About this study

Official title: A PHASE IV, OPEN-LABEL STUDY OF THE ADHESION AND DERMAL TOLERABILITY OF EMSAM (SELEGILINE TRANSDERMAL SYSTEM) IN HEALTHY ADULT SUBJECTS OF TWO AGE GROUPS (18 - 64 YEARS, AND 65 YEARS AND OLDER)

Examine adhesive and dermal tolerability of EMSAm 6mg/24hr and 12mg/24hr in healthy elderly and non-elderly subjects.

Read the detailed description

The primary objectives of this study are to examine the adhesion characteristics and dermal tolerability (irritation) of EMSAM in two populations consisting of non-elderly (18 - 64 years) and elderly (65 years and older) healthy volunteers. EMSAM will be dosed over the range of proposed sizes for marketing [(6mg/24hr), (9mg/24hr), and (12mg/24hr)]. Adhesion and tolerability (irritation) will be examined at three different application site areas (upper torso [includes chest and back], upper arm, and upper thigh).

The secondary objective is to examine if the adhesion characteristics and dermal tolerability (irritation) of EMSAM may be influenced by the secondary factors such as gender, race, physical activity, and bathing/showering practices.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing EMSAM (Selegiline Transdermal System) 6mg/24Hr, EMSAM (Selegiline Transdermal System) 9mg/24Hr and EMSAM (Selegiline Transdermal System) 12mg/24hr in people with Healthy, run by Somerset Pharmaceuticals at 2 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 7 inclusion and 19 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 19 Sep 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Adhesion characteristics and dermal tolerability (irritation) of EMSAM in two populations consisting of non-elderly (18 - 64 years) and elderly (65 years and older) healthy volunteers. (time frame: 21 Days). 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 19 Sep 2007.
