About this study

Methodology:

The study was an open label, randomized, crossover, 2 periods study in 20 healthy male/female volunteers. Subjects received 500 mg of the new formulation of soluble tablets vigabatrin or Sabril, as single oral administration in 2 different study periods depending on the randomization, with a 7-days wash out period between administrations

Read the detailed description

Objectives:

Primary objective:

Evaluate bioequivalence between a new paediatric formulation of vigabatrin (VGB-ST) and Sabril granules for oral administration.

Secondary objective:

  • Define pharmacokinetic parameters of the new paediatric formulation soluble tablets of vigabatrin (VGB-ST)
  • Assess the safety of the new formulation of soluble tablets VGB-ST versus Sabril
Being tested
VGB-ST

    The following pharmacokinetic parameters were determined from S(+) enantiomer of vigabatrin plasma concentrations: AUC0-t

    Measured: day 1 or 2

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Secondary pharmacokinetic parameters

    The following pharmacokinetic parameters were determined from S(+) enantiomer of vigabatrin plasma concentrations: AUC0-inf

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing VGB-ST in people with Therapeutic Equivalency, run by Orphelia Pharma at 1 site in France.

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 12 inclusion and 20 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 Jul 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 France. 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?

Primary pharmacokinetic parameters (Bioequivalence) (time frame: day 1 or 2). 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 13 Jul 2020.
