Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Healthy as determined by a responsible and experienced physician, based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests, and cardiac monitoring.
  • A subject with a clinical abnormality or laboratory parameters outside the reference range for the population being studied may be included only if the Investigator and the GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Medical Monitor agree that the finding is unlikely to introduce additional risk factors and will not interfere with the study procedures.
  • Male or female between 18 and 65 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
  • A female subject is eligible to participate if she is of: Child-bearing potential and is abstinent or agrees to use the contraception methods listed in Protocol for an appropriate period of time (as determined by the product label or investigator) prior to the start of dosing to sufficiently minimize the risk of pregnancy at that point. Female subjects must agree to use contraception until the follow up visit (i.e. until after the follow up visit is complete; Non-childbearing potential defined as pre-menopausal females with a documented tubal ligation or hysterectomy; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea [in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) > 40 million international units (MlU)/milliliter (ml) and estradiol <40 picograms (pg)/ml (<147 pmol/L) is confirmatory] Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use the contraception methods listed in Protocol if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of postmenopausal status prior to study enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2 to 4 weeks should elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method.
  • Women who are confirmed postmenopausal or permanently sterilized (e.g. tubal occlusion, tubal ligation, hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy).
  • Male subjects with female partners of child-bearing potential must agree to use one of the contraception methods listed in Protocol. This criterion must be followed from the time of the first dose of study medication until the follow up visit.

  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin <=1.5xupper limit of normal (ULN) (isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%).
  • Average QT duration corrected for heart rate by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) < 450 miliseconds (msec).
  • Body mass index (BMI) within the range 19 to 33 kilogram (kg)/meter square (m2) (inclusive).

  • History of sensitivity to any of the study medications, or components thereof or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or GSK Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double Blind, Single-dose, Three-period, Crossover Study to Investigate Pharmacokinetic, Safety and Tolerability of Fluticasone Furoate With Umeclidinium When Administered in Combination and as Monotherapies in Adult Healthy Volunteer Subjects

This will be a randomized, double-blind, single-dose, three-period balanced crossover study in adult healthy subjects. Each of the 18 subjects will be randomized to receive a treatment sequence consisting of each of the three treatments (FF 400 microgram (mcg), UMEC 500 mcg and FF 400 mcg/UMEC 500 mcg), in three consecutive periods, with a wash-out period of 7 to 10 days between the periods.

The study will include a Screening period (28 days prior to first dose), Treatment period (3 single dose periods separated by two 7 to 10 days washout periods) and Follow-up period (7 to 14 days post last dose).

The pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety assessments will be performed during the study at fixed timepoints.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing FF 400 mcg, UMEC 500 mcg and FF/UMEC 400/500 mcg in people with Asthma, run by GlaxoSmithKline 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 10 inclusion and 23 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 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 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?

Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) in plasma for FF and UMEC (time frame: Period 1, 2 and 3: Day 1 (pre-dose, 5 minutes [mins], 15 mins, 30 mins, 45 mins, 1 hour (h), 1.5 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h, and 16 h) and Day 2 (24 h)). The study lists 14 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 NCT01725685, 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 9 Jun 2017.
