What is being measured

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

  1. The Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of a Single Dose Padsevonil (PSL)

    Cmax was measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL).

    Measured: Plasma samples were taken predose on Day 1 and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours postdose

  2. The Area Under the Curve From 0 to t (AUC0-t) of a Single Dose Padsevonil (PSL)

    AUC0-t: area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration. It was measured in hours times nanograms per milliliter (h*ng/mL).

    Measured: Plasma samples were taken predose on Day 1 and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours postdose

  3. The Area Under the Curve (AUC) of a Single Dose Padsevonil (PSL)

    AUC was measured in hours times nanograms per milliliter (h*ng/mL).

    Measured: Plasma samples were taken predose on Day 1 and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours postdose

  4. The Maximum Plasma Concentration at Steady-state (Cmax, ss) of Multiple Doses Padsevonil (PSL)

    Cmax, ss was measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL).

    Measured: Plasma samples were taken predose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours on Day 13

  5. The Area Under the Curve (AUCtau) Over a Dosing Interval of Multiple Doses Padsevonil (PSL)

    AUCtau was measured in hours times nanograms per milliliter (h*ng/mL).

    Measured: Plasma samples were taken predose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 12 hours on Day 13

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The Amount of Padsevonil (PSL) Excreted in Urine

    Samples were taken to assess the amount of padsevonil that was excreted in urine. Ae,ss refers to cumulative amount of PSL excreted in the urine at steady state.

    Measured: Urine samples were taken on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4 and Day 13

  2. The Ratio of Padsevonil (PSL) to Its Metabolites Excreted in Urine

    Samples were taken to assess the metabolic ratio of padsevonil that was excreted in urine. MRAe was defined as the metabolic ratio of PSL to its metabolites for cumulative amount of PSL metabolites excreted in the urine. ss refers to steady state.

    Measured: Urine samples were taken on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4 and Day 13

  3. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events

    An Adverse Event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study medication, whether or not considered related to the study medication. An AE could, therefore, be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study medication.

    Measured: From Baseline until End-of-Treatment visit (up to Day 22)

  4. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events

    A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose:

    • Results in death
    • Is life-threatening
    • Requires in patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization
    • Is a congenital anomaly or birth defect
    • Is an infection that requires treatment parenteral antibiotics
    • Other important medical events which based on medical or scientific judgement may jeopardize the patients, or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the above

    Measured: From Baseline until End-of-Treatment visit (up to Day 22)

  5. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events Leading to Discontinuation of the Study

    An Adverse Event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.

    Measured: From Baseline until End-of-Treatment visit (up to Day 22)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Padsevonil in people with Elderly Study Participants and Adult Study Participants, run by UCB Biopharma S.P.R.L. 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 4 inclusion and 14 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 30 Jun 2021. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Jun 2021). 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?

The Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of a Single Dose Padsevonil (PSL) (time frame: Plasma samples were taken predose on Day 1 and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours postdose). The study lists 5 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 30 Jun 2021.
