What is being measured

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

  1. Bioavailability - Area under Curve of pH at 2 hours

    To assess the relative bioavailability of two immediate release formulations of omeprazole/sodium carbonate (Zegerid 20mg capsule and Zegerid 20mg powder for oral suspension)

    Measured: 2 hours

  2. Pharmacodynamics - Area under Curve of pH at 2 hours

    To assess the relative pharmacodynamic profiles of two immediate release formulations of omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate (Zegerid® 20mg capsule and Zegerid® 20mg powder for oral suspension).

    Measured: 2 hours

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Safety and tolerability of study formulations using measurements of Cmax, tmax and t1/2

    To assess the safety and tolerability of these three formulations after single dose oral administration. To include measurements of Cmax, tmax and t1/2

  2. Bioavailability - measurement of pH over time

    To assess the relative bioavailability of an immediate release formulation of omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate (Zegerid 20mg capsule) and a delayed-release omeprazole capsule (Losec 20mg) after single dose oral administration in a fasted state. AUC of pH and % of time for pH to raise above 4 (0.5, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours)

    Measured: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours

  3. Bioavailability - measurement of pH over time

    To assess the relative bioavailability of an immediate release formulation of omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate (Zegerid 20mg powder for oral suspension) and a delayed-release omeprazole capsule (Losec 20mg) after single dose oral administration in a fasted state. AUC of pH and % of time for pH to raise above 4 (0.5, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours)

    Measured: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours

  4. Pharmacodynamic Measurements of Cmax, Tmax and t1/2

    To assess the relative pharmacodynamic profiles of an immediate release formulation of omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate (Zegerid 20mg capsule) and a delayed-release omeprazole capsule (Losec 20mg) after single dose oral administration in a fasted state.

    Measured: Pre-dose on day 1, and at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and 24 hours post-dose

  5. Pharmacodynamic measurements of Cmax, Tmax and t1/2

    To assess the relative pharmacodynamic profiles of an immediate release formulation of omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate (Zegerid 20mg powder for oral suspension) and a delayed-release omeprazole capsule (Losec 20mg) after single dose oral administration in a fasted state

    Measured: Pre-dose on day 1, and at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and 24 hours post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Zegerid and Losec in people with Acid Reflux and Gastro Oesophageal Reflux Disease, run by Norgine at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 21 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 19 Oct 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 Kingdom. 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?

Bioavailability - Area under Curve of pH at 2 hours (time frame: 2 hours). 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 19 Oct 2012.
