About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics and Safety Studies of Esomeprazole Use in Schizophrenic Patients

To evaluate the pharmacokinetic and safety for the esomeprazole use for schizophrenia

Read the detailed description

Investigators prepare to recruit 30 schizophrenia patients in one year. Investigators will conduct a 8-week open label clinical trial for evaluation of the pharmacokinetic and safety of esomeprazole use for the schizophrenia. Investigators will give 40 mg/day esomeprazole in the first two weeks and 80 mg/day from the third week to the end of the trial. Investigators will check the area under the concentration of metabolites of esomeprazole on Day 1, Day 14 and Day 56 and the genotype of CYP2C19. The GI symptoms and related drug side effects will be evaluated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma Concentration analysis

    The pharmacokinetic parameters for esomeprazole and its main metabolites

    Measured: It will be assessed on Day 1 predose, Day 14 90 mins post dose, and Day 56 90 mins post dose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. CYP2C19 genotypes analysis

    Investigators will genotype CYP2C19 genotype to determine that which metabolized type (poor metabolizer, intermediate metabolizer, and good metabolizer) of patients belong to.

    Measured: The genotype will be assessed on Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing esomeprazole in people with Schizophrenia, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 2 sites in Taiwan.

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 8 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 29 Mar 2018. 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 Taiwan. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Plasma Concentration analysis (time frame: It will be assessed on Day 1 predose, Day 14 90 mins post dose, and Day 56 90 mins post dose). 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 29 Mar 2018.
