About this study

Official title: Cross-over Randomized Study to Determine Dose-dependent Kinetics of Thiamin in Healthy Volunteers With and Without Functional OCT1 Hepatic Transporters

This study investigates the differences in thiamin (vitamin B1) kinetic parameters in two cohorts of healthy volunteers:

Cohort 1) OCT1 wild type genotypes n = 12 Cohort 2) OCT1 deficient genotypes n = 12 Participants will be selected according to their OCT1 genotypes and to achieve best matching according to sex, age, BMI, alcohol consumption, and smoking between Cohort 1 and 2, respectively.

The purpose of this study is:

  1. To determine the influence of OCT1 genetic variants on dose-dependent thiamin kinetics after oral administration.
  2. To elucidate whether OCT1 genetic variants impact the kinetic properties of orally vs. intravenously administered thiamin.
Read the detailed description

The study is designed as a 5-arm cross-over, open-label, randomized single oral dose comparison (5 mg, 10 mg, 50 mg, and 200 mg thiamin). A fifth arm includes applying 5 mg thiamin intravenously.

A single oral dose of thiamin will be administered in four intervention arms (arm 1: 200 mg, arm 2: 50 mg, arm 3: 10 mg, arm 4: 5 mg) as a drinking solution with 240 ml of still water after an overnight fast. These four arms will be put into practice at the same time with each participant completing all four arms in random order with a wash-out period of at least one week between each arm.

After analyzing the four oral arms, we decided to administer a single i.v. dose of 5 mg thiamin in arm 5.

A total of 15 blood samples will be taken at defined time points (baseline; 0.25; 0.5; 0.75; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0; 2.5; 3.0; 3.5; 4.0; 6.0; 8.0; 10.0; 24.0 h). At each time point, blood will be collected (4.9 ml for plasma and 2.7 ml for whole blood) to determine thiamin, TMP and TDP, and biomarkers of OCT1 transport activity. At baseline, 2x 2.7 ml EDTA blood samples will be collected for DNA isolation if the particular volunteer has not had a genotypical validation in another study of our Institute.

The total amount of blood collected for each participant is 456 ml at eight kinetic visits and 10 ml at the Screening.

After intake of the thiamin solution, participants will drink 100 ml of sparkling water every hour to stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis. After 4 hours the participants will be served a meal low in thiamin content. Urine will be collected during the first 10 hours after thiamin administration. Monitoring of blood pressure and heart rate will take place for the first 4 hours after administration. Volunteers will stay in the Clinical Research Unit of the Institute of Pharmacology for the first 10 hours after administration.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

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 7 inclusion and 17 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jan 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 Germany. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Thiamin plasma concentrations expressed as Area under the Curve (AUC0-24 hours) (time frame: 24 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 24 Jan 2025.
