Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Part 1: Area Under the Concentration-time Curve (AUC) From Time Zero Time (Pre-dose) to the Time of Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC[0-t]) of Levocetirizine
Pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48 hours post-dose

Blood samples were collected to measure AUC(0-t) at indicated time-points. AUC(0-t) was calculated by the linear trapezoidal method (i.e., Linear Trapezoidal Linear Interpolation calculation method in Phoenix WinNonlin).

Part 2: AUC(0-t) of Levocetirizine
Pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48 hours post-dose

Blood samples were collected to measure AUC(0-t) at indicated time-points. AUC(0-t) was calculated by the linear trapezoidal method (i.e., Linear Trapezoidal Linear Interpolation calculation method in Phoenix WinNonlin).

Part 1: Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of Levocetirizine
Pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48 hours post-dose

Blood samples were collected at indicated time points for analysis of Cmax. The values for Cmax were obtained directly from the concentration-time data.

Part 2: Cmax of Levocetirizine
Pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48 hours post-dose

Blood samples were collected at indicated time points for analysis of Cmax. The values for Cmax were obtained directly from the concentration-time data.

Secondary Endpoints

Part 1: Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Zero Time (Pre-dose) Extrapolated to Infinite Time AUC(0-inf) of Levocetirizine
Pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose
Part 2: AUC(0-inf) of Levocetirizine
Pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose
Part 1: Time to First Occurrence of Cmax (Tmax) of Levocetirizine
Pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48 hours post-dose

Subjects of Group C: Part 2EXPERIMENTALSubjects in Group C will be randomized to receive levocetirizine IRT 5 mg with 150 mL water in fasted state in Period 1. After a washout period of at least 5 days, subjects will receive levocetirizine ODT 5 mg without water in fasted state in Period 2.
Subjects of Group D: Part 2EXPERIMENTALSubjects in Group D will be randomized to receive levocetirizine ODT 5 mg without water in fasted state in Period 1. After a washout period of at least 5 days, subjects will receive levocetirizine IRT 5 mg with 150 mL water in fasted state in Period 2.

Frequently asked questions about Levocetirizine IRT

What is Levocetirizine IRT used for?

Levocetirizine IRT is an investigational small molecule being developed for rhinitis. It is an immediate release tablet formulation of levocetirizine. The drug is currently in Phase 1 clinical development and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

Who makes Levocetirizine IRT?

Levocetirizine IRT is being developed by GSK plc, a pharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker GSK. The drug is currently in Phase 1 clinical development for the treatment of rhinitis.

What phase is Levocetirizine IRT in?

Levocetirizine IRT is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not yet received regulatory approval. The drug is being studied for the treatment of rhinitis.

What clinical trials is Levocetirizine IRT in?

Levocetirizine IRT has one completed clinical trial, NCT03555890, a Phase 1 bioequivalence study comparing the oral disintegrating tablet and immediate release tablet formulations. The study enrolled 72 healthy male volunteers in Japan and was completed.

Is Levocetirizine IRT the same as Levocetirizine ODT?
