About this study

Official title: A Relative Bioavailability Study to Compare the Pharmacokinetics of a Fixed Dose Combination of Fluticasone Furoate and Levocabastine With Levocabastine and Fluticasone Furoate Alone

This is an open label, randomized, 3-way cross-over, and repeat administration study in healthy male and female subjects. The purpose of the study is to determine the relative bioavailability of Fluticasone Furoate (FF) and Levocabastine (LEV), when each is administered alone and as FF/LEV Fixed Dose Combination (FDC).This study consists of Part A (in which 30 subjects including 12 Korean subjects will be enrolled) and Part B (in which 18 subjects will be enrolled). Each part will consist of three treatment periods separated by a minimum washout period of 14 days. In each treatment period, subjects will receive seven daily doses of one of the 3 treatments: FF, LEV or FF/LEV FDC, via an intranasal spray according to one of the 6 possible randomization sequences. The study will use an adaptive design with an interim review following Part A to confirm whether Part B is required.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma concentrations of FF and LEV

    Concentrations of FF and LEV will be determined in plasma samples

    Measured: Day 7 (Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose) and Day 8 (24 hours post-dose) of each treatment period

  2. Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters for both FF and LEV

    From the plasma concentration-time data, area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of FF and LEV were determined

    Measured: Day 7 (Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose) and Day 8 (24 hours post-dose) of each treatment period

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. PK parameters for both FF and LEV alone and in combination

    From the plasma concentration-time data, AUC, Cmax and time to maximum observed plasma drug concentration (tmax) of FF and LEV alone and in combination were determined for healthy Korean male and female subjects

    Measured: Day 7 (Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose) and Day 8 (24 hours post-dose) of each treatment period

  2. tmax

    Tmax of FF and LEV alone and in combination were determined for healthy male and female subjects

    Measured: Day 7 (Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose) and Day 8 (24 hours post-dose) of each treatment period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing FF/LEV FDC, FF and LEV in people with Rhinitis, Allergic, Perennial and Seasonal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Australia.

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 8 inclusion and 21 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 15 May 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 Australia. 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?

Plasma concentrations of FF and LEV (time frame: Day 7 (Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose) and Day 8 (24 hours post-dose) of each treatment period). 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 15 May 2017.
