About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic Interaction Between Three Different Single Doses of BIA 9-1067 and a Single-dose of Controlled-release 100/25 mg Levodopa/Benserazide: a Double-blind, Randomized, Four-way Crossover, Placebo-controlled Study in Healthy Male Subjects

To investigate the effect of three single oral doses of BIA 9-1067 (25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg) on the levodopa pharmacokinetics when administered in combination with a single-dose of controlled-release levodopa 100 mg/benserazide 25 mg (Madopar HBS).

Read the detailed description

Single centre, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study with four consecutive single-dose treatment periods. The washout period between doses was to be at least10 days. On each treatment period (25, 50 and 100 mg BIA 9-1067 or placebo), after completion of pre-dose assessments, BIA 9-1067-Placebo was to be administered concomitantly with the dose of Madopar HBS; post-dose assessments were to be completed and subjects were to be discharged 72 h post-dose.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax - Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration of Levodopa

    Primary pharmacokinetic parameter: Levodopa maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) (ng/mL)

    Measured: pre-dose, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 and 72 h post-dose.

  2. AUC0-t - Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve

    Primary pharmacokinetic parameter: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve for levodopa

    Measured: pre-dose, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 and 72 h post-dose.

  3. AUC0-∞ - AUC From Time Zero to Infinity

    Primary pharmacokinetic parameter: Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity for levodopa

    Measured: pre-dose, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 and 72 h post-dose.

  4. Tmax - Time to Cmax

    Primary pharmacokinetic parameter: tmax - time to Cmax

    Measured: pre-dose, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 and 72 h post-dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIA 9-1067 and Madopar® HBS in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD), run by Bial - Portela C S.A. at 1 site in Portugal.

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 8 inclusion and 19 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 Nov 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 Portugal. 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 3 Nov 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 Observed Plasma Concentration of Levodopa (time frame: pre-dose, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 and 72 h 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 Nov 2015.
