About this study

Official title: Double-blind, Phase III Study to Evaluate Gastroprotection Obtained by the Use of Rebamipide 300 mg (2x Daily) and Rabeprazole 20 mg/Day (1x Daily) Associated or Not to Prevent Naproxen (1100 mg/Day)-Induced Gastric Lesions for 7 Days.

This clinical trial evaluated the gastroprotection obtained by the use of rebamipide 300 mg (2x daily) and rabeprazole 20 mg/day (1x daily) associated or not in the prevention of gastric lesions induced by naproxen 1100 mg/day) for 7 days to healthy volunteers of both sexes. This trial also assessed drugs safety and tolerability, the prostaglandin levels (PGE2) in biopsy specimens before and after treatment of each group and the histopathological changes induced by the treatment of each group.

Read the detailed description

This phase III, single center, double-blind, randomised, multiple-dose trial was performed in a parallel-group design. The subjects were randomly assigned to one of the 4 possible treatments: treatment A - 550 mg naproxen 2x daily + 300 mg rebamipide 2x daily + 20 mg rabeprazole 1x daily over 7 days; treatment B - 550 mg naproxen 2x daily + placebo of rebamipide 2x daily + 20 mg rabeprazole 1x daily over 7 days; treatment C - 550 mg naproxen 2x daily + 300 mg rebamipide 2x daily + placebo of rabeprazole 1x daily over 7 days; and treatment D - 550 mg naproxen 2x daily + placebo of rebamipide 2x daily + placebo of rabeprazole 1x daily over 7 days.

Upper digestive endoscopy was performed before the beginning of the therapies and 12 hours after the last administration (8th day of the study), with collection of the biological samples (biopsies) in the antrum region and 5 in the gastric body at each examination. The samples were preserved in formalin solution and sent for histopathological examination.

The safety and tolerability was assessed by signs and symptoms, adverse events, laboratory tests, vital signs and electrocardiogram (ECG).

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of the number of gastric events (erosion of the gastric mucosa, gastritis, petechiae in the gastric mucosa and ulcer)

    Histopathological examination of biological samples (biopsies) in the antrum region and in the gastric body collected during the upper digestive endoscopy performed before the beginning of the therapies and 12 hours after the last administration (8th day of the study) to each subject.

    Measured: 0-7 days after drugs administration

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Measurement of prostaglandin levels (PGE2).

    Measurement of prostaglandin levels (PGE2) in biopsy specimens collected before and after treatment of each subject.

    Measured: 0-7 days after drugs administration

  2. Number of adverse events per participant

    Number of adverse events in each treatment group, including clinically relevant alterations of vital signs and laboratory tests results.

    Measured: 0-7 days after drugs administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 550 mg naproxen + 300 mg rebamipide + 20 mg rabeprazole. in people with Gastric Lesion, run by Galeno Desenvolvimento de Pesquisas Clínicas at 1 site in Brazil.

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 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 5 Sep 2018. 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 Brazil. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Evaluation of the number of gastric events (erosion of the gastric mucosa, gastritis, petechiae in the gastric mucosa and ulcer) (time frame: 0-7 days after drugs administration). 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 5 Sep 2018.
