About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Replicate Treatment, 2-Part, Crossover Study to Assess Bioequivalence and Adhesion Properties Between Two Granisetron Transdermal Patches Manufactured at Different Sites.

The study is designed to evaluate the BE and adhesion properties of granisetron transdermal patches manufactured at 2 different sites. The study has been designed in accordance with the FDA Guidance for Industry. Bioequivalence will be based on the Cmax and AUC to determine the peak and total drug exposure, respectively.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, randomized, 2-part, open-label, crossover study in healthy subjects to establish bioequivalence (Part 1) and evaluate adhesion (Part 2) between granisetron transdermal patches manufactured at 2 different sites (Sancuso [test] and Sancuso [reference]).

Each part of the study will consist of a screening period, check-in days, treatment periods, washout period (Part 1 only), and an end-of-study visit. The duration of subject participation, excluding screening, for Part 1 is approximately 39 days and for Part 2 is approximately 17 days.

Study groups in NCT05027646
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Part 1 - BioequivalenceExperimentalBioequivalence will be measured in approximately 42 healthy male and female subjects at a single center in the US to achieve at least 33 completers.
Receives: Drug: Sancuso - Part 1
Part 2 - AdhesionExperimentalAdhesion will be measured in approximately 90 healthy male and female subjects are planned to be enrolled at a single center in the US.
Receives: Drug: Sancuso - Part 2

What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve AUC (0-t)

    AUC from time 0 to the time of the last measurable plasma concentration, calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve AUC (0-inf)

    AUC from time 0 extrapolated to infinity, calculated as (AUC 0-t + [Clast/λz]) where Clast is the last measurable plasma concentration

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Maximum concentration after dosing

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Maximum concentration (Tmax)

    Time to reach the maximum plasma concentration after dosing (Tmax)

    Measured: 6 months

  5. T1/2

    Terminal phase half-life

    Measured: 6 months

  6. CL/F

    Total clearance after dosing

    Measured: 6 months

  7. Vz/F

    Apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase, calculated as (CL/F)λz

    Measured: 6 months

  8. Mean adhesion score (FDA scale)

    Adhesion of the patch to the skin is assessed by the FDA 0-4 scoring system. The scoring for adhesion is: 0 = ≥ 90% adhered (essentially no lift off the skin), 1 = ≥ 75% to < 90% adhered (some edges only lifting off the skin), 2 = ≥ 50% to < 75% adhered (less than half of the patch lifting off the skin), 3 = > 0% to < 50% adhered but not detached (more than half of the patch lifting off the skin without falling off), and 4 = 0% adhered (patched completely off the skin). Adhesion is assessed daily when patches are insitu. The mean adhesion score will be derived from its individual adhesion scores at each assessment time point, averaged across all the equally spaced time points (except baseline timepoint). Difference in mean adhesion score between test and reference transdermal patches will be compared using a mixed-model analysis of variance.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of subjects with treatment related adverse events will be as assessed as mild, moderate or severe and will be summarized descriptively and presented as frequency and percentage.

    Actual values and changes from baseline for clinical laboratory test results, vital sign measurements and 12-lead ECG results will be summarized by test and reference patches at each time point using descriptive statistics (number of subjects, mean, SD, median, minimum and maximum)

    Measured: 6 Months

  2. Adhesion performance score (FDA Scale)

    Adhesion of the patch to the skin is assessed by the FDA 0-4 scoring system. The scoring for adhesion is: 0 = ≥ 90% adhered (essentially no lift off the skin), 1 = ≥ 75% to < 90% adhered (some edges only lifting off the skin), 2 = ≥ 50% to < 75% adhered (less than half of the patch lifting off the skin), 3 = > 0% to < 50% adhered but not detached (more than half of the patch lifting off the skin without falling off), and 4 = 0% adhered (patched completely off the skin). Adhesion is assessed daily when patches are insitu. Proportion of subjects with adhesion performance score of interest will be compared between the test and reference transdermal patches. Time to mean adhesion score more than or equal to 2 will be investigated graphically if data warrant.

    Measured: 6 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Sancuso - Part 1 and Sancuso - Part 2 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Kyowa Kirin, Inc. 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 7 inclusion and 27 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 14 Jun 2024. 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. 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?

Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve AUC (0-t) (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 8 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 NCT05027646, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 14 Jun 2024.
