Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study Evaluating the Pharmacokinetics of Venlafaxine Extended-Release (ER) and Desvenlafaxine Succinate Sustained-Release (DVS SR) 50 mg in Healthy Subjects (NCT NCT00727064)

NCT ID: NCT00727064

Last Updated: 2010-06-02

Results Overview

Cmax is a measure of drug metabolism and presented as least squares geometric mean with 90% Confidence Interval. Variations in drug metabolism among individuals can be due to differences in genetic expression (phenotype) of Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes. Enzyme CYP2D6 has 4 metabolizer phenotypes: poor (PM), intermediate (IM), extensive (EM), and ultrarapid (UM) metabolizers.

Participant Flow

Participants were recruited in the United States from June 2008 to August 2008.

Participants were screened for cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) genotype to identify 7 "extensive metabolizers" and 7 "poor metabolizers" (inclusion criteria). Eligible participants were then randomly assigned to a sequence group.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: single dose

Population: All participants from sequence groups A and B who received a single dose of venlafaxine ER.

Cmax is a measure of drug metabolism and presented as least squares geometric mean with 90% Confidence Interval. Variations in drug metabolism among individuals can be due to differences in genetic expression (phenotype) of Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes. Enzyme CYP2D6 has 4 metabolizer phenotypes: poor (PM), intermediate (IM), extensive (EM), and ultrarapid (UM) metabolizers.
