About this study

Official title: Open Label, Randomized Comparative Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetic Characteristics Between Coadministered Finasteride Tablet and Tamsulosin HCl Tablet and GL2701 Capsule, in Healthy Subjects

To compare the relative bioavailability and pharmacokinetic characteristics of a newly single pill combination of finasteride and tamsulosin with a conventional combination of finasteride and tamsulosin in healthy subjects with a single dose, randomized, open-label, 2-sequence -2period crossover study.

Read the detailed description

This single dose, open label, balanced, randomized, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence, crossover study was conducted to compare the relative bioavailability and pharmacokinetic characteristics of a newly developed formulation with a conventional formulation in healthy subjects.

For this, a single-center, randomized, single-dose, open-label, 2-period and 2-sequence crossover study with a 14-day washout period was conducted in 26 healthy volunteers. Plasma samples for the analysis of finasteride/tamsulosin were collected up to 48 h after drug administration. Participants received either reference (in combination of of 0.2mg tamsulosin and 5mg finasteride) or test drug formulation (single pill combination of 0.2mg tamsulosin and 5mg finasteride) in the first period and the alternative formulation in the second period. Plasma concentrations of both tamsulosin and finasteride were determined by validated high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry detection. Pharmacokinetic parameters, including Cmax and AUC, were determined by noncompartmental analysis. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out using log-transformed Cmax and AUC, and the mean ratios and their 90% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. According to regulatory requirements set forth by Korea and the US Food and Drug Administration, products meet the criteria for bioequivalence if the 90% CIs of the mean ratios for Cmax and AUC are within the range of 0.80 to 1.25.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing In combination of 0.2mg finasteride and 5mg tamsulosin and GL2701 capsule in people with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), run by Korea University Anam Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 15 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 11 Apr 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 South Korea. 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?

Finasteride and Tamsulosin pharmacokinetics (Cmax and AUC) (time frame: 48 hr). 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 11 Apr 2013.
