About this study

Official title: A Single Center, Open Label, Randomized, Single-dose, 2 Way Cross-over Study to Explore the Bioequivalence of Lamnet (Lamotrigine)100mg Tablet With the Reference Product Lamictal 100mg (Lamotrigine) Tablet Under Fasting Conditions in Healthy Male Pakistani Subjects

Single oral administrations of study drug (Lamnet and Lamictal) in two periods separated by a washout period of 14 days. The washout period will be calculated from day of dosing (Day 2) to at least 14 days post dose in each period.

Read the detailed description

The study drugs will be administered with 240 mL ambient Temperature water after at least 10 hours fasting in each periods.

Pharmacokinetic parameters include Lamotrigine plasma concentrations at the given sampling times. In each period 18 blood samples for plasma Lamotrigine concentrations will be taken on Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5, Day 6 and Day 7 (at 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 ,4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours post-dose.) The primary parameters to be analyzed are the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to the time of the last measurable time point t (AUClast or also termed as AUC0-t) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to infinity (AUCtotal or, also termed as AUC0-inf) and (AUC0-t)/ (AUC0-inf).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lamotrigine tablet in people with Bioequivalence, run by University of Karachi at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 17 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 8 Sep 2022. 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 Pakistan. 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?

Cmax (time frame: 0-120 hours post dose). 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 8 Sep 2022.
