What is being measured

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

  1. Bioequivalence based on Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for Sulfadoxine and Pyrimethamine.

    The average bioequivalence of the products will be concluded if the two-sided 90 % confidence interval for the test to reference ratio of the population means is within 80.00 - 125.00 % for the ln transformed data Cmax of sulfadoxine \& pyrimethamine

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curves (AUC0 - 72) for Sulfadoxine and Pyrimethamine

    The average bioequivalence of the products will be concluded if the two-sided 90 % confidence interval for the test to reference ratio of the population means is within 80.00 - 125.00 % for the ln transformed data AUC0 -72 of sulfadoxine \& pyrimethamine

    Measured: 72 hours

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Obtaining the Tmax (Time to reach maximum concentration) for Sulfadoxine and Pyrimethamine

    The descriptive statistics including Maximum, Minimum and Median values will be measured for Tmax

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Number of participant with treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.

    ECG QTc Interval (safety and tolerability) Clinically significant abnormal deviations in ECG QTc interval

    Measured: ECG recording will be performed 4 hours post- dosing and at the end of the study (at 72.00 hours post dosing) as follow-up tests

  3. Number of participant with treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.

    Blood pressure (safety and tolerability) Clinically significant abnormal deviations. Normal range of blood pressure > 90/60 and <140/90 mmHg. Treatment will be offered to those subjects whom blood pressure drops to 90/60 mm Hg or less and the subject will be excluded in case of not responding to treatment

    Measured: At 1-hour pre-dosing; 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 23 hours post-dosing (±45 minutes of scheduled time). Blood pressure will also be measured at 48 and 72 hours post-dosing upon ambulatory sample collection.

  4. Number of participant with treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.

    Pulse (safety and tolerability) Clinically significant abnormal deviations. Normal range of Pulse 60-100 Bpm

    Measured: At 1-hour pre-dosing; 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 23 hours post-dosing (±45 minutes of scheduled time). Pulse will also be measured at 48 and 72 hours post-dosing upon ambulatory sample collection.

  5. Number of participant with treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.

    Temperature (safety and tolerability) Clinically significant abnormal deviations. The temperature will be measured axillary, orally or using infrared thermometer, standardized across all subjects. Normal range of temperature 36.5-37.5 ºC.

    Measured: At 1-hour pre-dosing; 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22 & 23 hours postdosing (±45 minutes of scheduled time).Temperature will also be measured at 48 and 72 hours post-dosing upon ambulatory sample.

  6. Number of participant with treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.

    Respiratory rate (safety and tolerability) Clinically significant abnormal deviations. Normal range of respiratory rate 12-18 B/M

    Measured: At 1-hour pre-dosing; 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22 & 23 hours postdosing (±45 minutes of scheduled time).Respiratory rate will also be measured at 48 and 72 hours post-dosing upon ambulatory sample.

  7. Number of participant with treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.

    Hematology (Safety and Tolerability) Hematology test will include Complete blood count

    Measured: At the end of the study (at 72.00 hours post dosing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Sulfadoxine/Pyrimethamine dispersible tablets, 250 mg sulfadoxine / 12.5 mg pyrimethamine & 500 mg sulfadoxine / 25 mg pyrimethamine and G-COSPE® tablets in people with Bioequivalence, run by Emzor Pharmaceutical Industries Limited.

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 11 inclusion and 6 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 11 Aug 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.

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?

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?

Bioequivalence based on Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for Sulfadoxine and Pyrimethamine. (time frame: 72 hours). The study lists 2 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 11 Aug 2022.
