About this study

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

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effect of multiple doses of isavuconazole on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of methadone after single dose administration. The secondary purpose is to assess the safety and tolerability of isavuconazole alone and in combination with methadone.

Study groups in NCT01582425
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Isavuconazole and methadoneExperimentalSingle dose of methadone on Days 1 and 20, isavuconazole 3 times a day (TID) on Days 16-17 as a loading dose, isavuconazole once a day (QD) on Days 18-28
Receives: Drug: Isavuconazole; Drug: Methadone

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite of pharmacokinetics (PK) of plasma for R-methadone and S-methadone: AUClast, AUCinf, and Cmax

    Area under the curve (AUC) from time of dosing to last quantifiable concentration (AUClast ), AUC from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf), maximum concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Days 1 and 20

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Composite of pharmacokinetics (PK) of plasma for R-methadone and S-methadone : tmax,t1/2, Vz/F, and CL/F

    Time to attain Cmax (tmax) , apparent terminal elimination half-life (t1/2), apparent volume of distribution (Vz /F), and apparent body clearance after oral dosing (CL/F)

    Measured: Days 1 and 20

  2. PK of plasma isavuconazole: trough concentration (Ctrough)

    Measured: Days 18 and Days 21 through 29

  3. Composite of PK of plasma isavuconazole: AUC during the time interval between consecutive dosing (AUCtau), Cmax, and tmax

    Measured: Days 19 and 20

  4. Safety assessed by recording of adverse events, laboratory evaluations, electrocardiograms (ECGs) and vital signs

    Measured: Up to Day 36

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Isavuconazole and Methadone in people with Pharmacokinetics of Isavuconazole and Pharmacokinetics of Methadone, run by Astellas Pharma Global Development, 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 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 2 Jul 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 pharmacokinetics (PK) of plasma for R-methadone and S-methadone: AUClast, AUCinf, and Cmax (time frame: Days 1 and 20). 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 2 Jul 2012.
