What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to 12 Hours [AUC (0-12)] for CP-690,550

    AUC (0-12)= area under the plasma concentration time-curve from time zero (pre-dose) to 12 hours (0-12).

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 12 hours post-dose on Day 6 and Day 7

  2. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for CP-690,550

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 12 hours post-dose on Day 6 and Day 7

  3. Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast) for Methotrexate (MTX)

    Area under the plasma concentration time-curve from zero to the last measured concentration (AUClast).

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 and 48 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 7

  4. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for Methotrexate (MTX)

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8,12, 24 and 48 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 7

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax) for CP-690,550

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 12 hours post-dose on Day 6 and Day 7

  2. Plasma Decay Half-Life (t1/2) for CP-690,550

    Plasma decay half-life is the time measured for the plasma concentration of CP-690,550 to decrease by one half.

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 12 hours post-dose on Day 6 and Day 7

  3. Apparent Oral Clearance (CL/F) for CP-690,550

    Clearance of a drug is a measure of the rate at which a drug is metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes. Clearance obtained after oral dose (apparent oral clearance) is influenced by the fraction of the dose absorbed. Clearance was estimated from population PK modeling. Drug clearance is a quantitative measure of the rate at which a drug substance is removed from the blood.

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 12 hours post-dose on Day 6 and Day 7

  4. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax) for Methotrexate (MTX)

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8 ,12, 24 and 48 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 7

  5. Plasma Decay Half-Life (t1/2) for Methotrexate (MTX)

    Plasma decay half-life is the time measured for the plasma concentration of MTX to decrease by one half.

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8 , 12, 24 and 48 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 7

  6. Apparent Oral Clearance (CL/F) for Methotrexate (MTX)

    Clearance of a drug is a measure of the rate at which a drug is metabolized or eliminated by normal biological processes. Clearance obtained after oral dose (apparent oral clearance) is influenced by the fraction of the dose absorbed. Clearance was estimated from population PK modeling. Drug clearance is a quantitative measure of the rate at which a drug substance is removed from the blood.

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose), 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8 , 12, 24 and 48 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 7

  7. Total Amount of Unchanged Drug Excreted in the Urine From Time Zero to 12 Hours (Ae[0-12]) for CP-690,550

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose) through 12 hours post-dose on Day 6 and Day 7

  8. Renal Clearance (CL R) for CP-690,550

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose) through 24 hours post-dose on Day 6 and Day 7

  9. Total Amount of Unchanged Drug Excreted in the Urine From Time Zero to 24 Hours (Ae[0-24]) for Methotrexate (MTX)

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose) through 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 7

  10. Renal Clearance (CL R) for Methotrexate (MTX)

    Measured: 0 (pre-dose) through 24 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CP-690,550 (tofacitinib) and Methotrexate (MTX) in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Pfizer at 4 sites 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 3 inclusion and 3 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 4 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Dec 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to 12 Hours [AUC (0-12)] for CP-690,550 (time frame: 0 (pre-dose), 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 12 hours post-dose on Day 6 and Day 7). The study lists 4 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 4 Feb 2013.
