About this study

Official title: Bioavailability of Curcumin Capsules in Healthy Adult Subjects: an Open, Randomized, Single-dose, Two-period, Two-sequence Crossover Study

A single-center, open-label, randomized, two-period, crossover study design of pharmacokinetics and bioavailability in healthy adult male and female subjects under fasting conditions.

Read the detailed description

Upgraded curcumin capsules(CuminUP60®) is made from curcumin with a natural extraction content of 95% and excipients through physical process microprocessing, with a curcumin content of more than 60%. CuminUP60® capsules are 400 mg/ capsules and ordinary curcumin capsules are 400 mg/ capsules. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the bioavailability by comparing the pharmacokinetics of CuminUP60® capsule with that of curcumin capsule before the prescription improvement.

12 cases are planned to be enrolled.According to the random table, each subject will be randomly assigned to one of two groups (group 1: A/B, group 2: B/A). The cleaning period between the two doses is 7 days. Subjects were given the test preparation (A) or the control preparation (B) on the first day of the first cycle of the trial, and were temporarily allowed to leave the phase I clinical research center after 72 hours of blood sample collection and vital signs examination after the completion of the medication. After a 7-day wash period, on the 8th day of the second cycle, the subject will be cross-administered with the control formulation (B) or the test formulation (A), all procedures are the same as in the first cycle.

On the 11th day (the second cycle), subjects will undergo physical examination, ECG examination, assessment of vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, body temperature), laboratory examinations (blood biochemistry, blood routine, urine routine, detailed examination items are shown in the appendix 1) Female subjects must undergo a blood pregnancy test and then be allowed to leave the research center.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CuminUP60® and Curcumin capsules in people with Healthy Adult Subjects, run by The Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 16 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 10 Aug 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 China. 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(Peak Plasma Concentration ) (time frame: Day 0 to Day 3). The study lists 4 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 10 Aug 2021.
