- All sexes
- Healthy volunteers accepted
- Adult
Who may be able to join
- Male or female adults, 18-55 years of age, inclusive, at the time of Screening.
- Judged by the Investigator to be in generally good health at Screening based upon the results of a medical history, physical examination, 12-lead ECG, and clinical laboratory test results.

About this study
Official title: A Phase 1, Open Label, Drug Interaction Study to Evaluate the Effect of ZYN002 on the Pharmacokinetics of CYP3A4, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP1A2, CYP2C8, and CYP2B6 Probe Substrates, and Valproate in Healthy Adult Participants
This study is an open-label drug-drug interaction (DDI) study of ZYN002 transdermal gel and multiple drugs.
Read the detailed description
This study is a Phase 1, open-label, 2-part, fixed-sequence, 3-period DDI study to evaluate the effect of ZYN002 transdermal gel on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of probe substrates and their metabolites. In addition, this study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ZYN002 transdermal gel after multiple-dose topical application to healthy adult participants.
Part 1 - DDI with probe substrates for cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP1A2 administered as single oral doses followed by the staggered dosing of probe substrates for CYP2C8 and for CYP2B6 administered as single oral doses.
Part 2 - DDI with valproate (valproic acid [VPA]), a probe substrate for β-oxidation and glucuronidation.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Part 1 and Part 2 in people with Drug Interaction, run by Harmony Biosciences Management, Inc. at 1 site in Australia.
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 9 Feb 2026. 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 Australia. 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?
Maximum measure plasma concentration (Cmax) of probe substrates and metabolites (time frame: Days 1-3 (Period 1), Days 24-26 (Period 3)). The study lists 9 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 Feb 2026.
