What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the steady state concentration-time curve of linagliptin in plasma (AUCτ,ss)

    Measured: up to 19 days

  2. Maximum measured steady state concentration of linagliptin in plasma (Cmax,ss)

    Measured: up to 19 days

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibition

    Measured: up to 19 days

  2. AUCτ,ss (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma at steady state over a uniform dosing interval τ) of CD 1790

    Measured: up to 19 days

  3. Cmax,ss (maximum measured concentration of the analyte in plasma at steady state over a uniform dosing interval τ) of CD 1790

    Measured: up to 19 days

  4. Ratio of urinary concentrations of 6β-hydroxycortisol to cortisol

    Measured: screening, days 1 and 6 of treatment A, days 4, 6, 8 and 12 of treatment B always in the morning before drug administration

  5. Aet1-t2,ss ( amount of analyte that is eliminated in urine from the time point t1 to time point t2 under steady state conditions) of linagliptin

    Measured: up to 19 days

  6. fet1-t2,ss ( fraction of administered drug excreted unchanged in urine at steady state over the respective time interval, where t1 and t2 define beginning and end times of the time interval) of linagliptin

    Measured: up to 19 days

  7. Number of patients with adverse events

    Measured: up to 42 days

  8. Assessment of global tolerability by investigator on a 4-point scale

    Measured: up to 21 days after last drug administration

  9. Number of patients with abnormal findings in physical examination

    Measured: up to 21 days after last drug administration

  10. Number of patients with abnormal changes in laboratory parameters

    Measured: up to 21 days after last drug administration

  11. Number of patients with clinically significant changes in Vital signs (Blood Pressure (BP), Pulse Rate (PR))

    Measured: up to 21 days after last drug administration

  12. Number of patients with clinically significant changes in 12-lead ECG (electrocardiogram)

    Measured: up to 21 days after last drug administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Rifampicin and Linagliptin in people with Healthy, run by Boehringer Ingelheim.

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 24 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 Jul 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Area under the steady state concentration-time curve of linagliptin in plasma (AUCτ,ss) (time frame: up to 19 days). 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 8 Jul 2014.
