Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 50 years
  • Men only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Healthy male volunteers aged from 18 to 50 years.
  • A health profile devoid of organic or physiological disorders.
  • The ECG and general blood and urine laboratory tests performed before the study should be within normal ranges. Minor or occasional changes from normal ranges are accepted if, in the investigator's opinion, considering the current state of the art, they are not clinically significant, are not life-threatening for the subjects and do not interfere with the product assessment. These changes and their non-relevance will be justified in writing specifically.
  • Body mass index (BMI=weigh/height2) will range between 19 and 27 Kg/m2 and weight between 50 and 110 kg.
  • Understanding and accepting the study procedures and signing the informed consent form.

Who cannot join

  • Non compliance of the inclusion criteria.
  • Having suffered any organic disease or major surgery in the three months prior to start this study.
  • A prior history of or presence of significant cardiovascular, neurological, haematological, psychiatric, hepatic, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, endocrine, immunologic or renal disease that, in the investigator's opinion, considering the current state of the art, they are clinically significant, are life-threatening for the subjects and could interfere with the product assessment; or which may lead to suspecting a disorder in drug absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion, or that suggest gastrointestinal irritation due to drugs.
  • History or clinical evidence of psychiatric disorders, alcoholism, drug abuse, or regular use of psychoactive drugs.
  • History of hypertension, seizures, endocrine disorders (such as diabetes and hypothyroidism), coagulation disorders, kidney and/or liver disease.
  • Subjects for which the drug involved in the study is counter indicated.
Show all 15Show fewer
  • Smokers of more than 20 cigarettes per day.
  • Taking more than 35 g of alcohol per day.
  • Drinking more than 5 drinks containing xanthines per day.
  • Regular use of any drug in the month prior to the study sessions. The treatment with single or limited doses of symptomatic medicinal products in the week prior to the study sessions will not be a reason for exclusion if it is calculated that it has been cleared completely the day of the experimental session.
  • Have taken part in studies with blood donation in the last 8 weeks prior to start this study.
  • History of allergy, idiosyncrasy, hypersensitivity or adverse reactions to the active substance or any excipients.
  • Have been volunteer in another study with drugs in the last 3 months prior to start this study.
  • Subjects with positive serology for hepatitis B, C or HIV.
  • Subjects unable to understand the nature, consequences of the study and the procedures requested to be followed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Blood and urine concentrations of Epoetin alfa

    Urine samples will be collected in different time periods: -48 to -24h, - 24h to 0h (pre-administration), 0 to 24h, 24 to 48h, 48 to 72h, 72 to 96h, 96 to 120h and 120 to 144h (post-administration). 10 mL of blood and dried blood spot (DBS) microvolume sampling with FTA DMPK -C cards will be collected at different time points: 48-72 hours before the first administration of the drug, before administration (0h, baseline), at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours after administration of the drug. In session 5, blood samples will be collected at 0h (pre-administration) and at 1h, 4h and 8h after the administration of the drug.

    Measured: From 48-72 hours pre-administration to 144 hours post administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing EPOETIN ALFA in people with There Are no Conditions Under Study. Healthy Volunteers, run by Parc de Salut Mar.

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 15 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 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Blood and urine concentrations of Epoetin alfa (time frame: From 48-72 hours pre-administration to 144 hours post administration). 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 Oct 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
