  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female subjects between 18 and 65 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
  • Healthy as determined by a responsible and experienced physician, based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests and cardiac testing. A subject with a clinical abnormality or laboratory parameter(s) which is/are not specifically listed in the inclusion or exclusion criteria, outside the reference range for the population being studied may be included only if the Investigator agree and document that the finding is unlikely to introduce additional risk factors and will not interfere with the study procedures.
  • Body weight >=50 kilogram (kg) and body mass index within the range 19 - 34 kg/meter^2 (inclusive).
  • A female subject is eligible to participate if she is of:
  • Non-childbearing potential defined as pre-menopausal females with a documented hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy or bilateral salpingectomy [for this definition, "documented" refers to the outcome of the investigator's/designee's review of the subject's medical history for study eligibility, as obtained via a verbal interview with the subject or from the subject's medical records]; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea [in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) > 21.7 international unit/Liter (L) and estradiol <110 picomoles/L is confirmatory]. [Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the contraception methods if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2-4 weeks will elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method.] Child-bearing potential with negative pregnancy test as determined by urine or serum human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) test at screening or prior to dosing AND Agrees to use one of the contraception methods for an appropriate period of time (as determined by the product label or investigator) prior to the start of dosing to sufficiently minimize the risk of pregnancy at that point. Female subjects must agree to use contraception until 2 days post-last dose.
  • OR has only same-sex partners, when this is her preferred and usual lifestyle.

  • Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form.
  • Agrees to provide written consent to have information entered into The Over-volunteering Prevention System "TOPS".
  • Alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin <=1.5xupper limit of normal (ULN) (isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%).

One unit is equivalent to 8 grams of alcohol: a half-pint (approximately 240 milliliter [mL]) of beer, 1 glass (125 mL) of wine or 1 (25 mL) measure of spirits.
  • History of sensitivity to any of the study medications, or components thereof or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or GSK Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation.
  • A positive pre-study Hepatitis B surface antigen or positive Hepatitis C antibody result within 3 months of screening.

About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Open-Label, Four Period, Crossover Study to Assess the Systemic Exposure of Fluticasone Propionate From FLIXOTIDE™ 250 HFA pMDI and of Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol From SERETIDE™ 250/25 HFA pMDI When Given With the VENTOLIN Mini-Spacer Compared to the Aerochamber Plus Spacer in Healthy Subjects

The VENTOLIN Mini-Spacer is being developed in order to support patients in the Emerging Markets and Asia Pacific regions who do not have access to affordable spacers. The aim of this exploratory study is to investigate whether the systemic exposure for fluticasone propionate (FP) and salmeterol observed with the VENTOLIN Mini-Spacer is comparable to the systemic exposure for FP and salmeterol observed with the Trudell Aerochamber Plus spacer for both FLIXOTIDE and SERETIDE Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) products. There will be four study periods in the study and all participants will receive four study treatments during the study. The total duration of study including screening, treatment period, washout period, and follow-up period will be 58 days. Study is planned to enroll 20 healthy subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing VENTOLIN Mini-Spacer and Aerochamber Plus spacer in people with Asthma, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 10 inclusion and 15 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 19 Jun 2018. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Area under the plasma drug concentration versus time curve over 24 hours (AUC[0-24h]) for FP (time frame: Samples will be collected at: pre-dose, and 5 minutes (m), 10m, 30m, 45, 1 hour (h), 1.5h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 10h, 12 h, 16h and 24 h post dose in each 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 19 Jun 2018.
