Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 55 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Healthy males or females, ages 18 to 55 years, inclusive, at the time of informed consent.

  • Females must not be lactating or pregnant at Screening or Baseline.
  • Females of childbearing potential must not have had unprotected sexual intercourse within 30 days before study entry and must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception (eg, total abstinence, a doublebarrier method [such as condom plus diaphragm with spermicide], have a vasectomized partner with confirmed azoospermia, or an intrauterine device, contraceptive implant, or oral contraceptive that does not contain levogesterol) throughout the entire study period and for 30 days after study drug discontinuation. Females using hormonal contraceptives containing levogesterol must be on another form of contraception (such as double barrier method.) as well. If currently abstinent, the subject must agree to use a doublebarrier method as described above if she becomes sexually active during the study period or for 30 days after study drug discontinuation. Females who are using hormonal contraceptives must have been on a stable dose of the same hormonal contraceptive product for at least 4 weeks before dosing and must continue to use the same contraceptive during the study and for 30 days after study drug discontinuation. All females will be considered to be of childbearing potential unless they are postmenopausal (amenorrheic for at least 12 consecutive months, in the appropriate age group, and without other known or suspected cause) or have been sterilized surgically (i.e. bilateral tubal ligation, total hysterectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy, all with surgery at least 1 month before dosing).

Who cannot join

  • Clinically significant illness that requires medical treatment within 8 weeks or a clinically significant infection that requires medical attention within 4 weeks of dosing.
  • Evidence of disease that may influence the outcome of the study within 4 weeks of dosing, eg, psychiatric disorders and disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, kidney, respiratory system, endocrine system, hematological system, neurological system, cardiovascular system, or subjects who have a congenital abnormality in metabolism.
  • Any history of gastrointestinal surgery that may affect PK profiles of perampanel, eg, hepatectomy, nephrotomy, cholecystectomy, digestive organ resection or any gastrointestinal procedure for the purpose of weight loss (including Lapband), which would slow gastric emptying.
  • Any clinically abnormal symptom or organ impairment found by medical history at Screening, and physical examinations, vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG) finding, or laboratory test results that require medical treatment at Screening or Baseline.
  • Any laboratory abnormalities considered clinically significant by the investigator.
  • A prolonged QT/QTc interval (QTc greater than 450 msec) as demonstrated upon repeat ECG at Screening or Baseline.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Crossover Study to Demonstrate Bioequivalence Between a 12-mg Dose of an Oral Suspension Formulation of Perampanel and a 12-mg Tablet Formulation of Perampanel Under Fasted and Fed Conditions in Healthy Subjects

This is an open-label, 2-arm, single-dose, randomized crossover study. The study will enroll a total of 100 subjects (2 arms with 50 subjects in each arm). In Arm 1, bioequivalence between the oral suspension and tablet formulations of perampanel will be evaluated under fasted conditions; in Arm 2, bioequivalence between the oral suspension and tablet formulations will be evaluated under fed conditions. In both study arms, subjects will be randomized on Study Day 1 for Treatment Period 1 to receive a single 12-mg dose for perampanel as either oral suspension or a tablet, and will then receive the alternative treatment on Study Day 43 of Treatment Period 2. Drug administration will be separated by a washout of at least 6 weeks between the two treatment periods.

Perampanel - Group 1ExperimentalTreatment A: Single oral dose of a 12-mg perampanel tablet under fasted condition. Treatment B: Single 12 mg dose of perampanel oral suspension under fasted condition. Subjects will be randomized on Study Day 1 for Treatment Period 1 to Treatment A or Treatment B. On Study Day 43 the subject will then receive the alternate Treatment for Treatment Period 2.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Perampanel in people with Healthy Subjects, run by Eisai Inc..

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 3 Nov 2015. 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?

Pharmacokinetics of Perampanel: AUC(0-t) (time frame: Up to 504 hours postdose in each treatment period). 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 3 Nov 2015.
