About this study

Official title: A Single Dose Five-way Cross-over Study to Establish an in Vitro/in Vivo Correlation (IVIVC) for Oral Slow Release (SR) Tablets With 0.375 mg Pramipexole in Healthy Male Volunteers

The primary objective of the study was to estimate the magnitude of the error in the prediction of in vivo bioavailability (AUC0-30,Cmax) by means of in vitro dissolution data applying the methods of IVIVC. The secondary objective of the study was to investigate whether the intake of food 30 minutes prior to drug administration affects the systemic exposure of pramipexole SR C2 or not

Conditions
Healthy
Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. AUC0-30 (area under the concentration time curve of pramipexole in blood plasma over the time interval 0 to 30 h after drug administration)

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

  2. Cmax (maximum measured concentration of pramipexole in blood plasma)

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. AUC0-10 (area under concentration-time curve of pramipexole in blood plasma over the time interval from 0 to the median tmax in the fasted state)

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

  2. AUC0-24 (area under concentration-time curve of pramipexole in blood plasma over the time interval from 0 to 24 h after drug administration),

    Measured: Up to 24 hours after drug administration

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

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

  4. tmax (time from dosing to the maximum concentration of pramipexole in blood plasma)

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

  5. λz (terminal rate constant in blood plasma),

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

  6. t½ (terminal half-life of pramipexole in blood plasma)

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

  7. MRTpo (mean residence time of pramipexole in the body after oral administration)

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

  8. CL/F (apparent clearance of pramipexole in the blood plasma after extravascular administration)

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

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

    Measured: Up to 30 hours after drug administration

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

    Measured: Up to 120 hours after drug administration

  11. Number of subjects with adverse events

    Measured: Up to 7 days after last drug administration

  12. Number of subjects with clinically significant findings in vital signs

    pulse rate, blood pressure

    Measured: Up to 7 days after last drug administration

  13. Number of subjects with clinically significant findings in laboratory parameters

    Measured: Up to 7 days after last drug administration

  14. Number of subjects with clinically significant findings in physical examination

    Measured: Up to 7 days after last drug administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing High fat, high caloric meal, Pramipexole IR tablets and Pramipexole SR C 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 18 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 9 Oct 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?

AUC0-30 (area under the concentration time curve of pramipexole in blood plasma over the time interval 0 to 30 h after drug administration) (time frame: Up to 30 hours after drug administration). 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 9 Oct 2014.
