About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-label, Randomized, Two-period, Two-treatment, Crossover Study to Evaluate the Effects of Food on the Pharmacokinetics of Urate After a Single Dose of Inosine in Healthy Male Subjects

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of food on the amount of urate in the body after a single oral dose of inosine.

Read the detailed description

Eighteen (18) eligible healthy male subjects will be randomly assigned to two groups with 9 subjects per group to receive a single oral dose of 1000 mg inosine with or without food on day 1 after an overnight fast. Subjects who receive inosine with food on day 1 will receive a second dose of inosine without food on day 8 after an overnight fast. Subjects who receive inosine without food on day 1 after an overnight fast will receive a second dose of inosine with food on day 8 after an overnight fast.

Subjects will be admitted to the clinic before dinner on days 0 and 7, the days before dosing, and will stay in the clinic for 48-h post-dose. During the clinic stay, blood samples will be taken for urate measurements.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax: Maximum Observed Serum Urate Concentration

    Measured: -12 to 0 hrs pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hrs post-dose

  2. AUC (0-t): Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Time t (Time of Last Quantifiable Plasma Concentration)

    Measured: -12 to 0 hr pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 hrs post-dose

  3. AUC (0-inf): Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity

    Measured: -12 to 0 hr pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 hrs post-dose

  4. Tmax: Time of Maximum Serum Concentration

    Measured: -12 to 0 hr pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 hrs post-dose

  5. T1/2: Apparent Terminal Half-life

    Measured: -12 to 0 pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 hrs post-dose

  6. Baseline Corrected Cmax: Baseline Corrected Maximum Serum Concentration

    Correction for individual endogenous urate levels was done by subtracting the individual mean endogenous baseline concentration prior to dosing from each post-dose concentration in the profile. The two samples collected at -12 h and 0 h (pre-dose) before the meal were used to measure the mean endogenous baseline concentrations in each dosing period (periods 1 and 2). Negative concentrations were set to zero.

    Measured: -12 to 0 hr pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 hrs post-dose

  7. Baseline Corrected AUC (0-t): Baseline Corrected Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Time t (Time of Last Quantifiable Serum Concentration)

    Correction for individual endogenous urate levels was done by subtracting the individual mean endogenous baseline concentration prior to dosing from each post-dose concentration in the profile. The two samples collected at -12 h and 0 h (pre-dose) before the meal were used to measure the mean endogenous baseline concentrations in each dosing period (periods 1 and 2). Negative concentrations were set to zero.

    Measured: -12 to 0 hr pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 hrs post-dose

  8. Baseline Corrected AUC (0-inf): Baseline Corrected Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity

    Correction for individual endogenous urate levels was done by subtracting the individual mean endogenous baseline concentration prior to dosing from each post-dose concentration in the profile. The two samples collected at -12 h and 0 h (pre-dose) before the meal were used to measure the mean endogenous baseline concentrations in each dosing period (periods 1 and 2).

    Measured: -12 to 0 hr pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hrs post-dose

  9. Baseline Corrected Tmax: Baseline Corrected Time of Maximum Serum Concentration

    Correction for individual endogenous urate levels was done by subtracting the individual mean endogenous baseline concentration prior to dosing from each post-dose concentration in the profile. The two samples collected at -12 h and 0 h (pre-dose) before the meal were used to measure the mean endogenous baseline concentrations in each dosing period (periods 1 and 2).

    Measured: -12 to 0 h pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hrs post-dose

  10. Baseline Corrected T1/2: Baseline Corrected Apparent Terminal Half-life

    Correction for individual endogenous urate levels was done by subtracting the individual mean endogenous baseline concentration prior to dosing from each post-dose concentration in the profile. The two samples collected at -12 h and 0 h (pre-dose) before the meal were used to measure the mean endogenous baseline concentrations in each dosing period (periods 1 and 2).

    Measured: -12 to 0 hr pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 hrs post-dose

Secondary outcomes (2)

    Measured: Up to 10 days after first study drug administration at Day 1 of Period 1

  2. Safety Assessment: Adverse Events

    Number of participants with adverse events after study drug administration

    Measured: Up to 10 days after first study drug administration at Day 1 of Period 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Inosine in people with Healthy, run by Michael Alan Schwarzschild 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 6 inclusion and 12 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 29 Mar 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 24 Feb 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?

Cmax: Maximum Observed Serum Urate Concentration (time frame: -12 to 0 hrs pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hrs post-dose). The study lists 10 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 NCT02614469, which also lists 6 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 29 Mar 2017.
