About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Single-Center, Randomized, Parallel Group, Multiple Administration, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Pharmacodynamics of YKP10811 in Patients With Chronic or Functional Constipation

This will be a single-center, randomized, parallel group, multiple dose administration, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effects of YKP10811 on gastric, small bowel, and colonic transit in patients with Chronic Constipation or Functional Constipation. Four groups including a placebo group will be enrolled and will receive multiple oral doses of YKP10811 or matching placebo.

Read the detailed description

If the participant fulfills the initial eligibility criteria, the patient will be randomized to 1 of the active treatment groups or placebo. During the treatment period, patients will receive study medication once daily for 8 days. Patients will undergo scintigraphic assessment of gastric, small bowel and colonic transit of solids over the 48-hour period.

Patients will be males or females, 18 through 65 years of age with a body mass index (BMI) of 19 through 40 kg/m2, with Chronic Constipation or Functional Constipation and no evidence of evacuation disorder as assessed by the Investigator and meet all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Colonic Geometric Center (GC) at 24 hours

    The colonic GC at 24 hours is the measurement of the move of the food within the GI track.

    Measured: 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Gastric emptying half time

    The gastric emptying half time is the time to empty the half of the ingested solid food in the stomach.

    Measured: 4 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing YKP10811 Drug Product Capsule in people with Chronic Constipation and Functional Constipation, run by SK Life Science, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 9 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 4 Jul 2014. 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 United States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Colonic Geometric Center (GC) at 24 hours (time frame: 48 hours). 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 NCT01523184, 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 4 Jul 2014.
