Study of Intragastric pH Profile After 5 Days Pantoprazole 40 Mg Iv Followed by Oral Esomeprazole 40 Mg Po or Oral Pantoprazole 40 Mg Po

Information source: AstraZeneca

Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.

Condition(s) targeted: Healthy

Intervention: Esomeprazole (Drug); pantoprazole (Drug)

Phase: Phase 4

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: AstraZeneca

Summary

This Phase IV study is intended to compare intragastric acid suppression of oral esomeprazole (NEXIUM ® Delayed-Release Capsules) with that of oral pantoprazole (PROTONIX ® Delayed Release Tablets ), in subjects who continue to require acid-suppressive therapy following a course of intravenous (iv) pantoprazole (PROTONIX ® I. V. for Injection).

Clinical Details

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Comparative, Two-Treatment, Crossover Study of the 24-Hour Intragastric pH Profile After 5 Days of Once Daily Oral Administration of Either Esomeprazole 40 Mg or Pantoprazole 40 Mg Following Once Daily Infusion of Intravenous Pantoprazole 40 Mg for 5 Days in Healthy Volunteer Subjects

Study design: Educational/Counseling/Training, Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Crossover Assignment, Efficacy Study

Primary outcome: The percent time of intragastric pH>4.0 on oral dosing Day 5 during the 24-hour intragastric pH monitoring period.

Secondary outcome: The percent time of intragastric pH>4.0 on oral dosing Day 1 and the mean hourly cumulative IGA during the 24-hour intragastric pH monitoring periods (on oral dosing Days 1 and 5.
