What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Serum pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters: maximum observed concentration (Cmax) and Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to last time of quantifiable concentration within a subject (AUC[0-t]) for dutasteride
Serum PK samples will be collected pre-dose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 6, 8, 10, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 72 hours post dose for both treatment periods
Measured: From pre-dose up to 72 hrs
Secondary outcomes (2)
Time to Cmax (tmax) for dutasteride as data permit
Serum PK samples will be collected pre-dose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 6 8, 10, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 72 hours post dose for both treatment periods
Measured: From pre-dose up to 72 hrs
Safety and tolerability of all treatments as assessed by vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG) measurements, review of adverse events (AEs) and clinical laboratory safety data
Vital signs will include pulse rate and blood pressure measurements.12-lead ECGs will be obtained at the planned time point. An AE is any untoward medical occurrence temporally associated with the use of the medicinal product, whether or not considered associated with the product. Clinical laboratory tests will include hematology, clinical chemistry and urinalysis parameters.
Measured: From screening till Follow-up visit (10-14 days post-last dose)& 50-54 days post-last dose

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing GI198745 0.1 mg and GI198745 0.5 mg in people with Alopecia, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Australia.
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 8 inclusion and 16 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 19 Jun 2018. 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 Australia. 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?
Serum pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters: maximum observed concentration (Cmax) and Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to last time of quantifiable concentration within a subject (AUC[0-t]) for dutasteride (time frame: From pre-dose up to 72 hrs). 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 NCT01929330, 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 19 Jun 2018.
