About this study

Official title: Randomized, Double-blind, Multi-center, Parallel-group, Dose-ranging Comparison of the Safety and Efficacy of the ZP-Zolmitriptan Intracutaneous Microneedle Systems to Placebo for the Acute Treatment of Migraine

This is a randomized, double-blind, multi-center, parallel-group study designed to compare the safety and efficacy of a range of doses of ZP-Zolmitriptan intracutaneous microneedle systems to placebo.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, double-blind, multi-center, parallel group study designed to compare the safety and efficacy of a range of doses of ZP-Zolmitriptan intracutaneous microneedle systems to placebo. Subjects who have consented and meet the entry criteria will be randomized to one of four blinded treatment groups. There will be a screening period of up to 1 week, followed by a run-in period to record migraine activity. The run-in period is to determine eligibility for randomization, and is planned to be 4 weeks in duration but may be extended up to an additional 4 weeks to accommodate scheduling. Qualified subjects will randomize to the double-blind treatment period at Day 0 and will have up to 8 weeks to confirm and treat a qualifying migraine. Using the eDiary to confirm they are experiencing a qualified migraine, subjects will self-administer the patch or patches and continue to respond to questions in the eDiary for 48 hours post treatment administration.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ZP-ZolmitriptanDrug

    ZP-Zolmitriptan single administration delivered via intracutaneous microneedle patch delivery system

  • PlaceboDrug

    Placebo patch(es) to match ZP-Zolmitriptan single administration delivered via intracutaneous microneedle patch delivery system (one or two patches)

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of Subjects With Pain Freedom

    Pain Freedom at 2 hours post study drug administration is one of the co-primary endpoints. Subjects were queried via their eDiary about their level of migraine pain (none, mild, moderate, or severe) at various intervals post-dose. Subjects who answered none at 2 hours post study drug were considered pain free at 2 hours.

    Measured: 2 hours

  2. Proportion of Subjects With Freedom From Most Bothersome Pre-specified Other Symptom (Nausea, Photophobia, or Phonophobia Pre-specified by Subject)

    The proportion of subjects with freedom from the subject's pre-specified most bothersome symptom at 2 hours is one of two parts of the co-primary efficacy endpoint. This endpoint will be evaluated separately but both endpoints have to be met statistically for the study to be considered a success.

    Measured: 2 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing ZP-Zolmitriptan in people with Acute Migraine, run by Zosano Pharma Corporation at 36 sites 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 12 inclusion and 32 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 13 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 36 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Feb 2018). 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?

Proportion of Subjects With Pain Freedom (time frame: 2 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02745392, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 13 Mar 2018.
