About this study

Official title: The Effect of Alcoholic-carrier Solutions Within-devices (HFA134a-MDI or Respimat®) on Breath Alcohol Measured by Ethylometer in Healthy Volunteers

The study objective is to determine the effect of the ethanolic solutions inhaled from the Metered dose inhaler (MDI) (15.5 mg, 31.2 mg and 62.4 mg of ethanol) and from Respimat® (18.4 of ethanol) on the breath alcohol measurements in healthy volunteers.

Secondary aim is to determine the linear dose-effect for the HFA 134a-MDI doses. An open, randomized, four-way-cross-over design is chosen. The randomization is balanced and stratified in accordance with predicted values of the volunteers of Total Lung Capacity (TLC)

What is being measured

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

  1. Area under curve (AUC) of blood alcohol level estimated from breath alcohol concentration after the four formulation inhalations

    Measured: up to 15 min after inhalation

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Breath alcohol concentration profile within each formulation

    Measured: up to 15 min after inhalation

  2. Maximum duration of alcohol detection exhaled air (Td) for each formulation

    Measured: up to 15 min after inhalation

  3. Highest breath alcohol concentration measured (Cmax)

    Measured: up to 15 min after inhalation

  4. Time to highest breath concentration (Tmax)

    Measured: up to 15 min after inhalation

  5. Number of patients with adverse events

    Measured: up to 5 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ethanolic Solution From HFA134a-MDI - low, Ethanolic Solution From HFA134a-MDI - medium and Ethanolic Solution From HFA134a-MDI - high 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 8 inclusion and 11 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 15 Oct 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?

Area under curve (AUC) of blood alcohol level estimated from breath alcohol concentration after the four formulation inhalations (time frame: up to 15 min after inhalation). 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 15 Oct 2014.
