About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics Study of Zolpidem Hemitartarate Orodispersible Tablet 3.5 mg Formulation, With Fasting and Postprandial Administration, in Male and Female Healthy Volunteers, Produced by Biolab Sanus Farmacêutica Ltda

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of the new formulation of zolpidem hemitartarate orodispersible tablet 3.5 mg in male and female healthy volunteers.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase I study of zolpidem hemitartarate orodispersible tablet 3.5 mg in fasting and postprandial administration. Sample size is 28 volunteers, male and female, aged from 18 to 50 years old.

This is an open-label, randomized, crossover study. Each volunteer will be randomized to one of the following sequencies:

  • Sequency 1: zolpidem hemitartarate orodispersible tablet 3.5 mg in fasting (period 1) and zolpidem hemitartarate orodispersible tablet 3.5 mg postprandial (period 2)
  • Sequency 2: zolpidem hemitartarate orodispersible tablet 3.5 mg postprandial (period 1) and zolpidem hemitartarate orodispersible tablet 3.5 mg in fasting (period 2) Formulation will be administered in a single dose, orally in each period. The volunteers will be admitted in two different periods of 36 hours each, when investigational product will be administered and blood samples will be collected at pre-determined periods of time up to 24 hours for pharmacokinetics evaluation.

Primary objective is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of the new formulation of zolpidem hemitartarate orodispersible tablet 3.5 mg in healthy volunteers. As a secondary objective, it will be evaluated if there is any pharmacokinetics difference between genders.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing zolpidem hemitartarate tablet 3.5 mg (fasting + post-prandial) and zolpidem hemitartarate tablet 3.5 mg (post-prandial + fasting) in people with Healthy, run by Biolab Sanus Farmaceutica at 1 site in Brazil.

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 18 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 11 Jun 2018. 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 Brazil. 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?

Area under the curve (0-last) (time frame: 24 hours). The study lists 8 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 11 Jun 2018.
