About this study

Official title: ASP015K Pharmacokinetic Study - Bioequivalence Evaluation of a Small and Current Tablet of ASP015K

The objective of this study is to evaluate the bioequivalence of a new tablet versus a current tablet of ASP015K under fasting conditions after single oral administration in healthy male subjects.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, randomized, single dose, 2-way crossover designed study. Forty non-elderly healthy male subjects will receive an ASP015K small tablet or an ASP015K current tablet in each period under fasted conditions. If the bioequivalence between two tablets cannot be demonstrated because of an insufficient number, an add-on subject study will be conducted as needed. The design of the add-on subject study will be the same with that of the initial study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing peficitinib in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 1 site in Japan.

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 5 inclusion and 50 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 16 Oct 2024. 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 Japan. 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?

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 (PK) parameter of ASP015K: Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from the time of dosing to the time of the last sampling (AUCt) (time frame: Up to 72 hours after each study drug dosing). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02531191, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 16 Oct 2024.
