About this study

Official title: A Single-Dose, Open-Label, Randomized Study of the Comparative Pharmacokinetics of Sublingual TNX-102 2.4 mg at pH 3.5 and 7.1, Oral Cyclobenzaprine 5 mg Tablets, and Intravenous Cyclobenzaprine 2.4 mg in Healthy Adults

Very low dose (VLD) cyclobenzaprine at bedtime has shown promise as a treatment for fibromyalgia, but the chemistry of cyclobenzaprine requires new formulation technology for bedtime use. The present trial is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of sublingual TNX-102 2.4 mg (a new formulation of cyclobenzaprine designed to result in increased dosage precision and decreased potential for morning grogginess) at pH 3.5 and 7.1 and to compare the bio-availability of sublingual TNX-102 2.4 mg at pH 3.5 and 7.1 and cyclobenzaprine (5 mg tablets, or 2.4 mg iv).

Conditions
Healthy Adults
Being tested
SL TNX-102 2.4 mg at pH 3.5, SL TNX-102 2.4 mg at pH 7.1, Cyclobenzaprine Tablet, Cyclobenzaprine IV

What is being measured

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

  1. • Measured levels of cyclobenzaprine and norcyclobenzaprine in plasma and urine

    Blood samples will be taken per period: within 30 minutes pre-dose and 2, 3.5, 5, 10, 20, 30, and 45 minutes and 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.33, 3.67, 4, 4.33, 4.67, 5, 5.5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, and 72 hours post-dose. A single urine sample will be collected within 30 minutes pre-dose (one sample), and urine will be pooled from 0-24, 24-48 and 48-72 hours post-dose.

    Measured: 27 time points per period for blood assessment ; 3 pooled analyses in urine.

  2. Safety and tolerability of sublingual TNX-102 2.4 mg at pH 3.5 and pH 7.1.

    Every adverse events occurring during the study period will be reported.

    Measured: Continuously until the end (day 4) of the study period + Telephone follow-up 7-13 days after dosing (total duration: about 1 month)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SL TNX-102 2.4 mg at pH 3.5, SL TNX-102 2.4 mg at pH 7.1 and Cyclobenzaprine Tablet in people with Healthy Adults, run by Tonix Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 1 site in Canada.

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 8 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 Sep 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 Canada. 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?

• Measured levels of cyclobenzaprine and norcyclobenzaprine in plasma and urine (time frame: 27 time points per period for blood assessment ; 3 pooled analyses in urine.). The study lists 2 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 26 Sep 2014.
