What is being measured

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

  1. AUC (Area under the plasma concentration time curve) of ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone (EE/NET)

    Measured: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, and 34 hours post dose on day 0 and day 30

  2. Cmax (maximum observed concentration) of EE/NET

    Measured: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, and 34 hours post dose on day 0 and day 30

  3. Tmax (Time of maximum concentration) of EE/NET

    Measured: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, and 34 hours post dose on day 0 and day 30

  4. AUCss (Area under the concentration time curve at steady state) of nevirapine

    Measured: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, and 34 hours post dose on day 30

  5. Cmax (maximum observed concentration) of nevirapine

    Measured: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, and 34 hours post dose on day 30

  6. Cmin (minimum observed concentration) of nevirapine

    Measured: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, and 34 hours post dose on day 30

  7. Cl/F (Oral clearance) of nevirapine

    Measured: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, and 34 hours post dose on day 30

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of patients with adverse events

    Measured: up to 59 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Nevirapine and EE/NET in people with HIV Infections, 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 14 inclusion and 10 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 Jul 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?

AUC (Area under the plasma concentration time curve) of ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone (EE/NET) (time frame: 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, and 34 hours post dose on day 0 and day 30). The study lists 7 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 14 Jul 2014.
