Trial summary

To modeling the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic(PK-PD) simulation with the plasma concentration and the transporter occupancy from OCD patients treated with escitalopram.

What is being measured

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

  1. serotonin transporter occupancy

    Measured: 72hr after oral administration of escitalopram

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. genotype

    Measured: baseline

  2. Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale(Y-BOCS) Score

    scale for the severity of Obsessive-compulsive symptoms

    Measured: baseline

  3. serotonin transporter occupancy

    serotonin transporter occupancy measured at 5 hour and 24 hour after oral dose of escitalopram

    Measured: within the first 24hrs after oral administration of escitalopram

  4. escitalopram plasma concentration

    plasma concentration of escitalopram at baseline, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 10, 24, 48, 72 hour after oral dose of escitalopram

    Measured: within 72 hours after oral administration of escitalopram

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of OCD, run by Seoul National University 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 2 inclusion and 2 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 8 Apr 2019. 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.

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?

serotonin transporter occupancy (time frame: 72hr after oral administration of escitalopram). 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 8 Apr 2019.
