About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Randomized, Two Way Cross Over, Two Period, Two Treatment, Two Sequence Bioequivalence Study of Klaribact (Clarithromycin) 125mg/5ml Suspension Compared With Klaricid (Clarithromycin) 125mg/5ml Suspension in 24 Healthy Adult Subjects Under Fasting Condition.

A two way crossover BE study will be performed to evaluate the comparative bioavailability of Klaribact (Clarithromycin 125 mg/5ml) suspension (Merck Pvt. Ltd, Pakistan) with Klaricid (Clarithromycin 125mg/5ml) suspension (Abbot Laboratories Pakistan Limited) at the clinical site (CBSCR), Karachi Pakistan.

Read the detailed description

The Bioequivalence study of Klaribact Suspension will be conducted on 24 healthy participants. Finally selected subjects will be divided into two groups, Group A and Group B, with 12 subjects in each group. The study will be consisted of two periods, Period I and Period II, each comprising of 35 hours, 11 hours before and 24 hours after the drug administration. A washout period of 6 days will be provided between the two periods to ensure the absence of carry over effect. Each group (A \& B) will be treated with either of the two sequences, TR or RT, in Period I and the sequence will be inter-changed in Period II. blood samples from each volunteer will be collected at specific time points to analyze plasma concentration of Clarithromycin.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Klaribact 125mg/5ml Suspension and Klaricid 125mg/5ml Suspension in people with Healthy, 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 20 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 29 Apr 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.

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?

maximum plasma concentration (time frame: up to 24 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 29 Apr 2022.
