About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Pharmacokinetic Study of the Synera Patch Applied for 2-, 4-, and 12-hours and a Lidocaine/Tetracaine Patch Without Heat Applied for 4 Hours in Healthy Adult Volunteers

This study will measure the amount of lidocaine and tetracaine in the blood after 2-, 4-, and 12-hour application of 4 Synera patches and a 4 hour application of 4 patches without heat.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profiles of lidocaine and tetracaine after 2-, 4-, and 12-hour application of 4 Synera® patches and a 4-hour application of 4 lidocaine/tetracaine patches without heat in healthy adult subjects and to monitor the frequency and nature of adverse events. In addition to determining the pharmacokinetics for a one-time application of 4 Synera® patches, steady-state pharmacokinetics were modeled and residual patch concentrations of lidocaine and tetracaine were determined.

What participants receive

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

  • SyneraDrug

    Also called Lidocaine 70 mg/Tetracaine 70 mg topical patch

    Subjects received 4 Synera® patches for 2 hours in Session 1 and 4 patches for 12 hours in Session 4. During Study Session 2, subjects were randomly assigned to 4-hour applications of either 4 Synera® patches or 4 lidocaine/tetracaine patches without heat ("no heat patches") and were crossed over during Study Session 3.

What is being measured

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

  1. Peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of Synera after application of 4 patches

    Peak plasma concentration of Synera after application of 4 patches for 2-, 4- and 12-hours

    Measured: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 8, 10, 12 hours post-dose

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of participants with adverse events

    Measured: 24 days

  2. Area under the plasma concentration versus time (AUC) of Synera

    Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve of Synera after application of 4 patches for 2-, 4-, and 12 hours

    Measured: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 8, 10, 12 hours post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Synera in people with Healthy, run by ZARS Pharma 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 3 inclusion and 8 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 17 Oct 2012. 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. 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?

Peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of Synera after application of 4 patches (time frame: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 8, 10, 12 hours post-dose). 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 NCT01602757, 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 17 Oct 2012.
