What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Observed Analyte Concentration (Cmax) of Bedaquiline and its Metabolite (M2)

    Cmax is the maximum observed analyte concentration.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 120, 168, and 240 hours Post-dose

  2. Minimum Observed Analyte Concentration (Cmin) of Bedaquiline and its Metabolite (M2)

    Cmin is the minimum observed analyte concentration.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 120, 168, and 240 hours Post-dose

  3. Area Under the Analyte Concentration versus Time Curve (AUC) From Time of Administration up to 72 Hours Post Dosing (AUC72h) of Bedaquiline and its Metabolite (M2)

    AUC72h is the area under the analyte concentration versus time curve (AUC) from time of administration up to 72 hours post dosing, calculated by linear-linear trapezoidal summation.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours Post-dose

  4. Area Under the Analyte Concentration versus Time Curve (AUC) From Time of Administration up to 240 Hours Post Dosing (AUC240h) of Bedaquiline and its Metabolite (M2)

    AUC240h is the area under the analyte concentration-time curve from time 0 to 240 hours, calculated by linear-linear trapezoidal summation.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 120, 168, and 240 hours Post-dose

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Cmax of Clarithromycin and its Metabolite 14-OH-Clarithromycin

    Cmax is the maximum observed analyte concentration.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 12 hours Post-dose

  2. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Analyte Concentration (Tmax) of Clarithromycin and its Metabolite 14-OH-Clarithromycin

    Tmax is the actual sampling time to reach the maximum observed analyte concentration.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 12 hours Post-dose

  3. Cmin of Clarithromycin and its Metabolite 14-OH-Clarithromycin

    Cmin is the minimum observed analyte concentration.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 12 hours Post-dose

  4. Area Under the Analyte Concentration versus Time Curve (AUC) From Time of Administration up to 12 Hours Post Dosing (AUC12h) of Clarithromycin and its Metabolite 14-OH-Clarithromycin

    AUC12h is the area under the analyte concentration versus time curve (AUC) from time of administration up to 12 hours post dosing, calculated by linear-linear trapezoidal summation.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 12 hours Post-dose

  5. Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    An adverse event is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.

    Measured: Up to 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Bedaquiline and Clarithromycin in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 1 site in Belgium.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 Feb 2025. 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 Belgium. 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 Analyte Concentration (Cmax) of Bedaquiline and its Metabolite (M2) (time frame: Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 120, 168, and 240 hours Post-dose). The study lists 4 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 Feb 2025.
