About this study

Official title: Single-center, Randomized, Open-label, 3-way Crossover Study to Characterize the RAS-peptide-profile After Single and Repeated Oral Administration of Different RAS-inhibitors in Healthy Male Subjects

The primary objective is the characterization of the RAS peptide profiles after single and repeated oral administration of a renin inhibitor, an ACE inhibitor and an angiotensin receptor blocker in healthy volunteers.

Secondary objectives are the correlation of RAS peptide profiles with pharmacokinetic profiles of the different RAS inhibitors and with pharmacodynamic parameters such as blood pressure and heart rate. Output of the classic RAS system will be assessed using aldosterone concentrations. Fluid and sodium intake will be monitored using sodium concentration and total volume in 24h urine.

Read the detailed description

The results of a pilot study have shown that single doses of different RAS inhibitors produce characteristic changes of the RAS peptide profiles. In a first step this finding needs to be verified in a larger number of healthy subjects. Since it is unknown, whether the changes that were observed within hours after a single inhibitor dose are stable over time, the profiles also need to be investigated under steady-state conditions of the different inhibitors. Comparison of RAS peptide profiles after single dose and under steady-state conditions will also allow to detect whether the peptide profiles are altered by compensatory mechanisms.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ACEI-ARB-RI, ARB-RI-ACEI and RI-ACEI-ARB in people with RAS Peptide Profile in Healthy Volunteers, run by University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 9 inclusion and 10 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 13 May 2013. 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 Switzerland. 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?

RAS-peptide profile (time frame: 0-192h). 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 13 May 2013.
