Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Night-time sequenceEXPERIMENTALThe night-time treatment sequence consists of two Treatment periods (Period 1 and Period 2) with each period consisting of a single dose of Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP). The two Treatment periods are separated by a least 6-8-day wash-out phase between IMP administration in Period 1 and 2.
Day-time sequenceEXPERIMENTALThe day-time treatment sequence consists of two Treatment periods (Period 1 and Period 2) with each period consisting of a single dose of IMP. The two Treatment periods are separated by a least 6-8-day wash-out phase between IMP administration in Period 1 and 2.

Frequently asked questions about bi-layer calcium carbonate

What is bi-layer calcium carbonate used for?

Bi-layer calcium carbonate is an investigational small molecule being developed for heartburn and related stomach acid symptoms, including indigestion and nocturnal stomach acid related symptoms. It is a bi-layer antacid tablet designed to be compared against a standard, non-layered calcium carbonate tablet.

Who makes bi-layer calcium carbonate?

Bi-layer calcium carbonate is being developed by Bayer AG, which trades under the ticker BAYRY. The drug is currently in early clinical development for gastrointestinal conditions such as heartburn.

What phase is bi-layer calcium carbonate in?

Bi-layer calcium carbonate is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. One Phase 1 trial has been completed, and the drug remains under evaluation.

What clinical trials is bi-layer calcium carbonate in?

Bi-layer calcium carbonate has one completed Phase 1 trial, NCT06293326, a first-in-human study in healthy male participants. The trial compared the bi-layer tablet to a standard calcium carbonate tablet for heartburn and related symptoms. It enrolled 21 participants in the United Kingdom.

Is bi-layer calcium carbonate the same as calcium carbonate?

Bi-layer calcium carbonate is a distinct formulation of calcium carbonate, featuring a bi-layer tablet structure. It is being studied to see how well it works compared to a standard, non-layered calcium carbonate tablet for heartburn and stomach acid related symptoms.
