About this study
Official title: An Open-Label, Randomized, Four-Period, Three-Block, Pharmacokinetic Study of Three Formulations of Decitabine/Tetrahydrouridine (THU) Combination Modified Release Capsules in Healthy Adults Under Fasting and Fed Conditions
This study is to investigate the effect of a high fat meal on the pharmacokinetics of decitabine and THU in healthy adults when administered as a modified release formulation of the 2 drugs in combination.
Read the detailed description
This study is to evaluate the relative pharmacokinetics of oral decitabine and tetrahydrouridine (THU) after a high-fat, high-calorie (FDA standard) meal as compared to decitabine and THU under fasting conditions in healthy adult male and female subjects. In addition, this study is to compare the pharmacokinetic parameters between male and female subjects, and also to capture safety information for the decitabine and THU combination in healthy subjects after oral dosing.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Decitabine in people with Healthy, run by EpiDestiny, 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 7 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 22 Jan 2020. 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?
Absorption of Decitabine (time frame: 24 hours). 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 22 Jan 2020.
