About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Single-Center, Open-Label, Single-Dose, Pharmacokinetic Study to Evaluate Ibuprofen (IBU) 62.5 mg and Acetaminophen (APAP) 125 mg/5 ml in an Oral Liquid Suspension Fixed-Dose Combination Product in Children Aged 6 to 11 Years

The purpose of this study will be to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of the Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) IBU 62.5 milligram (mg)/APAP 125 mg per 5 milliliter (mL) suspension in children 6 to 11 years of age, inclusive, to satisfy Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA) requirements.

Read the detailed description

This will be a single-center, open-label PK study to assess the pharmacokinetic profile of IBU and APAP from a single oral dose of FDC IBU 62.5 mg/APAP 125 mg per 5 mL liquid suspension in children. Following an overnight fast of at least 8 hours, participants will receive a low-fat breakfast approximately 2.5 hours prior to dosing. The study will enroll approximately 12 children between the ages of 6 and 11 years, inclusive, with the goal of ensuring that at least 10 evaluable participants complete the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus (Vs.) Time Curve Calculated from Time 0 to the Last Measurable Sampling Time Point (AUC0-t) for Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen

    AUC(0-t) will be defined as the area under the plasma concentration Vs. time curve calculated from time 0 to the last measurable sampling time point, t and will be computed using the linear trapezoidal rule. Blood samples will be collected at indicated time points for the analysis of AUC(0-t).

    Measured: Pre-dose (within 1 hour prior to dosing) and at 5, 15, 30 minutes and 1 ,1.25, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12 hours post dose on Day 1

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration Vs. Time Curve Calculated from Time 0 To Infinity (AUC0-inf) for Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen

    AUC0-inf will be defined as the area under the plasma concentration Vs. time curve calculated from time 0 to infinity. AUC0-inf equal to (=) AUC0-t addition (+) Clast divided by (/) λz, where Clast will be the concentration at the last measurable sampling time point and λz will be the terminal elimination rate constant. Blood samples will be collected at indicated timepoints for the analysis of AUC0-inf.

    Measured: Pre-dose (within 1 hour prior to dosing) and at 5, 15, 30 minutes and 1, 1.25, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12 hours post dose on Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Test Product in people with Pain, run by HALEON at 1 site in United States.

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 23 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jun 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 United States. 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?

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?

Contact Haleon Response Center (+441932959500, ww.clinical-trial-register@haleon.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus (Vs.) Time Curve Calculated from Time 0 to the Last Measurable Sampling Time Point (AUC0-t) for Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen (time frame: Pre-dose (within 1 hour prior to dosing) and at 5, 15, 30 minutes and 1 ,1.25, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12 hours post dose on Day 1). The study lists 10 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 30 Jun 2026.
