Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Area under curve of plasma concentration of drug from time 0 (zero) from time t (last measurable concentration)
Collection points from time 0 to 192 hours evaluated in two periods

The area under the plot of plasma concentration of drug against time (non-compartimental method), after drug administration, defined as the area under the curve (AUC). The AUC 0-t is calculated from time 0 (prior to administration of medication) to time t (the time of the last quantifiable concentration), by linear trapezoidal rule. The AUC is of particular use in estimating the bioavailability of drugs, by measuring the extent of absorption.

Maximum observed concentration of drug through time (Cmax)
Collection points from time 0 to 192 hours evaluated in two periods

Cmax is defined as the maximum or "peak" concentration of a drug observed after its administration. Cmax is one of the parameters of particular use in estimating the bioavailability of drugs, by measuring the total amount of drug absorbed. Measurement obtained directly of the plasma concentration curve of the drug (non-compartimental method). Occurring at Tmax.

Area under curve of plasma concentration of drug from the time 0 (zero) extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-inf)
Collection points from time 0 to 192 hours evaluated in two periods

Measurement obtained directly from the plasma concentration curve of drug against time (non-compartimental method). AUC0-inf is calculated from time 0 (prior to administration of medication) extrapolated to infinity, by formula AUC0-inf=AUClast +Clast/Kel, where Clast is the Last measurable concentration and Kel is the first order rate constant associated with the terminal portion of the curve.

Time of maximum observed concentration (Tmax)
Collection points from time 0 to 192 hours evaluated in two periods

Time when Cmax is obtained

Terminal half-life - T1/2
Collection points from time 0 to 192 hours evaluated in two periods

Calculated by formula: T1/2\_Kel= Ln(2)/Kel.

First order rate constant associated with the terminal portion of the curve (Kel)
Collection points from time 0 to 192 hours evaluated in two periods

This parameter is estimated by the angular coefficient of the regression line, calculated by the minimum squares method, of the natural logarithm of the concentration versus time for the last four concentrations values (or at least three) above the quantification limit

Frequently asked questions about Topiramate coated

What is topiramate coated used for?

Topiramate coated is an oral tablet formulation studied for epilepsy, specifically tonic-clonic seizures. It is a coated tablet version of topiramate developed by GSK plc. The clinical program has focused on bioequivalence testing in healthy adult male volunteers rather than on new efficacy trials.

What does topiramate coated target?

Topiramate coated acts as an antagonist at AMPA and kainate receptor subunits, including GRIA1, GRIA2, GRIA3, GRIA4, GRIK1, and GRIK5. By blocking these glutamate-gated ion channels, it reduces excitatory neurotransmission, which is the basis for its use in seizure disorders such as tonic-clonic epilepsy.

Who makes topiramate coated?

Topiramate coated is developed by GSK plc, which trades under the ticker GSK. The company is the sponsor behind the clinical program for this coated tablet formulation of topiramate.

What phase is topiramate coated in?

Topiramate coated is in Phase 1 development. It is an investigational formulation and is not described as approved. The single registered trial was a Phase 1 bioequivalence study, and no active trials are currently listed for this asset.

What clinical trials is topiramate coated in?

Topiramate coated has been studied in one completed trial, NCT01439438, titled Topiramate Bioequivalence Study Brazil - Fast. That Phase 1 study enrolled 26 healthy male volunteers aged 18 years and older in Brazil, used an active-controlled randomized design, and has completed.

Is topiramate coated the same as topiramate coated tablet?

Yes, topiramate coated and topiramate coated tablet refer to the same product. Topiramate coated tablet is simply the alternative name used for this GSK plc formulation, so searches under either name point to the same Phase 1 asset being studied in tonic-clonic epilepsy.
