Trial summary

The cholesterol-lowering drug rosuvastatin is a substrate of the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). BCRP is an efflux transporter expressed e.g. in the small intestine. It limits the oral bioavailability of rosuvastatin by transporting rosuvastatin from enterocytes back to the gut lumen. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: KF2019#1-tutkimus: Verihiutaleiden estäjän Vaikutus kolesterolilääkkeeseen

The cholesterol-lowering drug rosuvastatin is a substrate of the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). BCRP is an efflux transporter expressed e.g. in the small intestine. It limits the oral bioavailability of rosuvastatin by transporting rosuvastatin from enterocytes back to the gut lumen. Inhibition of BCRP can increase rosuvastatin bioavailability and systemic concentrations. Ticagrelor is a platelet aggregation inhibitor used in treatment and prevention of atherothrombotic events. Ticagrelor may inhibit BCRP in humans. This study is aimed to investigate the possible interaction of rosuvastatin with ticagrelor. Ten healthy male or female non-smoking volunteers aged 18-40 years are taken into the study. Primary endpoint is area under the plasma concentration-time curve of rosuvastatin.

Being tested
Placebo, Ticagrelor, Rosuvastatin

What is being measured

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

    Measured: Prior to and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 23, and 47 hours after administration of rosuvastatin

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Peak plasma concentration, half-life, time to peak plasma concentration, amount excreted, and renal clearance of rosuvastatin

    Measured: Prior to and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 23, and 47 hours after administration of rosuvastatin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ticagrelor and Rosuvastatin in people with Pharmacokinetics, run by Helsinki University Central Hospital at 1 site in Finland.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 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 Finland. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mikko Niemi, MD, PhD (+35894711, mikko.niemi@hus.fi), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Area under the plasma concentration - time curve of rosuvastatin (time frame: Prior to and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 23, and 47 hours after administration of rosuvastatin). 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 13 May 2022.
