What is being measured

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

  1. RMS of COP in eye-open condition

    the area of the circle whose radius is the root mean square (RMS) value of center of pressure (COP) calculated by the stabilometer in eye-open condition

    Measured: 8 hour postdose

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. RMS of COP in eye-closed condition

    the area of the circle whose radius is the root mean square (RMS) value of center of pressure (COP) calculated by the stabilometer in eye-closed condition

    Measured: 8 hour postdose

  2. Trajectory of COP in eye-open condition

    the length of the total trajectory of center of pressure (COP) calculated by the stabilometer in eye-open condition

    Measured: 8 hour postdose

  3. Trajectory of COP in eye-closed condition

    the length of the total trajectory of center of pressure (COP) calculated by the stabilometer in eye-closed condition

    Measured: 8 hour postdose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TS-142 and Zopiclone in people with Healthy Subjects, run by Taisho Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 1 site in Japan.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 28 Feb 2025. 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 Japan. 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?

RMS of COP in eye-open condition (time frame: 8 hour postdose). 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 NCT05819710, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 28 Feb 2025.
