About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo Controlled Study With Two Sequential Two-way Cross-over Parts to Demonstrate That the Influence of Pramipexole up to 4.5 mg Daily on the QT Interval of the ECG in Healthy Male and Female Volunteers is Comparable With Placebo, With a Positive Control (Two-way Cross-over Moxifloxacin Versus Placebo)

The objective of the study is to assess that pramipexole does not prolong the QT interval more than placebo

Conditions
Healthy
Being tested
Pramipexole extended-release (ER) tablets, Pramipexole immediate-release (IR) tablets, Moxifloxacin, Pramipexole Placebo, Moxifloxacin Placebo

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean of the individually heart rate corrected QT interval (QTcI) values

    Measured: 1 to 4 hours after dosing on day 21

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mean of the QTcI values

    Measured: 1 to 4 hours after dosing at day 12

  2. QTcI at any point in time

    Measured: between 1 and 7 hours after dosing at day 12 and day 21

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Pramipexole extended-release (ER) tablets, Pramipexole immediate-release (IR) tablets and Moxifloxacin 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 3 inclusion and 27 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 13 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. 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?

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?

Mean of the individually heart rate corrected QT interval (QTcI) values (time frame: 1 to 4 hours after dosing on day 21). 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 13 Oct 2014.
