hr. Dose 2, 3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 24-36hr

  4. Volume of distribution at steady state

    Measured: Sampling for 24 hr dosing:Dose 1:0-15min,30-60min,1-3hr,3-6hr, 6-12hr,12-18hr. Dose 2,3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 48-72hrs. Sampling for 12 hr dosing:Dose 1: 0-15min, 0.5-1hr, 1-2hr, 2-4hr, 5-8hr, 8-10 hr. Dose 2, 3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 24-36hr

  5. Half life of rifampin

    Measured: Sampling for 24 hr dosing:Dose 1:0-15min,30-60min,1-3hr,3-6hr, 6-12hr,12-18hr. Dose 2,3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 48-72hrs. Sampling for 12 hr dosing:Dose 1: 0-15min, 0.5-1hr, 1-2hr, 2-4hr, 5-8hr, 8-10 hr. Dose 2, 3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 24-36hr

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of subjects with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability.

    Measured: From the time of the first dose to 3 days after the last dose; serious adverse events will be collected from the first dose of rifampin to 7 days after the last dose of rifampin.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing rifampin in people with Infection, run by University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill at 1 site 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 0 inclusion and 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2012. 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Study to be redesigned.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve 0-24 hours for rifampin (time frame: Sampling for 24 hr dosing:Dose 1:0-15min,30-60min,1-3hr,3-6hr, 6-12hr,12-18hr. Dose 2,3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 48-72hrs. Sampling for 12 hr dosing:Dose 1: 0-15min, 0.5-1hr, 1-2hr, 2-4hr, 5-8hr, 8-10 hr. Dose 2, 3 or 4:<15min prior to dose, 24-36hr). The study lists 5 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 14 Sep 2012.
