About this study

Official title: Importance of Age as Covariable in the Requirements to Determine the Drug Plasma -Site Effect Equilibration Time for TCI Propofol Pharmacokinetic Models

This study obtains an effect site model for White (Modified Marsh) pharmacokinetic propofol model. The plasma effect-site rate constant (ke0) obtained is affected by age.

Read the detailed description

In the Target Controlled Infusion pumps the first order plasma-effect-site steady-state rate constant (ke0) links the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) for a given drug and it is used to predict the course of the effect and to calculate a theoretical drug concentration at the effect site. The PK model for propofol recently published by White et al. (derived from the Marsh model used by the Diprifusor®) include covariate as age and gender to describe the pharmacokinetics but does not incorporate a ke0.

Methods: 45 healthy adult patients will be scheduled for elective surgery with standard monitoring and BIS XP (Aspect) will received a White PK model-driven plasma target controlled infusion of propofol ( 12 ugml-1 or 10 ugml-1 over 65 years) to be reached in 4 min. After reaching the target, the infusion will be stopped obtaining a complete effect curve upon patient awakening. Calculated plasma concentration and EEG data were stored every one second. Loss (LOC) and recovery (ROC) of consciousness were assessed and recorded. The dynamic relationship between propofol Ce and its effect as measured by BIS will be modeled with an inhibitory Emax model using a population PK/PD approach with NONMEM V.

the Study take around 12 min.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • evaluation of propofol effect using BISDrug

    Also called evaluation of effect of intravenous di-isopropilfenol

    propofol administered in target controlled infusion using the pharmacokinetic model of White

Study groups in NCT01586013
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
propofol infusionExperimentalHealthy adults scheduled for elective surgery will receive a computer controlled infusion until obtain the loss of counsiousness (BIS <50). After stoping the infusion we observe the emergency of anesthesia and the correspondant BIS curve. Using the complete loss and recovery curve of BIS we can describe the course of the effect of the drug. Venous sample will be taken during the study to evaluate the pharmacokinetic performance of the model.

What is being measured

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

  1. pharmacodynamic model for the White propofol pharmacokinetic

    Using a propofol target controlled infusion using de White propofol model, we evaluate a complete curve of depression and recovery of the BIS

    Measured: Bispectral index

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing evaluation of propofol effect using BIS in people with Healthy, run by Universidad del Desarrollo at 1 site in Chile.

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 1 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 26 Apr 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 Chile. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

pharmacodynamic model for the White propofol pharmacokinetic (time frame: Bispectral index). 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 NCT01586013, 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 26 Apr 2012.
