About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of DDP225 in Patients With Chronic Functional Vomiting

This is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, multicenter study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of DDP225 in patients with chronic functional vomiting. Male or female patients from 18 to 65 years of age with a functional vomiting history for at least 12 weeks in the preceding 12 months or cyclic vomiting history with at least 3 episodes in the previous 12 months are eligible. A total of 30 eligible patients with chronic functional vomiting will be enrolled.

The total duration of study participation for an individual patient is approximately 15 weeks (105 days) from the initial screening visit to final study evaluations. The total duration of dosing with study medication (either DDP225 or placebo) is 12 weeks.

Patients who satisfy all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria are eligible to enter the Treatment Period and will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups.

After a patient is randomized and enters the Treatment Period, he/she will take the appropriate study medication once a day for 84 days and return to the clinic at two week intervals for a total of six visits during the Treatment Period. During the Treatment Period, patients will maintain a daily diary and complete questionnaires. One week after completing the 84-day Treatment Period, patients return to the clinic for final safety evaluations which include a physical examination, electrocardiogram, and clinical laboratory testing.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing DDP225 in people with Vomiting, run by Dynogen Pharmaceuticals at 6 sites 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 4 inclusion and 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Oct 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Frequency and intensity of nausea and vomiting episodes. 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 12 Oct 2007.
