What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Japanese study participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)

    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study medication, whether or not considered related to the study medication. The occurrence and incidence of TEAEs will also be summarized by intensity and by relationship to the investigational medicinal product (IMP).

    Measured: From Baseline to the end of the Safety-Follow-Up (up to Day 10)

  2. Percentage of Japanese study participants with serious adverse event (SAEs)

    A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose:

    1. Results in death
    2. Is life-threatening
    3. Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization
    4. Results in persistent disability/incapacity
    5. Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect
    6. Important medical events refered in the Protocol.

    Measured: From Baseline to the end of the Safety-Follow-Up (up to Day 10)

  3. Percentage of Chinese study participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)

    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study medication, whether or not considered related to the study medication. The occurrence and incidence of TEAEs will also be summarized by intensity and by relationship to the investigational medicinal product (IMP).

    Measured: From Baseline to the end of the Safety-Follow-Up (up to Day 10)

  4. Percentage of Chinese study participants with serious adverse events (SAEs)

Individual data sharing
No: Due to the small sample size in this trial, IPD cannot be adequately anonymized i.e., there is a reasonable likelihood that individual participants could be re-identified. For this reason, data from this trial cannot be shared.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Alprazolam in people with Healthy Study Participants, run by UCB Biopharma SRL 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 6 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 17 May 2021. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Percentage of Japanese study participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) (time frame: From Baseline to the end of the Safety-Follow-Up (up to Day 10)). The study lists 10 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 17 May 2021.
