About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics and Excretion of Albendazole and Its Metabolites in Saliva in Healthy Volunteers

This project will develop and assess the feasibility and acceptability of a salive-based assay to monitor adherence to Mass Drug Administration (MDA) campaigns within Soil-transmitted helminthiasis (STH) control programs, evaluating the salive and serum pharmacokinetics of ALBENDAZOLE (ABZ) and its metabolites.The final goal is to obtain a field ready tool for the measurement of adherence to anthelmintic treatment at a community level that serves as a coverage/adherence indicator and a reference standard for other monitoring tools.

Being tested
Albendazole

What participants receive

What is being measured

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

  1. Salive albendazole levels

    Albendazole and its metabolites will be measured in salive samples through high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

    Measured: 72 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Albendazole in people with Pharmacological Action, run by Universidad Nacional de Salta.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 14 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Alejandro J Krolewiecki, MD (+5491131838673, alekrol@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Salive albendazole levels (time frame: 72 hours). 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 14 Jul 2022.
