About this study

Official title: A Single-Dose, Open-Label, Randomized, 4-Way Crossover Study to Assess the Effect of Timing of Food Intake on the Pharmacokinetics of Abiraterone Following Single-Dose Administration of Abiraterone Acetate Tablets in Healthy Caucasian and Japanese Male Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of timing of food intake on systemic abiraterone exposure observed in healthy adult Japanese and Caucasian men.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized (individuals will be assigned by chance to study treatments), open-label (individuals will know the identity of study treatments), single dose, 4-way crossover study of abiraterone acetate in approximately 48 healthy adult Japanese and Caucasian men. For the crossover design, the treatment sequences are defined as follows: 1 - ADBC, 2 - BACD, 3 - CBDA, and 4 - DCAB; where Treatment A = abiraterone acetate administered in the fasted state, Treatment B = standardized meal administered 1 hour after abiraterone acetate dose, Treatment C = standardized meal administered 2 hours after abiraterone acetate dose, and Treatment D = standardized meal administered 2 hours before and 2 hours after abiraterone acetate dose. This study will consist of a screening period followed by four open-label treatment periods separated by a washout period of at least 14 days between dosing. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned on Day 1 to 1 of 4 treatment sequences that differ with regard to timing of food intake before and/or after dosing with a single dose of 1000 mg of abiraterone acetate. Serial pharmacokinetic (study of what the body does to a drug) samples will be collected during the open-label treatment phase as detailed in the protocol. Safety will be monitored throughout the study. End-of-study assessments will be performed on Day 4 of Period 4 or upon early withdrawal.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in mean plasma concentrations of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Mean plasma concentrations of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  2. Maximum plasma concentration of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  3. Time to reach the maximum plasma concentration of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  4. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to time the last quantifiable concentration of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  5. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinite time of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  6. Elimination half-life associated with the terminal slope of the semilogarithmic drug concentration-time curve of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  7. First-order rate constant associated with the terminal portion of the curve of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  8. Time to last quantifiable plasma concentration of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  9. Percentage of area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinite time obtained by extrapolation of abiraterone

    Measured: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4

  10. The number of participants affected by an adverse event

    Measured: Up to the end of the study (4 days after final dose of study drug) or early withdrawal

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Abiraterone: Treatment A, Abiraterone: Treatment B and Abiraterone: Treatment C in people with Pharmacology, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC 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 6 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 10 Jan 2014. 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?

Changes in mean plasma concentrations of abiraterone (time frame: Up to Day 4, treatment period 4). 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 NCT01575587, 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 10 Jan 2014.
