About this study

Official title: Single-dose Nicotine Pharmacokinetics With Four Oral Nicotine Replacement Products. A Study in Healthy Smokers.

Single-dose nicotine pharmacokinetics with four oral nicotine replacement products. A study in healthy smokers.

Read the detailed description

Forty-four (44) healthy male or female subjects will be included. Single doses of an experimental Nicotine medicated chewing gum 6 mg and Nicorette® Freshfruit gum 4 mg and 2 mg and NiQuitin™ Mint lozenge 4 mg will be administered in a standardized mode, on four separate treatment visits. Periods without nicotine replacement therapy, each lasting for at least 36 hours, will separate the treatment visits. The subjects will abstain from smoking from 8 pm the evening before each treatment visit and until the end of each visit. Blood for pharmacokinetic analyses will be drawn before, and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, and 60 minutes as well as at 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 hours after, product administration. Subjects will be monitored to capture any adverse events that may occur.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax, which is the maximum observed plasma concentration, measured in nanograms/milliliter (ng/mL)

    Measured: 12 hours post-dose

  2. Area Under the Curve (AUC)(0-t)

    AUC(0-t), which is the area under the plasma concentration verses time curve from start of drug administration until the time of the last measurable plasma concentration, calculated as hour * nanograms (ng) per milliliter (mL).

    Measured: 12 hours post-dose

  3. AUC (0-∞)

    AUC (0-∞), which is the area under the plasma concentration-vs.-time curve from start of drug administration until infinity.

    Measured: 12 hours post-dose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. AUC(10 min)

    AUC(10 min) which is the area under the plasma concentration verses time curve from start of drug administration until 10 minutes

    Measured: 10 minutes post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nicotine Medicated Gum, 4 mg Nicotine Gum and 2 mg Nicotine Gum in people with Tobacco Dependence, run by McNeil AB at 1 site in Sweden.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 10 Jul 2012. 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 Sweden. 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.

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 Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) (time frame: 12 hours post-dose). The study lists 3 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 10 Jul 2012.
