About this study

Official title: A Single-Dose, Open-Label, Randomized, Four-Way Crossover Study to Assess the Dose-Proportionality of the Pharmacokinetics of Tapentadol, Given as Tamper-Resistant Tablets, in Healthy Japanese and Korean Male Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dose-proportionality of the pharmacokinetics of tapentadol (CG5503) in healthy Japanese and Korean adult male participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-dose, open-label, single-center, randomized, four-way crossover study, ie, participants and investigator know the identity of the drug, which is assigned by chance, like flipping a coin, and participants may receive different interventions sequentially during the study. The study will consist of 4 treatment periods. A single dose of tapentadol (CG5503) will be administered orally with 240 mL of water under fasted conditions. All participants will receive 1 of the following 4 oral treatments in each period.

Treatment A: One 25-mg tablet (25 mg) of tapentadol (CG5503) Treatment B: One 50-mg tablet (50 mg) of tapentadol (CG5503) Treatment C: One 100-mg tablet (100 mg) of tapentadol (CG5503) Treatment D: Two 100-mg tablets (200 mg) of tapentadol (CG5503) Each period will be separated by 7 - 14 days.

tapentadol (CG5503) ER two 100-mg TRF, tapentadol (CG5503) ER 50-mg TRF, tapentadol (CG5503) ER 25-mg TRF, tapentadol (CG5503) ER 100-mg TRF

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing tapentadol (CG5503) ER two 100-mg TRF, tapentadol (CG5503) ER 50-mg TRF and tapentadol (CG5503) ER 25-mg TRF in people with Healthy Volunteer, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C..

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 profile, as measured by Cmax, AUC, tmax, kel, t1/2 (time frame: Two 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 31 Jan 2014.
