About this study

Official title: A PHASE 3, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, CROSS-OVER, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, SINGLE DOSE, CLINICAL TRIAL TO ASSESS THE NEXT-DAY RESIDUAL EFFECTS OF GABAPENTIN, DIPHENHYDRAMINE AND TRIAZOLAM ON SIMULATED DRIVING PERFORMANCE IN NORMAL VOLUNTEERS

This study will examine the next-day residual effects of a nighttime dose of gabapentin 250 mg, diphenhydramine citrate 76 mg and triazolam 0.5 mg compared to placebo and each other on simulated driving performance in normal volunteer subjects. It will also examine other measures of next-day performance and next-day sleepiness.

What is being measured

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

  1. Standard Deviation of Lateral Position (SDLP)

    Driving performance assessment for the participants were measured by simulated driving test using Cognitive Research Corporation Driving Simulator (CRCDS-MiniSim). The assessment was performed after 45 minutes of awakening from approximately 6.5 hours of sleep on testing day (after 7.25 hours of study drug administration). SDLP was used to assess driver's ability to track their lane and was the standard deviation of lane positions through the entire drive.

    Measured: 7.25 hours post-dose

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Speed Deviation

    Driving performance assessment for the participants were measured by simulated driving test using Cognitive Research Corporation Driving Simulator (CRCDS-MiniSim). The assessment was performed after 45 minutes of awakening from approximately 6.5 hours of sleep on testing day (after 7.25 hours of study drug administration). Standard deviation of speed was reported in the outcome measure.

    Measured: 7.25 hours post dose

  2. Lane Exceedance

    Driving performance assessment for the participants were measured by simulated driving test using Cognitive Research Corporation Driving Simulator (CRCDS-MiniSim). The assessment was performed after 45 minutes of awakening from approximately 6.5 hours of sleep on testing day (after 7.25 hours of study drug administration). Mean lanes excursed/exceeded was reported in the outcome measure.

    Measured: 7.25 hours post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Gabapentin, Diphenhydramine citrate and Triazolam in people with Healthy, run by Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. at 4 sites 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 21 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 5 Feb 2021). 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?

Standard Deviation of Lateral Position (SDLP) (time frame: 7.25 hours post-dose). 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 21 Feb 2021.
