About this study

Official title: A Single-Center, Open-Label,Randomized, Crossover Study to Evaluate the Relative Bioavailability and Food Effect of a New Oral Suspension and Tablet Formulation of Carisbamate (YKP509) in Healthy Adult Subjects

This study is designed to examine the relative bioavailability of three carisbamate formulations (Oral Suspension Type 1, Oral Suspension Type 2, and a 300 mg Oral Tablet) and to assess the effect of food on the oral bioavailability of the Oral Suspension Type 2 and the 300 mg Oral Tablet.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, open-label, randomized, 5-period, 10-sequence study designed to assess each treatment in 30 healthy subjects enrolled in the study. The five treatments tested using a single oral administration will be: (1) Oral Suspension Type 1, 300 mg Oral Tablet, Oral Suspension Type 2 all under fasted conditions and (2) Oral Suspension Type 2, 300 mg Oral Tablet under fed conditions. Each dose is followed by at least a seven-day washout period. The sequence and period arrangement will be constructed based on the Williams design to ensure the study is balanced with respect to first-order carry-over effects.

What participants receive

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

  • CarisbamateDrug

    Also called YKP509

    Carisbamate is currently under investigation as an adjuvant antiepileptic therapy in Lennox-Gastaut patients. Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a rare and highly debilitating form of childhood epilepsy that typically is diagnosed between 2 and 8 years of age, with peak onset at 3 to 5 years of age, and frequently persists into adulthood. Treatment options are limited and complicated by the multiple seizure types associated with LGS. Given the breadth of physical and cognitive disabilities associated with LGS, the development of antiseizure medications with appropriate oral dosing forms is needed to ensure administration feasibility and compliance in the target population.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

    To evaluate the safety and tolerability of each carisbamate formulation administered under either fed (Oral Suspension Type 2 and the 300 mg Oral Tablet) or fasted (all formulations) conditions. Evaluation of any abnormal laboratory safety results, ECGs or other incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events will be monitored. Subjects will also be assessed on the risk for suicidality via the C-SSRS (Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale)

    Measured: 35 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Carisbamate in people with Healthy Subjects, run by SK Life Science, Inc. 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 11 inclusion and 17 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 7 Oct 2021. 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?

Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (time frame: 35 days). 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 7 Oct 2021.
