About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Interaction Between Four Different Single Doses of BIA 3-202 and a Single Dose of Levodopa/Carbidopa (100/25 mg): a Double-blind, Randomised, Crossover, Placebo Controlled Study in Healthy Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to investigate the tolerability, pharmacokinetic profile of BIA 3-202 and its metabolites, and the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interaction between 4 different single doses of BIA 3-202 (50 mg, 100 mg, 200 mg and 400 mg) and a single dose of standard levodopa 100 mg/carbidopa 25 mg (Sinemet® 25/100) in adult male and female healthy volunteers.

Read the detailed description

This was a single centre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, single-graded-dose, crossover study with five single-dose treatment periods. The washout period between doses was 15±2 days. For each of the five treatment periods, volunteers were to be admitted at the UFH on the day before the treatment day. On each treatment period, the pre-dose assessment were to be completed, BIA 3-202/Placebo was to be administered concomitantly with the dose of Sinemet® 25/100 and post-dose assessments were to be completed. Subjects were discharged 30 h post-dose. Subjects should attend five treatment periods and were to receive a different dose of BIA 3-202 or placebo during each of these treatment periods.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: pre-dose, ½, 1, 1½, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18 and 24 h post-dose

  2. Area under the plasma concentration time curve extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-∞)

    Measured: pre-dose, ½, 1, 1½, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18 and 24 h post-dose

  3. Apparent terminal elimination half-life (t1/2)

    Measured: pre-dose, ½, 1, 1½, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18 and 24 h post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIA 3-202 and Sinemet 25/100 in people with Parkinson's Disease, run by Bial - Portela C S.A. at 1 site in Portugal.

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 22 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 5 May 2016. 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 Portugal. 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?

Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) (time frame: pre-dose, ½, 1, 1½, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18 and 24 h post-dose). The study lists 3 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 5 May 2016.
