Phase II Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of EVT 302 in Smoking Cessation.

May 28, 2009 updated by: Evotec Neurosciences GmbH

Phase II Multicentre, Randomised, Double-Blind, Parallel Group, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of EVT 302 in Smoking Cessation, Effect on it Own and in Combination With Open Label Nicotine Replacement Therapy.

This study will investigate the efficacy of EVT 302, a potent and selective inhibitor of Monoamine Oxidase - B, in improving quit rates in chronic cigarette smokers who are motivated to quit smoking. EVT 302 will be compared to placebo both with and without open label nicotine replacement therapy.

Study Overview

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.

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.

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.
