About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous Pregabalin and Acetaminophen (Ofirmev®) in Healthy Volunteers

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single and multiple ascending dose study to determine a maximum tolerated dose of IV PGB and to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of an admixture of IV PGB and a fixed dose of 1300 mg IV APAP in healthy adult volunteers.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single and multiple ascending dose study to determine a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of IV PGB and to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of an admixture of IV PGB and a fixed dose of 1300 mg IV APAP in healthy adult volunteers.

Up to 60 subjects will be enrolled into one (1) of six (6) sequential cohorts (n=10 per cohort [8 APAP + PGB and 2 placebo]).

The dose for the first cohort will be 1300 mg APAP and 100 mg PGB. For subsequent cohorts, the dose of APAP will remain constant at 1300 mg while the dose of PGB will be varied (will start with 100 mg TID and then based on tolerability will be either increased or decreased by 25 mg) based on Safety Monitoring Committee decision.

The placebo will be the saline solution.

Being tested
Pregabalin 100mg, Acetaminophen 1300mg

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pregabalin 100mgDrug

    Also called PGB

    Pregabalin is a structural derivative of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma aminobutyric acid with anticonvulsant, anxiolytic and sleep-modulating properties.

  • Acetaminophen 1300mgDrug

    Also called Ofirmev

    Acetaminophen is a non-salicylate antipyretic and non-opioid analgesic agent.

1300 mg Acetaminophen and 100 mg +/- 25 IV PregabalinExperimentalDecisions to escalate or decrease the dose for Cohorts 2 through 6 will be dependent upon blinded review of emerging safety and tolerability data by the Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC). However, PK data is not part of the SMC review, but may be reviewed by a SMC designee at a later time.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Pregabalin 100mg and Acetaminophen 1300mg in people with Postoperative Pain, run by Nevakar, 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 10 inclusion and 10 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 5 Aug 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?

Treatment Related Adverse Events (time frame: 7 days). The study lists 2 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 5 Aug 2020.
