About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Dose Titration Study of CPC-201 in Patients With Dementia of Alzheimer's Type

This is a Phase II, ascending dose study of CPC-201 in patients with dementia of Alzheimer's type to determine the optimal dose titration schedule.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase II, ascending dose study of CPC-201 in patients with dementia of Alzheimer's type to determine the optimal dose titration schedule. The study involves a step wise cohort design in two different patient populations: Group 1 will comprise of patients who have been treated with low dose of CPC-201(5 or 10 mg/day) (given once daily) for at least 4 weeks just prior to Day1. Group 2 will consist of patients who have never been treated with CPC-201 before or who have not received any other AChEI for the past 6 months.

In this study, CPC-201 dose will be increased at weekly intervals, in accordance with the schedules given below, to its first intolerable dose (FID) or maximum allowed dose (MAD) of 60 mg/day (40mg/day for Cohort 3c) together with solifenacin 15 mg/day.

Cohort 1 1st week: 20mg 2nd week: 30mg 3rd week: 40mg 4th week: 50mg 5th week: 60mg Cohort 2* 1st week: 20mg 2nd week: 40mg 3rd week: 60mg Cohort 1b 1st - 2nd week: 10mg 3rd week: 20mg 4th week: 30mg 5th week: 40mg 6th week: 50mg 7th week: 60mg Cohort 3c* 1st week: 10mg 2nd week: 15mg 3rd week: 20mg 4th week: 25mg 5th week: 30mg 6th week: 35mg 7th week: 40mg

*: The dose titration schedule of Cohort 2 and 3 may be altered based on Cohort 1 result.

Patients will be enrolled in Cohort 2 only when patients enrolled in Cohort 1 have safely completed titration. Similary, patients will be enrolled in Cohort 3, only when patients enrolled in Cohort 2 have safely completed titration.

Patients reaching their FID or having completed one week treatment with donepezil 40mg/day, have two options.

Option 1: Patient will be allowed to immediately enter a long term extension at their Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or MAD.

Option 2: Patients may choose not to enter the long term extension, in which case the Investigator will decide whether the patient should discontinue high dose of donepezil without down-titration, or whether donepezil should be downtitrated to their own standard of donepezil dose.

Being tested
Donepezil, Solifenacin

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • DonepezilDrug

    Donepezil dose increased at weekly intervals up to first intolerable dose (FID) or to maximum allowed dose (MAD) together with solifenacin.

  • SolifenacinDrug

    Donepezil dose increased at weekly intervals up to first intolerable dose (FID) or to maximum allowed dose (MAD) together with solifenacin.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Who Reached the Maximum Allowed Dose (MAD) in Their Respective Cohort

    Of the four cohorts with different dosing schedules for CPC-201, the cohort with the greatest proportion of participants to reach the donepezil MAD was determined to be the optimal administration regimen.

    Measured: 1-7 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants With TEAEs Leading to Study Drug Discontinuation

    Number of subjects who experienced any treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) leading to study drug discontinuation

    Measured: 1-7 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Donepezil and Solifenacin in people with Dementia of Alzheimer's Type, run by Chase Pharmaceuticals Corporation, an affiliate of Allergan plc at 4 sites 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 11 inclusion and 35 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 5 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 5 Mar 2019). 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?

Number of Participants Who Reached the Maximum Allowed Dose (MAD) in Their Respective Cohort (time frame: 1-7 weeks). 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 5 Mar 2019.
