About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Single-Dose, Partial Replicate, Three-period, Three-sequence, Open-Label, Bioequivalence Study Comparing Esomeprazole in Two Different Drug Products After Oral Administration to Healthy Adult Subjects Under Fasting Conditions

The current study is conducted to evaluate and compare the relative bioavailability for Esomeprazole in two different products containing 40 mg Esomeprazole after a single oral dose administration under fasting conditions.

Read the detailed description

A randomized, single-dose, two-treatment, partial replicate, three-phase, three-sequence, bioequivalence study of the two study products. Blood samples were collected at different time intervals and stored at -70⁰C freezer. Esomeprazole plasma concentrations were analyzed using a validated LC-MS-MS method then pharmacokinetics and statistical analysis were performed on the concentrations obtained using Phoenix WinNonlin® software.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax is observed as the maximum of Esomeprazole peak concentration

    Measured: Pre-dose (0) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 , 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 24 hours post dose

  2. Area under the plasma concentration curve from administration to last observed concentration at time t (AUC(0-t))

    The AUC (0-t) is the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero (predose) to time of last quantifiable concentration (tlast)

    Measured: Pre-dose (0) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 , 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 24 hours post dose

  3. Area under the plasma concentration curve extrapolated to infinite time (AUC(0-inf))

    AUC(0-inf) "the area under the curve," which is a way of measuring the total amount of the active drug in a subject's system over a period of time from administration ("0") to the time that the drug is no longer present in the subject's body ("infinity")

    Measured: Pre-dose (0) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 , 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 24 hours post dose

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Maximum time (Tmax)

    Time until Cmax is reached

    Measured: Pre-dose (0) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 , 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 24 hours post dose

  2. Elimination Rate Constant (Kel)

    Kel is a value used in pharmacokinetics to describe the rate at which a drug is removed from the human system

    Measured: Pre-dose (0) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 , 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 24 hours post dose

  3. Plasma concentration half-life (t1/2)

    t1/2 is the time taken for the plasma concentration of a drug to reduce to half its original value. It is used to estimate how long it takes for a drug to be removed from your body.

    Measured: Pre-dose (0) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 , 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 24 hours post dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Test product (T) 40 mg Hard Gelatin Capsules and Reference product (R) 40 mg Hard Gelatin Capsules in people with Bioequivalence, run by Future University in Egypt at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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 11 Feb 2022. 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 Egypt. 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 plasma concentration (Cmax) (time frame: Pre-dose (0) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 , 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 24 hours post dose). The study lists 3 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 11 Feb 2022.
