  • Any significant illness during the 4 weeks preceding entry into this study.
  • Use of any medication including vitamins, herbal and/or mineral supplements during the 7 days preceding the initial dose or during the course of this study (with the exception of the continued use of HRT and contraceptives).
  • Refusal to abstain from food 8 hours preceding and 4 hours following study drug administration, to abstain from foods containing poppy seeds 48 hours preceding and entirely during each confinement, and to abstain from caffeine or xanthine containing food or beverages and grapefruit juice within 48 hours before IMP administration and for the duration of study confinement until after the last study PK sample has been taken in each study period.
  • Weekly alcohol intake exceeding the equivalent of 14 units/week for females and 21 units/week for males. (1 unit = ½ pint beer, 25 mL of 40% spirit or a 125 mL glass of wine).

About this study

To determine whether three new oral formulations of a strong pain killer release the drug into the body in a similar pattern as the already marketed reference capsule formulation with or without food

Read the detailed description

Comparisons will be made between three new oral formulations and an existing marketed reference capsule formulation to determine whether the release rates of the products are similar or equivalent in a fed or fasted state. Determination is by measurement of drug concentrations in the blood at serial collection time points pre-dose until 72 hours post-dose, following an administration of a single oral dose. Pharmacokinetics parameters of AUC and Cmax are the primary endpoints

What is being measured

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

  1. Bioequivalence as measured by PK parameters

    AUCt, AUCINF, LambdaZ, t1/2Z, Cmax and tmax

    Measured: Up to 72 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety and tolerability as measured by adverse events, vital signs, clinical lab results and ECGs.

    Collection of adverse events, vital signs, clinical lab results and ECGs.

    Measured: Up to 7-10 days after last dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MRXXX, MR1XXX and MR2XXX in people with Pain, run by Mundipharma Research Limited at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 9 inclusion and 18 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 31 Aug 2017. 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 Kingdom. 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?

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?

Bioequivalence as measured by PK parameters (time frame: Up to 72 hours). 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 31 Aug 2017.
