Official title: Effect of Three Multiple-dose Regimens of BIA 9 1067 at Steady-state on the Levodopa Pharmacokinetics of a Single-dose of Immediate Release 100/25 mg Levodopa/Carbidopa and 100/25 mg Levodopa/Benserazide in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of BIA 9 1067 (5 mg, 15 mg and 50 mg) in steady-state conditions on the levodopa pharmacokinetics of a single dose of immediate-release levodopa/carbidopa 100/25 mg and of a single dose of immediate-release levodopa/benserazide 100/25 mg.

Read the detailed description

A single-centre, randomized, double-blind, gender-balanced, placebo-controlled study in 4 groups of 18 healthy subjects each. This study consisted of a once-daily administration of BIA 9 1067 (5 mg, 15 mg or 50 mg) or placebo for 18 days. Twelve (12) hours after the BIA 9 1067 dose, a single-dose of levodopa/carbidopa 100/25 mg was administered on Day 11 and a single-dose of levodopa/benserazide 100/25 mg was administered on Day 18.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIA 9-1067 5 mg, BIA 9-1067 25 mg and levodopa/carbidopa 100/25 in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD), run by Bial - Portela C S.A. at 1 site in France.

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 10 inclusion and 14 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 24 Dec 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 France. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 24 Dec 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?

Cmax - Maximum Plasma Concentration of Levodopa (Levodopa/Carbidopa) (time frame: pre-dose and at the following times post-dose: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours post-dose.). The study lists 8 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 24 Dec 2015.
