About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Randomized, Open-label, 2-arm Parallel-design Study to Determine the Effect of Multiple-dose Rifampin on the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of Single-dose Enzalutamide in Healthy Male Subjects

This study evaluates how a drug that alters liver enzymes (rifampin) affects the metabolism of enzalutamide in men by measuring concentrations of enzalutamide and its metabolites in plasma.

Read the detailed description

The study consists of 2 randomized treatment arms. In both arms the subjects receive a single oral dose of enzalutamide.

In Arm 1 the subjects are admitted to the clinic on Day -1 where they remain until Day 3. Each subject receives a single oral dose of enzalutamide, administered under fasted conditions on Day 1. Ambulant visits take place from Day 4 to Day 50. Full PK profiles are obtained for enzalutamide, Major Inactive Carboxylic Acid Metabolite (M1) and Active Metabolite N-desmethyl Enzalutamide (M2) from Day 1 up to Day 50 after intake of enzalutamide.

In Arm 2 each subject receives a once-daily dose of rifampin on Days 1 to 21. On Day 8, a single oral dose of enzalutamide is administered under fasted conditions concomitantly with rifampin. Full PK profiles are obtained for enzalutamide, M1 and M2 from Day 8 up to Day 57 after intake of enzalutamide.

An End of Study Visit (ESV) takes place between 7 and 10 days after the last PK sample or early withdrawal.

Safety assessments are performed throughout the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. PK of enzalutamide and the sum of enzalutamide + M2 in plasma measured by area under the curve (AUC) from time 0 to 336 hours after dosing (AUC0-336h)

    Measured: Days 1 to 50 (29 times)

  2. PK of enzalutamide and the sum of enzalutamide + M2 in plasma measured by AUC extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf)

    Measured: Days 1 to 50 (29 times)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. PK of enzalutamide, M2, M1 and the sum of enzalutamide + M2 in plasma

    AUC0-336h, AUCinf, Cmax (M2, M1), time to attain Cmax (tmax), terminal elimination half life (t1/2), AUC up to last quantifiable concentration (AUClast), apparent total body clearance after extra vascular dosing (CL/F), apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase after extra vascular dosing (Vz/F) (parent compound only), Metabolite-to-Parent Ratio (MPR), percent extrapolated for AUCinf (%AUC)

    Measured: Days 8 to 57 (49 times)

  2. PK of rifampin in plasma

    Cmax, tmax, AUC for the defined interval between doses (AUCtau), minimum concentration (Cmin)

    Measured: Days 6 to 21 (20 times)

  3. Safety and tolerability of enzalutamide, alone or in the presence of rifampin

    vital signs, incidence of adverse events (AE), laboratory assessments, physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG)

    Measured: Screening (Day -28 to -7) to End of Study Visit (ESV) (>34 times)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing enzalutamide and rifampin in people with Drug-Drug Interaction (DDI) and Healthy Subjects, run by Astellas Pharma Europe B.V. at 1 site in Germany.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 15 Oct 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 Germany. 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?

PK of enzalutamide and the sum of enzalutamide + M2 in plasma measured by area under the curve (AUC) from time 0 to 336 hours after dosing (AUC0-336h) (time frame: Days 1 to 50 (29 times)). 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?
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 15 Oct 2014.
