About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics of a Medium Chain Triglyceride Oil Oxandrolone Solution vs. Tablets in Healthy Adults: A Relative Bioavailability Study

To assess the pharmacokinetics and relative bioavailability of a single dose of approximately 0.1 mg/kg of a medium chain triglyceride (MCT) oil oxandrolone solution vs. tablets in a small cohort of healthy adults.

Read the detailed description

The results of this study will provide data regarding the relative bioavailability of a novel preparation of oxandrolone in MCT oil, which will allow dosing in neonates and small infants. This pilot study will provide information to design a larger multicenter study of neonates undergoing surgery for complex congenital heart disease.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • OxandrinDrug

    Also called Oxandrolone

    The primary outcome for this study will be measurements of the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of oxandrolone 0.1 mg/kg both in tablet form and in the MCT oil preparation. Blood samples for pharmacokinetics will be drawn at 9 timepoints.

    Safety will be assessed by recording adverse events and assessment of hepatic function at baseline and one week following oxandrolone dosing.

Receives: Drug: Oxandrin

What is being measured

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

  1. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) curve

    The primary outcome for this study will be the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of oxandrolone 0.1 mg/kg both in tablet form and in the MCT oil preparation as measured by peak plasma concentration (Cmax) curve

    Measured: Measurement of Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) at 15 min, 30 min, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48 hours on Days 1 and 8

  2. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)

    The primary outcome for this study will be the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of oxandrolone 0.1 mg/kg both in tablet form and in the MCT oil preparation as measured by the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC).

    Measured: Measurements at 15 min, 30 min, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48 hours on Days 1 and 8

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety will be assessed by recording adverse events and assessment of hepatic function at baseline and one week following oxandrolone dosing.

    The risks associated with the 2 doses of oxandrolone given during the course of this study are minimal. Known adverse effects of anabolic steroids, including hepatic dysfunction and virilization, are typically associated with longer-term use (months of daily dosing) and are very unlikely to occur in this study.

    Measured: Liver function will be assessed by measuring serum transaminase levels at baseline and 1 week after each oxandrolone dose in the study participants, and any adverse events throughout the study period and up to 1 week after final dosing will be recorded.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Oxandrin in people with Bioavailability, run by University of Utah 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 4 inclusion and 7 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 3 May 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 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?

Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) curve (time frame: Measurement of Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) at 15 min, 30 min, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48 hours on Days 1 and 8). 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 3 May 2018.
