About this study

Official title: Open-label, Two-treatment, Single Period, Parallel, Single-dose, Randomized, Fasting, Lab-blinded Bioequivalence Study of Fulvestrant 50 mg/mL Versus Faslodex®, 50 mg/mL, in Healthy, Post-menopausal Female Subjects

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate bioequivalence between the test drug product, fulvestrant Injection, 50 mg/mL, and the Reference Listed Drug, Faslodex® Injection, 50 mg/mL.

Read the detailed description

This study is being conducted to establish bioequivalence between sponsor's test product [fulvestrant Injection, 50 mg/mL (Manufactured for Fresenius Kabi, USA)] and reference listed drug [Faslodex® Injection, 50 mg/mL, (Distributed by AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals, USA] after intramuscular administration of a 250 mg dose (5 mL injection) into the upper outer quadrant of the right buttock to normal, healthy, nonsmoking post-menopausal female subjects.

The order of receiving the test product (T) or reference listed drug (R) for each subject during the study will be determined according to a randomization schedule.

Subjects will be allocated with a ratio of 1:1 to both treatment groups (i.e. T and R).

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum observed plasma concentration

    Measured: 0-238 days

  2. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC0-238d) of fulvestrant

    Measured: 0-238 days

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC0-28d) of fulvestrant

    Measured: 0-28 day

  2. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero to the last measurable concentration (AUC0-t)

    Measured: 0-238 days

  3. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC0-∞)

    Measured: 0-238 days

  4. Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax)

    Measured: 0-238 days

  5. Elimination Half-life Period (t1/2)

    Measured: 0-238 days

  6. Terminal Slope (λz)

    Measured: 0-238 days

  7. Residual area in percentage (AUC_%Extrap_obs)

    Measured: 0-238 days

  8. Injection site pain assessment

    Measured: 0-8 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Fulvestrant in people with Healthy, run by Fresenius Kabi at 3 sites in Canada.

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 7 inclusion and 9 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 9 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Canada. 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 (time frame: 0-238 days). 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?
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 9 Mar 2017.
