About this study

Official title: Modernization of in vivo-in Vitro Oral Bioperformance Prediction and Assessment: A Research Study to Evaluate the Performance of an Ibuprofen Oral Dosage Form in the Gastrointestinal Tract of Healthy Adult Volunteers

In vivo drug dissolution in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is largely unmeasured. The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the in vivo drug dissolution and systemic absorption of the BCS Class IIa drug ibuprofen under fed and fasted conditions by direct sampling of stomach and small intestinal luminal content. Expanding current knowledge of drug dissolution in vivo will help to establish physiologically relevant in vitro models predictive of drug dissolution.

Read the detailed description

This is an in vivo study designed to acquire human gastrointestinal (GI) physiology data from healthy subjects under fasting and fed conditions which are necessary for mechanistic absorption model development. Each subject will be asked to complete two GI tube insertion procedures. Subjects will complete this study twice under the same conditions of the GI tract, either fasting state or fed state, in order to provide intra-subject variability. A minimum of 7 days will separate each GI tube insertion procedure. The objectives of this study are, as follows: Objective #1: To acquire human GI physiology data including GI motility, pH of GI fluids, and GI fluid volume under fasting and fed conditions; Objective #2: To measure drug concentration and calculate drug dissolution in the GI tract in vivo under fasting and fed conditions; Objective #3: To monitor plasma drug concentration and evaluate pharmacokinetics of administered drug during GI tube insertion studies under fasting and fed conditions. These in vivo results will be used to validate in vitro dissolution methods and to support computational and mathematical modeling efforts, in order to develop an oral drug product optimization process that may be applied to future drugs to maximize oral drug safety and efficacy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Average Duodenal Fluid pH in Fasted Compared to Fed Participants Administered a Single Dose of Ibuprofen

    The pH of duodenal fluid was measured at multiple timepoints over a 7 hour period. The reported value represents the mean and standard deviation of duodenal fluid pH.

    Measured: from time 0 to 7 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Maximum Duodenal Fluid Concentration of Ibuprofen in Fasted Compared to Fed Participants Administered a Single Dose of Ibuprofen

    The concentration of duodenal fluid was measured at multiple timepoints over a 7 hour period. The reported value represents the mean and standard deviation maximum concentration measured in duodenal fluid.

    Measured: from time 0 to 7 hours

  2. Average Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC) in Fasted Compared to Fed Participants Administered a Single Dose of Ibuprofen

    The plasma concentration of ibuprofen was measured at multiple timepoints over a 24 hour period. The reported value represents the mean and standard deviation of AUC over this time frame.

    Measured: from time 0 to 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Single dose of ibuprofen (800 mg tablet) and Pulmocare, two 8.0 oz (236.6 mL) cans in people with Human Gastrointestinal Physiology Data, run by University of Michigan at 1 site 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 2 inclusion and 13 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 8 Dec 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 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Dec 2017). 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?

Average Duodenal Fluid pH in Fasted Compared to Fed Participants Administered a Single Dose of Ibuprofen (time frame: from time 0 to 7 hours). 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 NCT02806869, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
