About this study

Official title: An Enabling Study to Compare the Inhalation Profiles of Women in the Third Stage of Labour to Those of Non-pregnant Female Volunteers and to Explore Whether There Are Any Differences Which Could Impact the Delivery of an Inhaled Medicinal Product

The purpose of this study is to record and compare the inhalation profiles of non pregnant women and those who are in the third stage of labour. The inhalation profiles will be recorded from consenting women as they inhale with maximal effort through an inhalation profile recorder [Glaxosmithkline (GSK), Ware]. The recorder will simulate resistance to airflow and will be representative of a dry powder inhaler of moderate resistivity. The inhalation endpoints will include Peak Pressure Drop, Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate, Inhaled Volume, Inhalation time, Average Inhalation Flow Rate and Acceleration rate which will be compared between the two female cohorts. Inhalation profiles recorded in this way may subsequently be used to study the in-vitro performance of investigational materials across inhalation parameters representative of the target patient population.

An appropriate number of subjects will be consented so that approximately 40 subjects (20 non-pregnant females and 20 stage three labour subjects) complete assessments. The inhalation profiles will be recorded on the same day of screening or at another time within a span of 50 days

What is being measured

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

  1. Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Peak pressure drop

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out by measuring the Peak pressure Drop (kPa) using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  2. Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out for Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate [Liters/minute (L/min)] using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  3. Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Inhaled Volume

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out for the Inhaled Volume (L) using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  4. Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Inhalation time

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out for the Inhalation time measured in seconds(s)

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  5. Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Average Inhalation Flow Rate

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out for Average Inhalation Flow Rate (L/min) measured using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  6. Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Acceleration rate

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment of Acceleration rate (L/min/s) will be measured using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  7. Characterization of the inhalation profile of women in the 3rd stage of labour by measuring Peak pressure Drop

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in a comfortable position (the position will be recorded) and the assessment will be carried out by measuring the Peak pressure Drop (kPa) using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  8. Characterization of the inhalation profile of women in the 3rd stage of labour by measuring Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in a comfortable position (the position will be recorded) and the assessment will be carried out for Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate (L/min) using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  9. Characterization of the inhalation profile of women in the 3rd stage of labour by measuring Inhaled Volume

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in a comfortable position (the position will be recorded) and the assessment will be carried out for the Inhaled Volume (L) using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  10. Characterization of the inhalation profile of women in the 3rd stage of labour by measuring Inhalation time

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in a comfortable position (the position will be recorded) and the assessment will be carried out for the Inhalation time measured in seconds

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  11. Characterization of the inhalation profile of women in the 3rd stage of labour by measuring Average Inhalation Flow Rate

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in a comfortable position (the position will be recorded) and the assessment will be carried out for Average Inhalation Flow Rate (L/min) measured using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

  12. Characterization of the inhalation profile of women in the 3rd stage of labour by measuring Acceleration rate

    Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in a comfortable position (the position will be recorded) and the assessment of Acceleration rate (L/min/s) will be measured using the inhalation profile recorder

    Measured: Screening, Up to Day 50

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Haemorrhage, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 2 sites 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 2 inclusion and 2 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 25 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 2 sites 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.

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?

Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Peak pressure drop (time frame: Screening, Up to Day 50). The study lists 12 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 25 May 2017.
