What is being measured

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

  1. Time to perception of sweetness

    Time to perception of sweetness after 7 days of treatment with the investigational products - relative to the time to perception of sweetness at the begin-ning of treatment

    Measured: after 7 days of treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Perception of Sweetness of Saccharin

    To measure the time to perception of sweetness of Saccharin after 7 days of treatment with the investigational products calculated as difference to time to perception of sweetness at the beginning of treatment. The time of sweetness will be measured in minutes and seconds.

    Measured: 4 - 7 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing administration of Sinupret and administration of Bronchipret in people with Current Smokers, run by Bionorica SE at 1 site in Belgium.

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 12 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 1 Jul 2014. 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 Belgium. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Time to perception of sweetness (time frame: after 7 days of treatment). 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 1 Jul 2014.
