About this study

Official title: A Single-Dose, Open-Label, Randomized, 2-Way Crossover Study to Assess the Effect of Food on the Bioavailability of Mebendazole From a Fast-Disintegrating Chewable Formulation of Mebendazole in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of food on the bioavailability (how much medication is in your blood) of mebendazole from a single 500 mg oral dose of a fast-disintegrating chewable tablet formulation of mebendazole in healthy adult participants.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (the participant and the study physician know what the participant is getting), randomized (like the flip of a coin), single-center, single-dose, 2-way crossover (method used to switch participants from one treatment arm to another in a clinical study) study in approximately 16 healthy adult participants. Participants will receive study medication under fed state first and later under fasted state or vice versa. The study consists of 3 phases: screening phase of approximately 3 weeks, an open-label treatment phase consisting of two 6-day treatment periods (Treatment period 1 and 2) with a 7- to 10 day washout between Day 1 of each treatment period, and a safety follow-up phase occurring 7 to 10 days after the last study-related procedure on Day 5 of Treatment Period 2. The study physician will check participant's general health during the study. Total duration of study for each participant will be approximately 48 days.

What participants receive

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

  • Mebendazole - fasted state (Treatment A)Drug

    Also called VERMOX

    Participants will receive a single 500 mg dose of mebendazole fast-disintegrating chewable tablet in the fasted condition.

  • Mebendazole - fed state (Treatment B)Drug

    Also called VERMOX

    Participants will receive a single 500 mg dose of mebendazole fast-disintegrating chewable tablet in the fed condition.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Mebendazole - fasted state (Treatment A) and Mebendazole - fed state (Treatment B) in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 1 site in Belgium.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 27 Jun 2014. 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 Belgium. 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?

Concentration of mebendazole in blood and urine under fed and fasted condition (time frame: Up to Day 5 of in each treatment period). 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 27 Jun 2014.
