About this study
Official title: A Single-Dose, Open-label, Randomized, Crossover, Drug-Drug Interaction Study of Nifedipine Extended-release Tablets With or Without Multiple-dose Administration of Proton-Pump Inhibitor Omeprazole/Sodium Bicarbonate in Healthy Volunteers
The purpose of this study is to measure the amount of study drug present in blood after being administered a generic version of nifedipine extended-release tablets, 60 mg (Valeant Pharmaceuticals, LLC) and brand-name version PROCARDIA XL extended-release tablets, 60 mg (Pfizer Inc.) individually and in presence of stomach acid reducing drug (antacid), omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate capsules, 40 mg/1100 mg (generic) on separate occasions, on an empty stomach. This study also involves administrations of an FDA-cleared capsule, SmartPill™, which will measure stomach acid, prior to each study arm.
Read the detailed description
A question that arises with generic oral extended-release (ER) products is related to pH-dependent dissolution kinetics in comparison with that of their reference listed drug (RLD). For example, poorly water-soluble drugs with the presence of pKa in the gastrointestinal (GI) pH range have pH-dependent solubility and dissolution behaviors during in vivo drug release. In this case, the generic product which utilizes a different release mechanism could amplify or reduce such a pH dependence (e.g. osmotic pump RLD vs. matrix generic counterparts). This may render these generic ER products more or less dependent on gastric pH modification, commonly occurred in patients taking concomitant over-the-counter (OTC) proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for the treatment of gastric acid-related disorders. It has been noted that PPIs (e.g. lansoprazole, omeprazole, esomeprazole) and PPIs with antacids (e.g. omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate) can drastically elevate the gastric pH, thus potentially changing the equilibrium solubility of co-administered drug substances or altering their release profiles.
For instance, nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker, indicated for the long-term treatment of hypertension and angina. The drug substance is a weak acid (pKa 3.9) and practically insoluble in water. Currently, there is one RLD of oral ER nifedipine tablets based on an osmotic pump design (Procardia XL) and a generic counterpart of ER nifedipine tablets employing a matrix formulation design which is different from this RLD product. Due to complicated release mechanisms, quality attribute profiles, and in vivo pharmacokinetics (PK) behaviors of ER products, FDA is assessing the need of a drug-drug interaction study between PPIs/antacids (e.g. omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate) and generic nifedipine ER products based on a formulation design which is different from that of its RLD.
To this end, the objective of this proposal is to investigate the dependence of in vivo PK on the formulation design of generic oral extended-release products in comparison with that of their RLD when co-administered with PPIs/antacids. The outcome of this study will help the Agency advance further understanding about product PK performance in potential patient population with abnormal gastric pH and improve review standards for equivalence of this category of oral ER products if necessary. The study results will help the Agency gain a better understanding of drug-drug interaction between oral modified-release products and PPIs/antacids and establish regulatory standards of bioequivalence approaches for this category of generic oral ER products.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Nifedipine 60 MG Extended Release Oral Tablet, omeprazole/sodium bicarbonate and SmartPill (TM) in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 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 12 inclusion and 39 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 16 Aug 2019. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Jul 2019). 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?
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) (time frame: 48 hours). The study lists 4 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 16 Aug 2019.
