What is being measured

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

  1. The Primary Objective is to Assess the Safety of 13C Urea Administered by Inhalation.

    The primary endpoint is the safety of inhaled 13C urea assessed by adverse events including pulmonary findings and changes from baseline in physical examination findings, pulse oximetry results, pulmonary function test results, and vital signs.

    Measured: 6 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The Secondary Objective is to Assess the Kinetics of 13C Carbon Dioxide Production by Measuring the Isotopic Ratio of 13C to 12C in Exhaled Carbon Dioxide.

    Secondary endpoints are the isotopic ratios of 13C to 12C in exhaled carbon dioxide measured with the POCone detector (Meretek Diagnostics Group of Otsuka America Pharmaceutical, Rockville, MD) at 5, 10, and 15 minutes after study drug administration.

    Measured: 5 minutes post inhalation

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?

The Primary Objective is to Assess the Safety of 13C Urea Administered by Inhalation. (time frame: 6 hours). 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?
