About this study

Official title: Phase I, Open-label, Three Periods Study in Health Male and Female Subjects, Under Fasting Condition for Evaluation of Pharmacokinetics Profile of Single Dose of Eplerenone in Coated Tablets Formulation on Concentrations of 25mg, 50mg and 100mg, Produced by Biolab Sanus Farmacêutica Ltda

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics profile of the formulation of eplerenone coated tablets in the concentration of 25mg, 50mg and 100mg (2 coated tablets of 50mg) in male and female healthy subjects under fasting condition.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase I study of eplerenone coated tablets of 25mg, 50mg and 100mg (2 coated tablets of 50mg) in fasting administration. Sample size is 12 subjects, male and female, aged between 18 and 50 years old.

This is an open-label, unicenter study with three periods, three treatments and one sequence. Each subject will receive the following treatments at the following periods:

  • Period 1: one coated tablet of eplerenone 25mg in fasting
  • Period 2: one coated tablet of eplerenone 50mg in fasting
  • Period 3: two coated tablets of eplerenone 50mg (100mg of eplerenone) in fasting Formulations will be administered in a single dose, orally in each period. Trial subjects will be admitted in three different periods of 24 hours each, when investigational product will be administered and blood samples will be collected at pre-determined periods of time for pharmacokinetics evaluation.

Primary objective is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of formulations of eplerenone coated tablets of 25mg, 50mg and 100mg (two coated tablets of 50mg) in healthy subjects under fasting condition. As a secondary objective, it will be also evaluated the safe and tolerability of coated tablets of eplerenone.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing eplerenone in people with Pharmacokinetics and Healthy Subjects, 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 23 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jun 2018.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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Maximum serum concentration (Cmax) (time frame: 24 hours). The study lists 2 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 6 Jun 2018.
