Who may be able to join

  • Signed Informed Consent
  • Target population: Healthy subjects as determined by medical history, surgical history, physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG), and clinical laboratory tests including coagulation parameters.
  • Subjects with body mass index of 18 to 30 kg/m2, inclusive
  • Women must not be breast feeding, have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test and must agree to follow instructions for method(s) of contraception for the duration of treatment with study treatments apixaban and clarithromycin plus 5 half-lives of study treatments apixaban and clarithromycin plus 30 days (duration of ovulatory cycle) for a total of 33 days post-treatment completion.

  • History of coagulopathy, prolonged or unexplained clinically significant bleeding, or frequent unexplained bruising or thrombus formation, including hypermenorrhea, intra-cranial hemorrhage, family history of bleeding disorders in first degree relatives, and/or any adverse reaction to anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents that resulted in excessive bleeding.
  • History of recurrent neurological or gastrointestinal disorders, including insomnia, chronic headaches, dizziness, gastroesophageal reflux disease, cholecystectomy, gastric ulcers and/or Gilbert's syndrome.
  • History of antibiotic induced secondary infections, including candidiasis.
  • Evidence of organ dysfunction or any clinically significant deviation from normal in physical examination, vital signs, ECG, or clinical laboratory tests beyond what is consistent with the target population.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum observed concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Days 1-11

  2. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinite time (AUC(INF))

    Measured: Days 1-11

  3. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-T))

    Measured: Days 1-11

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety endpoints include the incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), AEs leading to discontinuation, and death

    Measured: Screening- until 30 days after discontinuation of dosing or subject's participation in the study if the last

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Apixaban and Clarithromycin in people with Venous Thromboembolism, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 21 Nov 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 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.

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 concentration (Cmax) (time frame: Days 1-11). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02912234, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Nov 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
