About this study

Official title: Interventional, Randomised, Double-blind 4-way Crossover Study Comparing the Gastro-intestinal Tolerability and Absorption Profile of Vortioxetine After Administration of Modified-release Formulations and Immediate-release Formulation in Healthy Women

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the gastro-intestinal tolerability (nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, and abdominal pain) of vortioxetine following single oral doses of three modified-release (MR) capsules with differently coated multiple particles compared to one immediate-release (IR) tablet.

What is being measured

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

  1. Gastro-intestinal tolerability (nausea) measured with 11-point Numerical Rating Scale

    Measured: Up to 24 hours post-dose in each treatment period

  2. Gastro-intestinal tolerability (abdominal pain) measured with 11-point Numerical Rating Scale

    Measured: Up to 24 hours post-dose in each treatment period

  3. Gastro-intestinal tolerability (abdominal discomfort) measured with 11-point Numerical Rating Scale

    Measured: Up to 24 hours post-dose in each treatment period

  4. Frequency, severity and duration of reported gastro-intestinal tolerability (nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort and abdominal pain)

    Measured: Up to 72 hours post-dose in each treatment period

  5. Area under the vortioxetine plasma concentration-time curve from zero to 72 hours post-dose (AUC0-72h)

    Measured: Up to 72 hours postdose

  6. Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of vortioxetine

    Measured: Up to 72 hours postdose

  7. Nominal time corresponding to the occurrence of Cmax (tmax)

    Measured: Up to 72 hours postdose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Encapsulated vortioxetine IR tablet, 20 mg, Vortioxetine MR capsule 20 mg (pH 5.5) and Vortioxetine MR capsule 20 mg (pH 6.0) in people with Healthy Women, run by H. Lundbeck A/S 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 3 inclusion and 0 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 13 Nov 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 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?

Gastro-intestinal tolerability (nausea) measured with 11-point Numerical Rating Scale (time frame: Up to 24 hours post-dose in each treatment period). The study lists 7 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 13 Nov 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
