About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Single-centre, Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of Two Different Extended Release Formulations of Tablets of AZD3241 (300 mg) After Administration of Multiple Doses in Healthy Male and Female Volunteers

To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of AZD3241 following multiple administration of 2 new, different extended release formulations of tablets of AZD3241 (300 mg), in relation to the 100 mg extended release tablet used in a previous study and potential food interaction. The safety and tolerability of AZD 3241 will also be investigated as a secondary objective. In addition to these a number of exploratory objectives will be investigated with blood sampling.

What is being measured

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

  1. AUC(0-12),ss: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the end of the 12-hour dosing interval at steady state.

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

  2. AUC(0-12),ss/DN: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the end of the 12-hour dosing interval at steady state observed with the 300 mg ER formulations normalised to a 100 mg dose of AZD3241

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

  3. Css,max: Observed maximum plasma concentration at steady state.Css,max/DN Observed maximum plasma concentration at steady state observed with the 300 mg ER formulations normalised to a 100 mg dose of AZD3241.

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

  4. Css,min: Observed minimum plasma concentration at steady state.Css,min/DN Observed minimum plasma concentration at steady state observed with the 300 mg ER formulations normalised to a 100 mg dose of AZD3241.

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

  5. Css,av: Average plasma concentration during the 12-hour dosing interval at steady state calculated as follows: AUC(0-12),ss/12 h.

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

  6. Description of fluctuation at steady-state [(Css,max-Css,min)/Css,av]

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

  7. AUC(0-t),ss: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the last quantifiable time point.

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

  8. λz,ss: Terminal elimination rate constant at steady state.

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

  9. t½λz,ss: Half-life of terminal elimination phase at steady state.

    Measured: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Description of the safety and tolerability profile in terms of Adverse Events of 8 days of administration of AZD3241, up to steady state (300 mg twice daily), of 2 new, different extended release tablets of AZD3241 (300 mg), including initial titration.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD3241 ER formulation 1 and AZD3241 Alternative titration scheme with formulation 1 or 2 in people with Parkinson's Disease, run by AstraZeneca at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 17 Aug 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 Kingdom. 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?

AUC(0-12),ss: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the end of the 12-hour dosing interval at steady state. (time frame: Day 1 until 24 hours post last dose (administered on the morning of Day 8)). The study lists 9 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 17 Aug 2012.
