About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo-controlled, Rising Multiple-dose Study to Investigate the Tolerability and Steady-state Pharmacokinetics of BIA 6-512 (Trans-resveratrol) in Healthy Volunteers

To investigate the tolerability and safety of four multiple-dose regimens of BIA 6-512 (25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, and 150 mg 6 times daily) in healthy volunteers and to characterise the steady-state pharmacokinetic profiles of BIA 6-512 (25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, and 150 mg 6 times daily) in healthy volunteers.

Read the detailed description

Single-centre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled study of four multiple-rising doses in four sequential groups of 10 healthy volunteers each. Eligible subjects were admitted to the UFH on the day (Day 0) prior to receiving the first dose of study medication. On the morning of the next day (Day 1), subjects started receiving BIA 6-512/Placebo at 4 h intervals (6 times/day) for 48 h (13 investigational product administrations, in total). Subjects remained confined in the UFH from admission (Day 0) until at least 24 h post last dose (Day 4); then, they were discharged and were requested to return for the follow-up visit. At given time-points, subjects were submitted to vital signs recording, brief neurological examination, and 12-lead ECG. Blood samples for plasma drug assays were taken at the following times: Dose 1: pre-dose and ¼, ½, ¾, 1, 1½, 2, and 3 hours post-dose; Doses 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11: pre-dose; Dose 13: pre-dose and ¼, ½, ¾, 1, 1½, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours post-dose.

What participants receive

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

  • BIA 6-512Drug

    Also called Trans-resveratrol

    The investigational products consisted of capsules containing BIA 6-512 25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg and 150 mg. Products were administered orally, with approximately 240 mL of water in case of Doses 1 and 13, and at least 150 mL of water in case of Doses 2 to 12. First dose (Dose 1) and last dose (Dose 13) were administered in fasting of at least 8 hours and subject remained fasted until to 2.5 h post-dose. Meals were not served within 1 hour prior and 1 hour after investigational product administration in Doses 2 to 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BIA 6-512 in people with Parkinson 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 10 inclusion and 18 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 28 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 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?

Cmax - the maximum plasma concentration - first dose (dose 1) (time frame: Dose 1: pre-dose and ¼, ½, ¾, 1, 1½, 2, and 3 hours post-dose). The study lists 12 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 28 Mar 2017.
