Trial summary

This study will determine if aspirin from PL2200, an investigational product, gets into the blood stream as quickly as plain aspirin and enteric coated aspirin, and to test whether PL2200 is able to prevent blood clots as effectively as these other products, when administered to patients with diabetes.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Actively Controlled, Crossover Pharmacodynamic Evaluation of PL2200 Versus Enteric-Coated and Immediate Release Aspirin in Patients With Type II Diabetes

This study will determine if aspirin from PL2200, an investigational product, gets into the blood stream as quickly as plain aspirin and enteric coated aspirin, and to test whether PL2200 is able to prevent blood clots as effectively as these other products, when administered to patients with diabetes.

Being tested
PL2200 Aspirin Capsules, Immediate-Release Aspirin Tablets, Enteric-coated aspirin caplets
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to 99% Inhibition of Serum Thromboxane (TxB2)

    Aspirin's antiplatelet activity is measured by the capacity of platelets to generate serum thromboxane (a surrogate marker for inhibition of COX-1 by aspirin). Inhibition of serum thromboxane is a key marker of antiplatelet efficacy.

    Measured: 4 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing PL2200 Aspirin Capsules, Immediate-Release Aspirin Tablets and Enteric-coated aspirin caplets in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by PLx Pharma 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 14 Mar 2016. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

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

Time to 99% Inhibition of Serum Thromboxane (TxB2) (time frame: 4 days). 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 NCT01515657, 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 14 Mar 2016.
