Effect of Azimilide Dihydrochloride on Renal Function

January 31, 2017 updated by: Forest Laboratories

A Double-blind, Randomized, Parallel-group, Placebo-controlled, Multiple-dose Study to Assess the Effect of 125 mg/Day Orally Administered Azimilide Dihydrochloride on Renal Function and Hemodynamics in Healthy Volunteers

This study will assess the effect of multiple dosing of 125 mg azimilide on glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and total creatinine clearance (GFR + active secretion) in healthy subjects. Also, it will assess the effect of multiple dosing of 125 mg azimilide on renal hemodynamics (RPF) in healthy subjects.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, multiple-dose, single-site study in healthy male and female volunteers. Oral azimilide 125 mg or placebo will be administered every 12 hours for 3 days, followed by 125 mg every 24 hours for 3 days. The study will include a total of 21 healthy subjects (14 active and 7 placebo), all of whom will be confined at the study center for 9 nights.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 45 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
To assess the effect of multiple dosing of 125 mg azimilide on glomerular filtration rate and total creatinine clearance in healthy subjects
Time Frame: 6 days
6 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure.
