About this study

Official title: Phase 1, Open-label, Drug-drug Interaction Study to Evaluate the Interaction Potential of Clarithromycin XL on Diltiazem Hydrochloride Cream 2% in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the drug-drug interaction potential of clarithromycin XL on Diltiazem hydrochloride (DTZ) 2% cream.

Read the detailed description

This study was designed to investigate the potential effect of clarithromycin XL at steady state (administered orally, once daily on Days 4 through 9 as 2 x 500 mg tablets, 1000 mg per day, for a total of 6000 mg) on the PK of a single topical dose of diltiazem hydrochloride 2% cream applied to the perianal area (~2.5 cm [1 inch]; ~8.5 mg). This was a Phase 1 study with a single treatment arm. Efficacy was not assessed; therefore the study was of open-label design.

Being tested
Clarithromycin XL, 2% Diltiazem

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Clarithromycin XL and 2% Diltiazem in people with CLARITHROMYCIN/DILTIAZEM [VA Drug Interaction], run by Ventrus Biosciences, Inc 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 6 inclusion and 44 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 14 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Apr 2014). 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?

Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of 2% Diltiazem (time frame: 9 days). 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 14 Apr 2014.
