About this study

Official title: A Phase I, 2-Panel, Open-Label Study in Healthy Subjects to Investigate the Pharmacokinetic Interaction Between TMC435 and the HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors Atorvastatin and Simvastatin

The purpose of this study is to evaluate effects of steady-state concentrations (constant concentration of medication in the blood) of TMC435 on the single dose pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the medication) of atorvastatin, the active metabolites ortho- and parahydroxylated atorvastatin, simvastatin and the active metabolite simvastatin acid. Plasma hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitory activity after a single dose of atorvastatin or simvastatin, either alone or in combination with TMC435 will be also evaluated.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase I, 2-panel, open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention) study in healthy participants to investigate the pharmacokinetic interaction between TMC435 and the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors atorvastatin and simvastatin. The study consists of a screening period (21 days prior to the first intake of study medication), a 17-day treatment period and a 5-7 days follow-up period. Approximately thirty six healthy participants will be equally divided to 2 panels (n=18 per panel). Within each panel all participants will receive the same treatments in the same order. In Panel 1, each participant will be administered a single oral 40-mg atorvastatin dose on Day 1 and Day 13. The participants will receive TMC435 at a dose of 150 mg once daily from Day 4 until Day 15. In Panel 2, each participant will be administered a single oral 40-mg simvastatin dose on Day 1 and Day 13. TMC435 at a dose of 150 mg will be administered once daily from Day 4 until Day 15. Treatment duration (including Day -1) will be 17 days for both panels (Panel 1 and Panel 2). Safety and tolerability will be evaluated throughout the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Effect of steady-state (constant concentration of medication in the blood) concentrations of TMC435 on the single dose pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the drug) of simvastatin and the active metabolite simvastatin acid

    Measured: Up to Day 16

  2. Effect of steady-state concentrations of TMC435 on the single dose pharmacokinetics of atorvastatin and the active metabolites ortho- and parahydroxylated atorvastatin

    Measured: Up to Day 16

  3. Plasma hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitory activity after a single dose of atorvastatin or simvastatin, either alone or in combination with TMC435

    Measured: Up to Day 16

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To evaluate the steady-state pharmacokinetics of TMC435 in the presence of atorvastatin or simvastatin

    Measured: Up to Day 16

  2. Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: Up to Day 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TMC435, Atorvastatin and Simvastatin in people with Healthy Participants, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 Mar 2013. 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?

Effect of steady-state (constant concentration of medication in the blood) concentrations of TMC435 on the single dose pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the drug) of simvastatin and the active metabolite simvastatin acid (time frame: Up to Day 16). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 4 Mar 2013.
