About this study

Official title: Randomised, Open Label, 3-way Cross Over Phase I Study to Investigate the Impact of Concomitant Use of Multiple Doses of Clopidogrel (75 mg qd After a Loading Dose of 300 mg) With Multiple Doses of Dabigatran Etexilate (150 mg Bid) on the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Parameters, and Additionally the Impact of Single Oral Doses of 300 mg and 600 mg of Clopidogrel Administered Under Steady State Conditions of Dabigatran of 75 mg and 150 mg in Healthy Male Subjects

The primary objective of the study (Main Part 2) was to investigate whether and to which extent a combination of multiple oral doses (steady state conditions) of 75 mg of clopidogrel q.d. (after a loading dose of 300 mg) and multiple doses of 150 mg of dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. at steady state affects pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters of dabigatran etexilate and clopidogrel.

The objective of the preceding Pilot Part 1 of the study was to explore the effect of a single dose of 300 mg clopidogrel administered after multiple doses of 75 mg and 150 mg dabigatran had reached steady state, regarding safety as well as pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters.

The Main Part 3 of the study moreover was to compare intra-individually the effects of a single dose of 600 mg clopidogrel with the same dose, 600 mg clopidogrel, given additionally to multiple doses of 150 mg dabigatran in steady state condition with respect to safety and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Clopidogrel, Dabigatran high dose and Dabigatran low dose in people with Healthy, run by Boehringer Ingelheim.

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 26 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 24 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

AUCτ,ss (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over one dosing interval at steady state) (time frame: up to 19 days). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Jun 2014.
