What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetic scope of GSK561679 after application in a solution and in a new tablet formula per treatment phase Complete gastric emptying of radioactive marker after application of GSK561679 Complete tablet breakdown per treatment phase

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. AUC(0-24h), AUC(0-t), AUC(0-∞) of GSK561679 after administration of GSK561679 in a solution (fasted) and in a new "optimized" tablet formulation (fasted and fed).

  2. lambda_Z (and t1/2), tlag, Ka, the time to absorb the 25, 50 and 90% of the total absorbed dose

  3. •Other pharmacokinetic parameters of GSK561679 per treatment phase •Safety and tolerability parameters, including adverse events, clinical laboratory,vital signs and 12-lead ECGs measured at each dosing period and throughout the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GSK561679 tablet or solution in people with Healthy Subjects, run by GlaxoSmithKline 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 10 inclusion and 24 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 Oct 2010. 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?

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?

Pharmacokinetic scope of GSK561679 after application in a solution and in a new tablet formula per treatment phase Complete gastric emptying of radioactive marker after application of GSK561679 Complete tablet breakdown per treatment phase. 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 Oct 2010.
