About this study

Official title: A Study Designed to Determine the Gastro-Retentive and Modified Release Properties of Memantine Hydrochloride (HCl) Prototype Capsule Formulations in Healthy Subjects

To assess how long modified release (MR) memantine hydrochloride prototype capsule formulations stay in the stomach as determined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, open-label, single dose, 5-period study in 24 healthy male and female subjects, with an optional Period 6, if required. It is expected the study will be executed in 3 cohorts of 8 subjects, with each cohort participating in up to 2 study periods (total of up to 6 study periods). Cohort 3 may be conducted in parallel with Cohort 2.

Subjects will be dosed in a sequential manner, as appropriate. Each subject will be administered up to 2 regimens (2 different prototype capsule formulations) across 2 study periods. There will be a minimum 35-day interval between each dose administration.

Subjects will have an MRI scan performed on Days 2, 4, 7, 10 and 14 of each period to assess the gastric retentive properties of the formulation.

Being tested
Memantine Hydrochloride MR Prototype Capsule Formulation A, Memantine Hydrochloride MR Prototype Capsule Formulation B, Memantine Hydrochloride MR Prototype Capsule Formulation C, Memantine Hydrochloride MR Prototype Capsule Formulation D, Memantine Hydrochloride MR Prototype Capsule Formulation E

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Memantine Hydrochloride MR Prototype Capsule Formulation A, Memantine Hydrochloride MR Prototype Capsule Formulation B and Memantine Hydrochloride MR Prototype Capsule Formulation C in people with Gastric Retention and Healthy, run by Lyndra Inc. at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2019. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Jun 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Gastric Retention by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) (time frame: 7 Days). 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 Jun 2019.
