About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Open-Label, Single-Dose, 4-Way Crossover Study to Assess the Relative Bioavailability of Four 80 mg Febuxostat XR Formulations

This study will assess the relative bioavailability, safety and tolerability following administration of 80 mg single oral doses of 4 febuxostat extended release (XR) formulations.

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested is this study is febuxostat XR. Four different formulations of febuxostat XR are being tested to see how the drug moves through the body. This study will look at safety and side effects in people who take febuxostat XR.

This cross-over study will enroll approximately 78 patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to 1of 4 sequences which will determine the order of the 4 treatments received:

  • Febuxostat XR 80 mg capsule Formulation 1
  • Febuxostat XR 80 mg capsule Formulation 2
  • Febuxostat XR 80 mg capsule Formulation 3
  • Febuxostat XR 80 mg capsule Formulation 4

Participants will take 1 dose on Day 1 with a washout period between each period.

This single-center trial will be conducted in the United States. The overall time to participate in this study is up to 80 days. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic including a period of confinement, and will be contacted by telephone 30 days after last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

Being tested
Febuxostat XR 80 mg Capsule F1, Febuxostat XR 80 mg Capsule F2, Febuxostat XR 80 mg Capsule F3, Febuxostat XR 80 mg Capsule F4

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration for Febuxostat

    Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) is the peak plasma concentration of a drug after administration, obtained directly from the plasma concentration-time curve.

    Measured: Day 1 pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 48 hours) post-dose

  2. Mean AUCt: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration for Febuxostat

    AUCt is a measure of total plasma exposure to the drug from time 0 to time of the last quantifiable concentration.

    Measured: Day 1 pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 48 hours) post-dose

  3. Mean AUC∞: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity for Febuxostat

    AUC∞ is a measure of total plasma exposure to the drug from time zero extrapolated to infinity.

    Measured: Day 1 pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 48 hours) post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Febuxostat XR 80 mg Capsule F1, Febuxostat XR 80 mg Capsule F2 and Febuxostat XR 80 mg Capsule F3 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Takeda at 1 site in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 5 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 19 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 19 Jan 2017). 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?

Mean Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration for Febuxostat (time frame: Day 1 pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 48 hours) post-dose). 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 19 Jan 2017.
