About this study

This study will consist of 2 phases: Pretreatment Phase and Treatment Phase. The Pretreatment Phase will have 2 time points: Screening and Baseline. Subjects will be admitted to the clinical study ward the day before starting the study drug administration (Day -1) for PK and safety assessments during Treatment Phase, and discharged at Day 33 (group A) and Day 47 (group B). Post-test will be done at Day 37 (+/-1), Day 42 (+3) (group A) and Day 51 (+/-1), Day 56 (+3) (group B). Study medication will be administered with 240 mL of room temperature water

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of perampanel in Korean healthy male subjects

    PK analysis will be performed on PK Analysis Set using plasma concentrations of perampanel. Plasma concentrations will be tabulated by nominal sampling time and summarized using summary statistics.

    Measured: Approximately 56 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety and tolerability of perampanel

    Safety will be assessed by monitoring and recording all adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), regular monitoring of hematology, blood chemistry and urine values, regular measurement of vital signs, weight, physical examinations and electrocardiograms (ECGs).

    Measured: Approximately 56 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Perampanel in people with Healthy, run by Eisai Co., Ltd. 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 7 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 3 Mar 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 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.

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?

Pharmacokinetics (PK) of perampanel in Korean healthy male subjects (time frame: Approximately 56 days). 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 3 Mar 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
