About this study

Official title: Bioequivalence Study of Two MN-166 (Ibudilast) 50 mg Extended Release Tablet Formulations Compared With MN-166 (Ibudilast) 10mg Capsules in Healthy Volunteers

To compare the bioavailability and pharmacokinetic profiles of two different formulations MN-166 50mg, extended release (ER) tablets with MN-166 10mg capsules in a single-dose regimen in healthy volunteers

Read the detailed description

Part 1:

To compare the bioavailability and pharmacokinetic profiles of two different formulations MN-166 50mg, extended release (ER) tablets with MN-166 10mg capsules in a single-dose regimen in healthy volunteers; and To choose one of the two MN-166 50mg ER tablet formulations for evaluation in Part 2.

Secondary: To determine the safety and tolerability of the two formulations of MN-166 ER tablets in a single-dose regimen in healthy volunteers.

Part 2:

To compare the bioavailability and steady-state pharmacokinetic profile of MN-166 50mg ER tablet with MN-166 10mg capsules in a multiple-dose regimen in healthy volunteers; and

Secondary: To determine the safety and tolerability of MN-166 ER tablets in a multiple-dose regimen in healthy volunteers

What participants receive

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

  • MN-166Drug

    Also called ibudilast, Pinatos® capsule

    an orally available small molecule drug approved in Japan and Korea for asthma and post-stroke complications and has been prescribed for these indications for more than 25 years

Study groups in NCT03533387
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Extended-release formulation 1 (ER1)Experimental50mg MN-166 tablet. This formulation is intended for once-a-day dosing, hence, the label of extended-release.
Receives: Drug: MN-166
Extended-release formulation 2 (ER2)Experimental50mg MN-166 tablet. This formulation is intended for once-a-day dosing, hence, the label of extended-release.
Receives: Drug: MN-166
Intermediate-release formulation (IR)Active comparator10mg MN-166 capsule. This formulation is typically given two or three times daily, hence, the label of intermediate-release.
Receives: Drug: MN-166

What is being measured

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

  1. Compare the PK Profile of two new formulations in Single-day dose of MN-166

    Compare the maximum plasma concentrations [Cmax] of MN-166 of two different formulations MN-166 50mg, extended release (ER) tablets with MN-166 10mg capsules in a single-dose regimen in healthy volunteers.

    Measured: 5 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Compare the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events of two new formulations in Single-day dose of MN-166

    Compare the number and frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (serious and non-serious) profiles of two different formulations MN-166 50mg, extended release (ER) tablets with MN-166 10mg capsules in a single-dose regimen in healthy volunteers.

    Measured: 5 weeks

  2. Compare the PK Profile of two new formulations in Multi-day dose of MN-166

    Compare the maximum plasma concentrations [Cmax] of MN-166 of two different formula in a multiple-dose regimen.

    Measured: 3 weeks

  3. Compare the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events of two new formulations in Multi-day dose of MN-166

    Compare the number and frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (serious and non-serious) of MN-166 (pharmacokinetic profiles) of two different formula in a multiple-dose regimen.

    Measured: 3 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MN-166 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by MediciNova 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 8 inclusion and 11 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 31 May 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 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?

Compare the PK Profile of two new formulations in Single-day dose of MN-166 (time frame: 5 weeks). 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 31 May 2019.
