About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Single Dose Open-Label Pharmacokinetic Study of Abiraterone Acetate in Male Participants With Mild or Moderate Hepatic Impairment Compared to Matched Control Participants With Normal Hepatic Function

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (study of what the body does to a drug) of 1000 mg oral dose of abiraterone acetate and its major metabolite(s) with mild or moderate hepatic impairment and matched control Participants with normal hepatic function.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (identity of assigned study drug will be known) pharmacokinetics and safety study of abiraterone acetate administered as four 250 mg tablets (1000 mg) to 3 cohorts (groups) in Cohort 1 (Mild Hepatic Impairment), Cohort 2 (Moderate Hepatic Impairment) and Cohort 3 (Normal Hepatic Function). There will be approximately 8 Participants per cohort (total of approximately 24 Participants for the study). The cohorts will be dosed sequentially and activities will consist of Screening, Study and Follow-up periods, a total of up to approximately 36 days. Possible Participants will be screened to assess their eligibility to enter the study within 14 days prior to study Day 1. Participants will be confined at the Clinical Research Center (CRC) from the time of Check-in on Day -1 until discharge on Day 5. Participants will return to the CRC on Days 8 and 15 and there will be a follow-up call or visit on Day 22. A review of all clinical and laboratory data through Day 8 evaluations in each cohort will be done by the Medical Monitor and the Principal Investigator (PI) prior to proceeding with dosing any further cohort, if indicated. Safety will be monitored throughout the study.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Abiraterone acetateDrug

    On the morning of Day 1, each participant was given four 250 mg tablets of abiraterone acetate with 240 mL of room temperature tap water. Dosing followed at least a 10-hour fast from food (not including water).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Abiraterone acetate in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Cougar Biotechnology, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 14 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 5 Dec 2013. 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 States. 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?

Maximum observed plasma concentration of abiraterone acetate (time frame: Up to 96 hours postdose). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02001571, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Dec 2013.
