About this study

Official title: Effect of Multiple Doses of Isavuconazole on the Pharmacokinetics of a Single Dose of Tacrolimus: A Phase 1, Open Label, Sequential Study in Healthy Adult Subjects

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of multiple doses of isavuconazole on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of tacrolimus after single dose administration.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will receive a single dose of tacrolimus on Day 1 followed by a 15 day wash-out period (time from tacrolimus dosing to isavuconazole dosing).

On Days 16 and 17, isavuconazole will be dosed three times daily (TID). TID doses will be administered 8 hours apart. On Days 18 through 28 isavuconazole will be administered once daily (QD). All subjects will be administered a single dose of tacrolimus on Day 20. A follow up visit will occur approximately 7 days after the last dose of isavuconazole. Blood samples for pharmacokinetics will be collected throughout the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite of Pharmacokinetic (PK) variables for tacrolimus (in whole blood) : AUClast , AUCinf, Cmax, tmax , Vz /F, CL/F and t1/2

    Area under the curve (AUC) from time of dosing to last quantifiable concentration (AUClast ), AUC from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf), and maximum concentration (Cmax), time to attain Cmax (tmax) , apparent volume of distribution (Vz /F), apparent body clearance after oral dosing (CL/F) and apparent terminal elimination half-life (t1/2 ).

    Measured: Days 1 and 20

  2. PK variable for isavuconazole (in plasma): trough concentration (Ctrough)

    Measured: Days 18 and Days 22 through 29

  3. Composite of PK variable for isavuconazole (in plasma): trough concentration (Ctrough), AUC during the time interval between consecutive dosing (AUCtau), maximum concentration (Cmax),and time to attain Cmax (tmax)

    Measured: Days 19 and 20

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing isavuconazole and tacrolimus in people with Pharmacokinetics of Isavuconazole and Pharmacokinetics of Tacrolimus, run by Astellas Pharma Inc 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 6 inclusion and 15 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 Feb 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 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?

Composite of Pharmacokinetic (PK) variables for tacrolimus (in whole blood) : AUClast , AUCinf, Cmax, tmax , Vz /F, CL/F and t1/2 (time frame: Days 1 and 20). The study lists 3 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 Feb 2012.
