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

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

  • Body mass Index (BMI = weight/height²) greater than or equal to 18.5 kg/m² and less than or equal to 29.9 kg/m².
  • Availability of subject for the entire study period and willingness to adhere to protocol requirements, as evidenced by a signed Informed Consent Form.
  • Normal findings in the physical examination, 12-lead ECG and vital signs (blood pressure between 100-140/60-90 mmHg, heart rate between 50-99 beats/min, temperature between 35.8ºC and 37.5ºC).
  • Negative for drugs of abuse, nicotine, alcohol, hepatitis B-surface antigen, hepatitis C and HIV, and for female subjects, pregnancy (serum ß-CG).
  • No clinical laboratory values outside of the acceptable range as defined by BCR, unless the Principal Investigator decides they are not clinically significant.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known history of hypersensitivity to meloxicam (for example Mobic®), or related drugs such as any other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) such as acetylsalicyclic acid (e.g. Excedrin®, Aspirin®), ibuprofen (e.g. Motrin®), celecoxib (e.g. Celebrex®), Feldene®, Indocin®, Naprosyn®, Vioxx®, Toradol®, Clinoril®, Tolectin®, or Lodine®.

  • Any clinically significant illness during the last four weeks prior to entry into this study.
  • Presence of any significant physical or organ abnormality.
  • Any subject with history of drug abuse.
  • Any psychiatric or psychological disease (including depression) unless deemed not clinically significant by the Principal Investigator, or medical designate.
  • Use of any prescription medication within 14 days preceding entry into this study.
  • Use of over-the-counter (OTC) medication within seven days preceding entry into this study (except for spermicidal/barrier contraceptive products).

  • Female subjects: presence of pregnancy or lactation.
  • Female subjects at risk of becoming pregnant must consent to using two medically acceptable methods of contraception throughout the entire study, including the washout period and for one month after the completion of the study. Medically acceptable barrier methods of contraception that may be used by the subject and/or partner include diaphragm with spermicide, IUD, condom with foam, and vaginal spermicidal suppository. Complete abstinence can be used alone as a method of contraception.
  • Any subject who has had blood drawn within 56 days preceding this study, taken during the conduct of any clinical study at a facility other than BCR or within the lockout period specified by a previous study conducted at BCR.
  • Participation in a clinical trial with an investigational drug within 30 days preceding this study.
  • Any subject who has donated blood within 56 days preceding this study.
  • Any subject who has participated as a plasma donor in a plasmapheresis program within seven days preceding this study.
  • Any subject with a recent (less than one year) history of alcohol abuse.
  • Significant or recent history of asthma (after 12 years of age), or familial history of asthma or aspirin-sensitive asthma, sever bronchospasm, nasal polyps or chronic sinusitis.
