About this study

Official title: An Estimate of the ED95 of Lidocaine 1.0% for Filling the Adductor Canal When Placing an Adductor Canal Block in Healthy Volunteers

The aim of this prospective dose finding study is to estimate the minimal effective volume (ED95) for lidocaine 1.0% for filling the adductor canal when placing an adductor canal block. We will apply the Continual Reassessment Method (CRM) for estimating the ED95 and use an MRI scan to evaluate the main objective and ensure spread to the distal part of the adductor canal.

What is being measured

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

  1. To estimate the ED 95 for the volume needed to fill the adductor canal distally.

    This will be evaluated as a binary outcome using MRI; where the adductor canal is considered to be filled if the lidocaine injectate can be identified inside the canal in the first slice distally to the insertion of the adductor longus muscle on femur.

    Measured: MRI performed 15 minutes post block

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. To investigate the effect of volume on proximal spread to the femoral triangle

    Evaluated as a binary outcome using MRI

    Measured: MRI performed 15 minutes post block

  2. Quadriceps muscle strength

    To investigate the effect of volume on quadriceps muscle strength, assessed as maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) and evaluated as a binary outcome (reduction by more or less than 25%).

    Measured: 1 hour post block

  3. Pin prick test

    To investigate the effect of volume on sensory block assessed by pin-prick in the saphenous innervation area and in the popliteal fossa.

    Measured: 1 hour post block

  4. Temperature discrimination test

    To investigate the effect of volume on sensory block assessed by cold sensation using alchohol swabs, in the saphenous innervation area and in the popliteal fossa.

    Measured: 1 hour post block

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Adductor canal block with lidocaine 1% and Lidocaine in people with Healthy, run by Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet at 1 site in Denmark.

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 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 4 Apr 2014. 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 Denmark. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

To estimate the ED 95 for the volume needed to fill the adductor canal distally. (time frame: MRI performed 15 minutes post block). 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 NCT02033356, 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 4 Apr 2014.
