About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open Label, Balanced, Two-Treatment, Two-Period, Two-Sequence, Single Dose, Crossover, Bioequivalence Study of Carvedilol Tablets USP 12.5 mg With Coreg® 12.5 mg in Normal, Healthy, Adult, Human Subjects Under Fasting Condition.

This is a randomized, open Label, balanced, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence, single dose, cross over pivotal study. The purpose of this study is to assess the bioequivalence between Test Product and the corresponding Reference Product under fasting condition in normal, healthy, adult, human subjects.

Read the detailed description

Objective of this pivotal study was to assess the bioequivalence between Test Product: Carvedilol Tablets USP 12.5 mg of M/s Ipca Laboratories Limited, India and the corresponding Reference Product: Coreg® (Carvedilol Tablets) 12.5 mg Tablets of M/s GlaxoSmithKline, under fasting condition in normal, healthy, adult, human subjects in a randomized crossover study.

The study was conducted with 42 healthy adult subjects. In each study period, a single 12.5 mg dose of either test or reference was administered to the subjects as per the randomization schedule in each study period with about 240 mL of water at ambient temperature in sitting position.

The duration of the clinical phase was approximately 11 days including washout period of at least 7 days between administrations of study drug in each study period.

What is being measured

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

  1. Bioequivalence is based on Cmax and AUC parameters.Sampling Hours: Pre-dose and at 00.50, 00.75, 01.00, 01.25, 01.50, 01.75, 02.00, 02.50, 03.00, 04.00, 05.00, 06.00, 08.00, 09.00, 10.00, 12.00, 16.00, 20.00, 24.00, 36.00 and 48.00 hours post-dose.

    Bioequivalence was concluded if:

    The 90% confidence interval of geometric mean ratio of Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-inf between test and reference product fall within the range of 80.00 % to 125.00 % for Carvedilol.

    Measured: 5 months

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 11 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed 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?

Bioequivalence is based on Cmax and AUC parameters.Sampling Hours: Pre-dose and at 00.50, 00.75, 01.00, 01.25, 01.50, 01.75, 02.00, 02.50, 03.00, 04.00, 05.00, 06.00, 08.00, 09.00, 10.00, 12.00, 16.00, 20.00, 24.00, 36.00 and 48.00 hours post-dose. (time frame: 5 months). 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 9 Jul 2012.
