What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax (maximum concentration of the analyte in plasma)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  2. AUC0-tz (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 to the time of the last quantifiable data point)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  3. AUC0-∞ (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. λz (terminal rate constant in plasma)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  2. t1/2 (terminal half-life of the analyte in plasma)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  3. MRTpo (mean residence time of the analyte in the body after po administration)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  4. CL/F (total clearance of the analyte in the plasma after extravascular administration)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  5. Vz/F (apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase λz following an extravascular dose)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  6. Aet1-t2 (amount of analyte that is eliminated in urine from the time point t1 to time point t2)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  7. fet1-t2 (fraction of analyte eliminated in urine from time point t1 to time point t2)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  8. CLR,t1-t2 (renal clearance of the analyte from the time point t1 until the time point t2)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  9. %AUCtz-∞ (the percentage of the AUC0-∞ that is obtained by extrapolation)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  10. tmax (time from dosing to maximum concentration)

    Measured: up to 48 hours after drug administration

  11. Number of patients with clinically relevant changes in vital signs

    Measured: up to 3 days after last drug administration

  12. Number of patients with clinically relevant findings in 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG)

    Measured: up to 3 days after last drug administration

  13. Number of patients with adverse events

    Measured: up to 3 days after last drug administration

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

    Measured: day 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 44847 solution, low dose, BI 44847 suspension, high dose and BI 44847 tablet, low dose 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 21 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 Aug 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?

Cmax (maximum concentration of the analyte in plasma) (time frame: up to 48 hours after drug administration). The study lists 3 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 Aug 2014.
