Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Geometric Mean Ratio of the Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From 0 to Infinity (AUC[0-inf]) of Rosiglitazone
Pre-dose and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours, between 8 and 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose

On Days 1 and 8, blood samples were taken prior to the administration of rosiglitazone and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours, between 8 and 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose. Plasma concentrations of rosiglitazone were determined using a validated liquid chromatography mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC MS/MS) assay. Individual and mean plasma rosiglitazone concentration versus time data were tabulated and plotted by analyte. The pharmacokinetic parameters of each analyte were calculated using standard non-compartmental methods (WinNonlin version 5.2.1, Pharsight Corp., Mountain View, CA). The geometric mean ratio of AUC(0-inf) of rosiglitazone was defined as the AUC(0-inf) of rosiglitazone on Day 8/AUC(0-inf) of rosiglitazone on Day 1.

Geometric Mean Ratio of the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Rosiglitazone
Pre-dose and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours, between 8 and 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose

On Days 1 and 8, blood samples were taken prior to the administration of rosiglitazone and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours, between 8 and 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose. Plasma concentrations of rosiglitazone were determined using a validated liquid chromatography mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC MS/MS) assay. Individual and mean plasma rosiglitazone concentration versus time data were tabulated and plotted by analyte. The pharmacokinetic parameters of each analyte were calculated using standard non-compartmental methods (WinNonlin version 5.2.1, Pharsight Corp., Mountain View, CA). The geometric mean ratio of Cmax of rosiglitazone was defined as the Cmax of rosiglitazone on Day 8/ Cmax of rosiglitazone on Day 1.

Geometric Mean Ratio of the Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From 0 to Infinity (AUC[0-inf]) of Ethinyl Estradiol and Norethindrone
Pre-dose and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours, between 8 and 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose

On Days 1 and 8, blood samples were taken prior to the administration of the contraceptive norethindrone 1 mg/ethinyl estradiol 35 µg (Ortho-Novum 1/35®) and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours, between 8 and 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose. Plasma concentrations of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone were determined using a validated liquid chromatography mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC MS/MS) assay. Individual and mean plasma ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone concentration versus time data were tabulated and plotted by analyte. The pharmacokinetic parameters of each analyte were calculated using standard non-compartmental methods (WinNonlin version 5.2.1, Pharsight Corp., Mountain View, CA). The geometric mean ratios of AUC(0-inf) of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone were defined as the ratios of AUC(0-inf) of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone on Day 8 divided by AUC(0-inf) of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone on Day 1, respectively.

Geometric Mean Ratio of the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Ethinyl Estradiol and Norethindrone
Pre-dose and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours, between 8 and 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose

On Days 1 and 8, blood samples were taken prior to the administration of the contraceptive norethindrone 1 mg/ethinyl estradiol 35 µg (Ortho-Novum 1/35®) and 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours, between 8 and 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose. Plasma concentrations of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone were determined using a validated liquid chromatography mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC MS/MS) assay. Individual and mean plasma ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone concentration versus time data were tabulated and plotted by analyte. The pharmacokinetic parameters of each analyte were calculated using standard non-compartmental methods (WinNonlin version 5.2.1, Pharsight Corp., Mountain View, CA). The geometric mean ratios of Cmax of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone were defined as the ratios of Cmax of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone on Day 8 divided by Cmax of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone on Day 1, respectively.

Frequently asked questions about Norethindrone/ethinyl estradiol

What is Norethindrone/ethinyl estradiol used for in solid cancers?

Norethindrone/ethinyl estradiol is a small molecule being studied for use in solid cancers. It was evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that are refractory to standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy exists. The trial has been completed.

Who makes Norethindrone/ethinyl estradiol?

Norethindrone/ethinyl estradiol is being developed by Roche Holding AG, which trades under the ticker RHHBY. The company conducted a Phase 1 clinical trial of the drug in patients with solid cancers. The trial has been completed.
