What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Positive Responses to Palatability Assessment of The Taste of Mesalamine

    A taste assessment was completed immediately after investigational product was administered to assess the subject's taste/liking of the formulation. The assessment consisted of a 5-point rating scale. Participants were asked to choose one of the following responses to the statement "The taste was acceptable": strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, or strongly disagree. The number of participants who chose either of the top two responses (strongly agree, agree) is reported.

    Measured: Immediately post-dose

  2. Number of Participants Who Detected an Aftertaste of Mesalamine

    An aftertaste assessment was completed 5 minutes after administration of investigational product to assess whether the participants detected an aftertaste. The participants answered "Yes" or "No" to the following question: "Was there an aftertaste?" The number of participants who answered "Yes" is reported.

    Measured: 5 minutes post-dose

  3. Number of Participants With Positive Responses to Palatability Assessment of The Aftertaste of Mesalamine

    An aftertaste assessment was completed 5 minutes after administration of investigational product to assess the subject's rating of aftertaste and means of administration. The assessment consisted of a 5-point rating scale. The participants were asked to choose one of the following responses to the statement "The aftertaste (if present) was acceptable": strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, or strongly disagree. The number of participants who chose either of the top two responses (strongly agree, agree) is reported.

    Measured: 5 minutes post-dose

  4. Number of Participants Willing to Take Mesalamine Via Treatment Method on a Regular Basis

    The participants were asked to answer "Yes" or "No" to the following question: "Would you be willing to take medicine this way on a regular basis if necessary?" The number of participants who answered "Yes" is reported.

    Measured: Immediately post-dose

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event

    Participants were monitored for treatment-emergent adverse events through the follow-up assessment, which occurred 2 days +/- 1 day post-dose.

    Measured: 4 days

  2. Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Important Laboratory Results

    Clinical laboratory assessments included hematology, chemistry and urinalysis parameters, all measured 6 hours post-dose. All clinical laboratory assays were performed according to the laboratory's normal procedures. Reference ranges were supplied by the laboratory and were used to assess the clinical laboratory data for clinical significance and out-of-range pathological changes. The investigator assessed out-of-range clinical laboratory values for clinical significance and indicated whether or not the values were clinically significant.

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Important Vital Signs

    Vital sign assessments included systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate and body temperature measurements, all measured 6 hours post-dose. Study personnel used both absolute values and change from baseline values to determine if the vital sign was potentially clinically important. Criteria for the potential clinical importance of both absolute and change from baseline values were pre-specified. A participant's vital sign had to meet both the absolute and change from baseline criteria to be considered as potentially clinically important.

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Important Electrocardiogram (ECG) Results

    Subjects underwent a standard 12-lead ECG 6 hours post-dose. The investigator assessed if the ECG tracing was normal or abnormal; if abnormal, the investigator made a determination of whether or not the abnormality was clinically significant.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Mesalamine in people with Healthy, run by Shire at 1 site in United States.

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 1 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 3 Jun 2021. 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 States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Apr 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Positive Responses to Palatability Assessment of The Taste of Mesalamine (time frame: Immediately post-dose). The study lists 4 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 3 Jun 2021.
