About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Randomized, Single-dose (0.25mg), Four-period Fully Replicated Bioequivalence Study of Digoxin Tablet Under Fasted and Fed Conditions in Healthy Subjects

The study followed an open-label, randomized, single-dose (0.25mg), four-period full-replicate design encompassing both fasted and fed conditions. Subjects were randomized into two sequences, labeled as group A (TRTR) and group B (RTRT), for the four sessions. By the use of a random table produced by SAS statistical software, the individuals were assigned at random to administer a single-dose (0.25mg) of either the reference or the test formulation of digoxin tablets. During the fasted study phase, participants were randomly administered digoxin tablets after an overnight fast of a minimum of 10 hours, and fasting continued for 4 hours post dose. During the fed trial, subjects consumed a high-fat breakfast 30 minutes before administering digoxin tablets, which consisted of approximately 500 to 600 kcal of fat, 150 kcal of protein, and 250 kcal of carbohydrates, totaling around 800 to 1000 kcal calories. The breakfast must be finished within 30 minutes. Digoxin tablets were administered to each subject in a single dosage with 240 mL of water. Each subject was assigned equitably and at random to one of the two groups. A 14-day washout period was implemented between each period. In the fasted study, blood samples were collected at various time points: predose, 0.17, 0.33, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120 and 144 hours after dosing. Similarly, in the fed study, blood samples were collected at predose and at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120 and 144 hours after dosing. Following collection, the samples underwent centrifugation at 1700g for 10 minutes at 4℃. The resulting supernatant was then divided into two aliquots and stored at -80℃ until further analysis was conducted. A validated high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method was employed to assess the level of digoxin in plasma samples. The PK analysis of the plasma concentration-time curve was performed using a non-compartmental modeling method with Phoenix WinNonlin software version 8.2.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Digoxin in people with Heart Failure, run by Xiangya Hospital of Central South University at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 21 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 9 Aug 2024. 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 China. 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?

plasma concentration in fasted study. (time frame: predose, 0.17, 0.33, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120 and 144 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 9 Aug 2024.
