About this study

This is a randomized, open-label, single-dose, five-period crossover, relative bioavailability study to evaluate tadalafil gummy 10mg and tadalafil oral tablets 10mg in healthy volunteers

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, single dose, randomized, five-period, crossover design study to evaluate the relative bioavailability of a single oral dose of tadalafil gummy 10 mg (Test) and tadalafil oral tablets 10 mg (Reference) under fasted conditions in healthy adult male and female subjects, and the impact on the bioavailability of tadalafil gummy sugar free 10 mg when administered with food, when administered with or without water, and when chewed or swallowed whole.

Each subject will receive tadalafil gummy (10 mg) or tadalafil tablet and thereby will be his/hers own control.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. maximum plasma cetirizine concentration (Cmax)

    PK blood samples to measure plasma concentrations of tadalafil will be collected by direct venipuncture or by use of an indwelling cannula. Blood will be collected into tubes containing K2EDTA for determination of plasma tadalafil concentration at time 0 (within 60 minutes pre-dose), 10, 20 minute post-dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours post-dose. Plasma tadalafil concentrations will be listed at each time point by subject and summarized by treatment at each time point using descriptive statistics (n, mean, standard deviation (SD), Coefficient of variation (CV%), median, minimum and maximum values). Pharmacokinetic calculations will be performed based on actual time of blood sample collection, using non-compartmental methods with Phoenix WinNonlin Version 8.1 (Certara USA, Inc., Princeton, New Jersey, USA). Plots of mean concentrations of plasma tadalafil versus time will be generated and Cmax will be generated from the plot.

    Measured: 96 hours

  2. area under the plasma drug concentration versus time curve (AUC)

    AUC will be determined using non-compartmental analysis methods (Phoenix WinNonlin software, version 8.1 or higher, Certara USA Inc., Princeton, NJ). AUC will be calculated to the last measurable observation (AUC0-t) and extrapolated to infinity (AUC0 ∞).

    Measured: 96 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. time to Cmax (Tmax)

    Tmax will be determined using non-compartmental analysis methods (Phoenix WinNonlin software, version 8.1 or higher, Certara USA Inc., Princeton, NJ).

    Measured: 96 hours

  2. elimination half-life (t½)

    t½ will be determined using non-compartmental analysis methods (Phoenix WinNonlin software, version 8.1 or higher, Certara USA Inc., Princeton, NJ).

    Measured: 96 hours

  3. terminal elimination rate constant (Kel).

    Kel will be determined using non-compartmental analysis methods (Phoenix WinNonlin software, version 8.1 or higher, Certara USA Inc., Princeton, NJ).

    Measured: 96 hours

Model description
Eligible subjects will receive a single oral dose of one of five treatments (Treatments A, B, C, D or E) in five separate periods in a randomly assigned sequence, with each treatment separated by an approximate 5-day washout period. In each study period, dosing will occur in the morning after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours. All doses will be administered under fasted conditions except for Treatment C, when tadalafil gummy 10 mg will be administered after consumption of a high-calorie, high-fat breakfast. All doses will be administered with approximately 240 mL of room temperature water except for Treatment D, when tadalafil gummy 10 mg dose will be administered without water. All doses of tadalafil gummy 10 mg will be chewed before swallowing except for Treatment E, when subjects will be instructed to swallow the dose whole.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tadalafil 10 MG in people with Erectile Dysfunction, run by Seattle Gummy Company.

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 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact President (2062570464, clinicaltrial@seattlegummy.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

maximum plasma cetirizine concentration (Cmax) (time frame: 96 hours). 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 Jun 2024.
