About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label, Single-Dose Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Tolerability of RBP-7000 Using Poly (DL-lactide-co-glycolide) Polymer of Two Different Molecular Weights (Low and High Molecular Weights as Test Treatments) Compared to Intermediate Molecular Weight (Reference Treatment) Polymer in Subjects With Schizophrenia

Primary Objective: To assess the relative bioavailability of RBP-7000 formulated with 2 different molecular weights (MW) (low and high MW as test treatments) of poly (DL-lactide-co-glycolide) with a carboxylic acid end group (PLGH) polymer compared to intermediate MW PLGH polymer following single subcutaneous (SC) injection of RBP-7000 in subjects with stable schizophrenia.

Secondary Objective:

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single SC injections of RBP-7000 using a PLGH polymer of 2 different MW (low and high MW as test treatments) compared to intermediate MW polymer in subjects with stable schizophrenia.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, single-dose, parallel-group study in subjects with clinically stable schizophrenia who are not currently taking risperidone. A total of approximately 48 subjects (16 per group) will be randomized to receive a single subcutaneous (SC) injection of RBP-7000 120 mg formulated with PLGH polymer of either 21 kilodaltons (kDa) (low MW group), 29 kDa of PLGH polymer (high MW group), or 26 kDa of PLGH polymer (intermediate MW group).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing RBP-7000 in people with Schizophrenia, run by Indivior Inc. at 2 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 4 inclusion and 25 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 31 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 2 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 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?

Initial Burst Parameters: Cmax of risperidone (time frame: approximately 0-24 hours; Day 1 to Day 2). The study lists 6 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 31 Jan 2017.
