About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-Label Study in Healthy Subjects to Explore the Potential for a Pharmacokinetic Interaction Between Steady-State Rilpivirine and a Single Dose Of Metformin

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of steady-state (constant concentration of medication in the blood) rilpivirine on pharmacokinetics (how a single dose of metformin is absorbed in the body, distributed within the body, and removed from the body) of a single dose of metformin, over time, in healthy adult participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase I, open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention) and sequential study (study medication is given in a sequence) in healthy participants, to investigate the pharmacokinetic interaction between steady-state rilpivirine and a single dose of metformin. The study consists of 3 phases including, the screening phase (28 days before enrollment), treatment phase (19 days), and the follow-up phase (7 days after the last intake of study medication). All participants will receive study medications in two sessions in a fixed, sequential order as a session 1 (a single dose of metformin on Day 1) followed by washout period (period when no treatment is received) of 4 days and then session 2 (rilpivirine on Day 5 to Day 17 with a single dose of metformin on Day 15). The duration of the study is approximately 54 days. Safety evaluations including adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, electrocardiogram, vital signs, and physical examination (including skin examination) will be monitored throughout the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum observed plasma analyte concentration (Cmax) of metformin

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 15

  2. Actual sampling time to reach the maximum plasma analyte concentration (tmax) of metformin

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 15

  3. Area under curve from time of administration up to the last time point with a measurable plasma analyte concentration after dosing (AUClast) of metformin

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 15

  4. AUC extrapolated to infinity of metformin

    AUC extrapolated to infinity, calculated as AUClast + Clast/apparent terminal elimination rate constant, where Clast is the last measurable plasma analyte concentration; extrapolations of more than 20 percent of the total AUC are reported as approximations.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 15

  5. Apparent terminal elimination rate constant of metformin

    Apparent terminal elimination rate constant will be estimated by linear regression using the terminal log-linear phase of the logarithmic transformed conentration versus time data.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 15

  6. Apparent terminal elimination half-life of metformin

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 15

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Predose plasma analyte concentration (C0h) of rilpivirine

    Measured: Day 12, Day 13, Day 14, Day 15, Day 17, Day 18

  2. Minimum observed plasma analyte concentration (Cmin) of rilpivirine

    Measured: Day 15

  3. Maximum observed plasma analyte concentration (Cmax) of rilpivirine

    Measured: Day 15

  4. Actual sampling time to reach the maximum plasma analyte concentration (tmax) of rilpivirine

    Measured: Day 15

  5. Observed plasma analyte concentration at the end of the 24-hour dosing interval (C24h)

    Measured: Day 15

  6. AUC from time of administration up to 24 hours after administration (AUC24h)

    Measured: Day 15

  7. Average steady-state plasma concentration (Css,av)

    Css,av is calculated by AUC dosing interval/dosing interval at steady-state

    Measured: Day 15

  8. Fluctuation index (FI)

    FI, percentage fluctuation is variation between maximum and minimum plasma concentration at steady-state

    Measured: Day 15

  9. Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: Up to 54 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Metformin and Rilpivirine in people with Healthy Participants, run by Janssen R&D Ireland 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 6 Mar 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 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?

Maximum observed plasma analyte concentration (Cmax) of metformin (time frame: Day 1 and Day 15). The study lists 6 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 6 Mar 2014.
