Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • Women only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Premenopausal females currently successfully using non-hormonal methods of contraception including tubular ligation, cervical vault cap, diaphragm, or non-hormonal coil with spermicide will be required in addition to use a second approved method of contraception for the duration of the study [that is (i.e.), a male sexual partner who agrees to use a male condom with spermicide; a sterile sexual partner; or abstinence (participants reporting abstinence who become sexually active while on the study must agree to use other additional barrier methods of contraception)]. The pregnancy test result must be negative at screening and at each check-in visit. Participants must have a regular menstrual cycle of approximately 28 days duration for at least 4 previous cycles prior to screening
  • Postmenopausal females, or women not of child-bearing potential due to surgical sterilization (at least 3 months after surgical hysterectomy, or at least 3 months after bilateral oophorectomy or bilateral tubal occlusion with or without hysterectomy) confirmed by medical history, or menopause. Menopausal women include women with spontaneous amenorrhea for at least 12 months or amenorrhea not induced by a medical condition such as anorexia nervosa and/or not taking medications during that time of amenorrhea [example (e.g.), oral contraceptives (OCs), hormones, gonadotropin releasing hormone, anti-estrogens, selective estrogen receptor modulators, or chemotherapy]. Postmenopausal status should be confirmed by a serum follicle-stimulating hormone level at screening greater than 40 international units per liter (IU/L)
  • Have a body mass index of 18 to 30 kilograms per square meter (kg/m^2), inclusive

Who cannot join

  • Have a positive pregnancy test or are lactating
  • Are currently enrolled in, have completed or discontinued within the last 90 days from a clinical trial involving a study drug; or are concurrently enrolled in any other type of medical research judged not to be scientifically or medically compatible with this study
  • Are persons who have previously completed or withdrawn from this study or any other study investigating baricitinib, and have previously received the study drug
  • Have known allergies to baricitinib or Microgynon (containing ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) or related compounds
  • Have used or intend to use drugs or substances that are known to be inducers or inhibitors of cytochrome P450 3A (eg, St. John's wort, rifampin, ketoconazole) within 30 days prior to the first dose
  • Have taken OCs within 3 months, implanted contraceptives within 6 months, injectable contraceptives within 12 months, or topical controlled delivery contraceptives (patch) or hormonal coils within 3 months prior to the study
  • Have a history or presence of any thromboembolic disease, recurrent jaundice, acute or chronic liver disease, hormonally-induced migraines, undiagnosed vaginal bleeding, significant hyperlipidemia, and mammary, endometrial, or hepatic carcinoma (known or suspected)
  • Smokes more than 10 cigarettes per day

About this study

Official title: The Effects of Multiple Doses of Baricitinib on the Pharmacokinetics of a Single Dose of an Oral Contraceptive in Healthy Female Subjects

The main purpose of this study is to find out how the body absorbs and breaks down a common birth control pill called Microgynon when it is given with the study drug called baricitinib. Safety and the body's ability to tolerate baricitinib and Microgynon will also be studied. The study will last approximately 6 weeks for each participant.

Being tested
Baricitinib, Microgynon

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetics (PK): Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of Ethinyl Estradiol

    Measured: Days 1 and 29: predose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 24 and 48 hours post dose

  2. PK: Cmax of Levonorgestrel

    Measured: Days 1 and 29: predose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 24 and 48 hours post dose

  3. PK: Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity [AUC(0-∞)] of Ethinyl Estradiol

    Measured: Days 1 and 29: predose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 24 and 48 hours post dose

  4. PK: AUC(0-∞) of Levonorgestrel

    Measured: Days 1 and 29: predose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 24 and 48 hours post dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Baricitinib and Microgynon in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Eli Lilly and Company 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 3 inclusion and 8 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 Jun 2017. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Apr 2017). 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?

Pharmacokinetics (PK): Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of Ethinyl Estradiol (time frame: Days 1 and 29: predose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 24 and 48 hours post dose). 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 6 Jun 2017.
