About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Two Period Cross-over, Single Centre Trial in Healthy Subjects Investigating the Influence on the Pharmacokinetics of Ethinylestradiol and Levonorgestrel in an Oral Contraceptive Drug After Multiple Dose Administration of Liraglutide

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to investigate if liraglutide changes AUC (area under the curve) of ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel administered as a combination contraceptive drug (Neovletta®).

Being tested
liraglutide, placebo, levonorgestrel / ethinylestradiol
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • liraglutideDrug

    Administered with daily subcutaneous injections for approximately 3 weeks in each treatment period in random order

  • placeboDrug

    Administered with daily subcutaneous injections for approximately 3 weeks in each treatment period in random order

  • levonorgestrel / ethinylestradiolDrug

    One single oral tablet after the liraglutide or placebo dose administration at the end of each treatment period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing liraglutide and levonorgestrel / ethinylestradiol in people with Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Novo Nordisk A/S 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 12 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 24 Jan 2017. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

AUC of ethinylestradiol. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01508858, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Jan 2017.
