Trial summary

WHO recommends to take TB drugs while fasting: if TB drugs are taken with food, perhaps drug concentrations are too low; on the other hand: if this is not tolerated, drugs could also be taken with food. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Influence of Fasting and Food on the Pharmacokinetics of Isoniazid, Rifampicin, Pyrazinamide, and Ethambutol in Newly Diagnosed TB Patients

WHO recommends to take TB drugs while fasting: if TB drugs are taken with food, perhaps drug concentrations are too low; on the other hand: if this is not tolerated, drugs could also be taken with food.

Do lower drug concentrations - with improved adherence to therapy - outweigh the disadvantage of lower drug blood concentrations over time? How exactly do the drug concentrations over time (pharmacokinetics) compare between fasting and fed conditions, especially in the early stage of TB treatment when patients are relatively sick, and relatively poorly tolerate TB drugs?

Read the detailed description

To evaluate the influence of concomitant food ingestion on the pharmacokinetics of HRZE in newly diagnosed TB patients To evaluate the influence of early disease on the PK parameters of HRZE in TB patients To compare the pharmacokinetics of HRZE in the early stage of disease with the pharmacokinetics of HRZE in more stable condition in newly diagnosed TB patients To evaluate adverse events of HRZE in TB patients

What is being measured

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

  1. pharmacokinetics

    pharmacokinetics (AUC0-8, Cmax, and Tmax); comparison between TB patients who take HRZE concomitant with food and TB patients who take HRZE concomitant without food, weeks 1 and 8 of treatment

    Measured: 3 days - week 1 and week 8

  2. pharmacokinetics (AUC0-8, Cmax, and Tmax) of HRZE

    PK curves from venous blood specimens sampled from indwelling venous catheter

    Measured: 11 time points, 3 consecutive days - wk 1 & 8

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate adverse events of HRZE, week 1 and 8 - while taking food or not

    tolerance - acceptance; vomiting, refusal

    Measured: week 1 - week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing intravenous administration of 1st line TB drugs, day 1 in people with Tuberculosis, run by University Medical Center Groningen at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 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 8 Apr 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 Indonesia. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 (time frame: 3 days - week 1 and week 8). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02121314, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 8 Apr 2015.
