About this study

Official title: A Phase 4, Randomized-withdrawal, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel-group Study to Investigate the Clinical Benefit of Midodrine Hydrochloride in Male and Female Subjects With Symptomatic Orthostatic Hypotension

To study the effect of midodrine against the symptoms of orthostatic hypotension

Read the detailed description

The efficacy of midodrine will be assessed in those subjects who have severe symptoms of orthostatic hypotension when not taking midodrine and are controlled when taking midodrine. The study will involve approximately 9 overnight stays.

Being tested
Midodrine HCl, Placebo

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent of Subjects Who Failed to Maintain a Response

    Failure to maintain a response was defined as any randomized subject that met both criterion 1 and criterion 2 below on Day 16: 1. The Orthostatic Hypotension Symptom Assessment (OHSA) Item 1 score increased by >=4 points compared to baseline. OHSA Item 1 is a dizziness scale that is scored on a range from 0 (no dizziness) to 10 (severe dizziness). A lower score indicates less severe symptoms. 2. There was an increase in the number of syncopal/near syncopal events or severity of events within 15 minutes of standing compared to those observed at baseline. Syncope was defined as a loss of consciousness, and near syncope was defined as a feeling (e.g., dizziness, lightheadedness, feeling faint, feeling as though one would black out) that, without intervention, would lead to a loss of consciousness.

    Measured: 30 minutes post-dose on Day 16

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Midodrine HCl in people with Symptomatic Orthostatic Hypotension, run by Shire at 32 sites in 4 countries.

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 10 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 9 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 32 sites in United States, Slovakia, Poland, Czechia. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Oct 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percent of Subjects Who Failed to Maintain a Response (time frame: 30 minutes post-dose on Day 16). 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 9 Jun 2021.
