What is being measured

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

  1. AUC 0-∞

    Area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC 0-∞).

    Measured: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h (hours) after drug administration on day 1 and day 15

  2. Cmax

    Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax). Individual Cmax values will be directly determined from the plasma concentration time profiles.

    Measured: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h after drug administration on day 1 and day 15

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Tmax

    Time at which the maximum plasma concentration occurs (tmax). Individual tmax values will be directly determined from the plasma concentration time profiles.

    Measured: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h after drug administration on day 1 and day 15

  2. AUC0-tz

    Area under the concentration-time curve over the time interval from 0 to the last quantifiable plasma concentration (AUC0-tz).

    Measured: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h after drug administration on day 1 and day 15

  3. t1/2

    Elimination half-life (t1/2). The terminal half-life will be calculated from the terminal rate constant.

    Measured: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h after drug administration on day 1 and day 15

  4. CL/F

    Apparent clearance of the analyte in plasma following extravascular administration (CL/F).

    The apparent clearance after oral administration will be determined according to the following equation: CL or CL/F=dose/AUC0-∞. (F=absolute bioavailability factor)

    Measured: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h after drug administration on day 1 and day 15

    Measured: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h after drug administration on day 1 and day 15

  6. MRTpo

    Mean residence time of the analyte in the body after oral administration (MRTpo).

    Measured: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h after drug administration on day 1 and day 15

  7. Assessment of Tolerability by Investigator

    The investigator has assessed tolerability based on adverse events and the laboratory evaluation. Tolerability was assessed by the investigator according to the categories 1="good", 2="satisfactory", 3="not satisfactory", and 4="bad".

    Measured: Day 6 of period 1 and 2

  8. Clinical Relevant Abnormalities for Vital Signs, Blood Chemistry, Haematology, Urinanalysis and ECG

    Clinical Relevant Abnormalities for Vital Signs, Blood Chemistry, Haematology, Urinanalysis and ECG. New abnormal findings or worsening of baseline conditions were reported as Adverse Events.

    Measured: from intake of the second dose Faldaprevir up to 9 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 201335 in people with Hepatitis C and Liver Cirrhosis, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 1 site in Germany.

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 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 10 Aug 2015. 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 Germany. 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 10 Aug 2015). 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?

AUC 0-∞ (time frame: -0:15, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 48:00, 72:00, 96:00, 120:00 h (hours) after drug administration on day 1 and day 15). The study lists 2 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 10 Aug 2015.
