About this study

Official title: A Single-Dose, Open-Label, Randomized, Crossover Dose Proportionality Study to Evaluate the Effect of Dose on the Pharmacokinetics of 8, 16, 32 and 64 mg OROS Hydromorphone Under Fasted Conditions in Healthy Adult Taiwanese Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of OROS Hydromorphone in healthy adult Taiwanese participants after oral administration of 4 different dose strengths of 8, 16, 32 and 64 mg under fasted conditions.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, randomized (study drug assigned by chance like flipping a coin), open-label (all people involved know the identity of the intervention), 4-way crossover (participants receive different interventions sequentially during the trial) study in healthy adult Taiwanese participants. All participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of the 4 different possible treatment sequences and will receive all treatments in the order specified by the randomization schedule. The study consists of a screening phase, an open-label treatment phase consisting of 4 single-dose treatment periods, and end-of-study or withdrawal assessments. During the open-label treatment periods, the participants will stay in the center until completion of the 72-hour pharmacokinetics [PK] (how the drug is absorbed in the body, distributed within the body, and how it is removed from the body over time) blood sample on Day 4. A 7- to 14-day washout period (period when receiving no treatment) will separate the open-label treatment periods. The safety and tolerability will be evaluated over the investigated dose range. The duration of participation in the study for an individual participant will be approximately 12 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma hydromorphone concentrations

    Sequential blood samples are collected over 72 hours during each treatment period. The study has a total of four 5-day treatment periods. The treatment periods are separated by a 7- to 14-day washout period.

    Measured: 20 time points up to 72 hours post-dose

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

    Measured: Approximately 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Treatment A: Hydromorphone 8 mg, Treatment B: Hydromorphone 16 mg and Treatment C: Hydromorphone 32 mg in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C. at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 16 Nov 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 Taiwan. 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?

Plasma hydromorphone concentrations (time frame: 20 time points up to 72 hours post-dose). 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 16 Nov 2012.
