Trial summary

With the pharmacokinetics (PK) of centanafadine currently being evaluated in adults. The PK of extended-release centanafadine may differ in children compared to adults due to physiological differences in the gastrointestinal tract. The information in this trial will support pediatric dose selection in future trials. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Pilot Phase 2a, Multicenter, Open-label, Single-dose Trial to Assess the Pharmacokinetics of Centanafadine Extended-release Capsules After Oral Administration in Pediatric Subjects (9 to 12 Years, Inclusive) With Attention-deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

With the pharmacokinetics (PK) of centanafadine currently being evaluated in adults. The PK of extended-release centanafadine may differ in children compared to adults due to physiological differences in the gastrointestinal tract. The information in this trial will support pediatric dose selection in future trials.

Study groups in NCT04081363
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Swallowed Capsules CohortExperimentalParticipants swallowed two capsules of centanafadine (one containing a 50-milligram [mg] dose as extended release beads and other containing a 5-mg dose as immediate-release [IR] beads), total dose of 55 mg, orally in the morning of Day 1 following a minimum 8-hour fast.
Receives: Drug: Centanafadine
Sprinkled Onto Applesauce CohortExperimentalParticipants were administered centanafadine 55 mg, contents of 2 capsules (one containing a 50-mg dose as beads and other containing a 5-mg dose as IR beads) sprinkled on a tablespoon of applesauce, orally in the morning of Day 1 following a minimum 8-hour fast.
Receives: Drug: Centanafadine

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Centanafadine

    Measured: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10,12 hours post dose on Day 1 and 22-26 hours post dose on Day 2

  2. PK Parameter: Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Centanafadine

    Measured: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10,12 hours post dose on Day 1 and 22-26 hours post dose on Day 2

  3. PK Parameter: Area Under Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to 12 Hours Postdose (AUC0-12h) of Centanafadine

    Measured: 0 to 12 hours post dose on Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Centanafadine in people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, run by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development & Commercialization, 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 4 inclusion and 21 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 13 Jan 2023. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 13 Jan 2023). 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?

Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Centanafadine (time frame: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10,12 hours post dose on Day 1 and 22-26 hours post dose on Day 2). The study lists 3 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 13 Jan 2023.
