About this study

Official title: A Single Centre, Cross-over, Single Dose, Two Period, Randomized, Open Label Bioequivalence Study of Anplag® 90mg (Ticagrelor) Tablet With Brilinta® 90 mg (Ticagrelor) Tablet in Healthy Adult Male Pakistani Subjects Under Fasting Condition

Single oral administration of study drugs (i.e. Anplag® \& Brilinta®) in Two periods after at least 10 hours fasting. The periods will be separated by a washout period of 7 days. The purpose of this study is to compare the bioavailability of Anplag® 90mg (Ticagrelor) Tablet with Brilinta® 90 mg (Ticagrelor) Tablet under fasting conditions in healthy Pakistani male subjects.

Read the detailed description

The subjects will be randomly assigned in period 1 to T or R sequence and will be administered the study drugs T (Anplag® 90 mg) or R (Brilinta® 90 mg) with 240 mL ambient temperature water following at least 10 hours fasting. Blood samples will be withdrawn at pre-determined time points for estimation of plasma drug concentration upto 48 hours post dose. the subjects will be crossed over in Period 2 separated by a washout period of 7 days and administered RT sequence in period 2. Similar procedure of blood sampling will be applied for estimation of plasma drug concentration upto 48 hours post dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Anplag (Ticagrelor 90 mg) and Brilinta (Ticagrelor 90 mg) in people with Healthy Individuals, 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 13 inclusion and 22 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: 0-48 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04941196, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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.
