What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax - Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration

    Maximum observed plasma concentration of BIA 9-1067

    Measured: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-OPC dose.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. AUC0-t - Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to the Time of Last Quantifiable Concentration

    AUC0-t - Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the time of last quantifiable concentration of BIA 9-1067

    Measured: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-OPC dose.

  2. Tmax - Time of Occurrence of Cmax of BIA 9-1067

    tmax - time of occurrence of maximum observed plasma concentration of BIA 9-1067

    Measured: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-OPC dose.

  3. AUC0-inf - Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to the Infinity

    AUC0-inf - Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the infinity.

    Measured: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-OPC dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIA 9-1067 non-micronized and BIA 9-1067 micronized in people with Parkinson Disease, run by Bial - Portela C S.A..

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 12 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 21 Aug 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Aug 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Observed Plasma Concentration (time frame: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-OPC dose.). 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 21 Aug 2015.
