Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Men only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • All subjects (young and elderly):
  • A signed and dated informed consent form before any study-specific screening procedure is performed.
  • Healthy as determined by the investigator on the basis of medical history, physical examination, clinical laboratory test results, vital signs and digital 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG).

  • Young subjects only:
  • Males aged between 18 and 45 years, inclusive.

  • Males older than 65 years, inclusive. Specific inclusion criteria procedure: genotyping Since acetylation is an important BIA 5-453 metabolic pathway, NAT1 and NAT2 genotyping was required for inclusion for distinguishing between poor and faster acetylators (both could however be enrolled in the study).

Who cannot join

  • All subjects (young and elderly):
  • General
  • Subjects who had participated in a clinical trial with an investigational drug within the 90 days prior to screening.
  • Subjects who were likely to be noncompliant with the protocol, or who were felt to be unsuitable by the Investigator for any other reason.
  • Positive serologic findings for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibodies, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), and/or hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibodies.
  • Positive findings of urine drug screen (amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, cocaine, methadone, opiates, MDMA [3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine; ecstasy]).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIA 5-453 in people with Hypertension and Chronic Heart Failure, run by Bial - Portela C S.A. at 1 site in France.

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 8 inclusion and 24 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 27 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 1 site in France. 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) - DAY 1 (time frame: Day 1 pre-dose and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 h post-dose). The study lists 10 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 27 Mar 2017.
