  2. Area under the concentration-time curve from zero time to time of last quantifiable concentration (AUC [0-t]) of Lorcaserin

    Measured: predose and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose in each treatment period; treatment period length = 4 days

  3. Area under the concentration-time curve from zero time extrapolated to infinite time (AUC [0-inf]) of Lorcaserin

    Measured: predose and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose in each treatment period; treatment period length = 4 days

  4. Area under the concentration-time curve from zero time to 72 hour (AUC [0-72h]) of Lorcaserin

    Measured: predose and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 72 hours postdose in each treatment period; treatment period length = 4 days

  5. Time to Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (tmax) of Lorcaserin

    Measured: predose and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose in each treatment period; treatment period length = 4 days

  6. Terminal elimination phase half-life (t½) of Lorcaserin

    Measured: predose and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose in each treatment period; treatment period length = 4 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Participants With One or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) and Serious Adverse Event (SAE)

    Measured: Baseline up to 28 days after last dose of study drug (Day 35)

  2. Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Laboratory Values

    Measured: Baseline up to Day 11

  3. Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Vital Signs Parameters

    Measured: Baseline, Day 1, Day 2, Day 6, Day 7, Day 8, and Day 11

  4. Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Findings in Physical examinations

    Measured: Baseline and Day 11

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lorcaserin manufactured at Zofingen and Lorcaserin manufactured at Kawashima in people with Healthy Participants, run by Eisai Inc. 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 2 inclusion and 6 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 17 Oct 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?

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Lorcaserin (time frame: predose and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose in each treatment period; treatment period length = 4 days). The study lists 6 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 17 Oct 2018.
