What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study aims to improve how acyclovir is dosed in people with obesity. Researchers will measure lean body mass and kidney function in 20 healthy volunteers with different BMIs to see if these factors predict how the body clears the drug. The goal is to create better dosing guidelines for obese patients.

Inclusion Criteria: * healthy volunteers with a BMI between 18 and 39,9 kg/m2, divided into 4 groups: 5 non-obese volunteers (BMI between 18 and 24,9 kg/m2), 5 overweight volunteers (BMI between 25 and 29,9 kg/m2), 5 volunteers with grade 1 obesity (BMI between 30 and 34,9 kg/m2) and 5 volunteers with grade 2 obesity (BMI between 35 and 39,9 kg/m2), * volunteers with a aGFR \> 50 ml/min, * with a good venous pathway for kinetics, * women on contraception or postmenopausal women, * person who has given written consent and affiliated with the public health insurance. Exclusion Criteria: * volunteers with nephrotoxic co-prescriptions and/or co-prescriptions that would modify the pharmacokinetics of acyclovir like diuretics, NSAIDs or statins, * having presented serious allergies to a drug (e.g. angioedema...), with large parenchyma insufficiencies (e.g., hepatic insufficiency, heart failure...), * with diabetes or taking anti-diabetics due to the possible deterioration of renal function in diabetic patients, * with arterial hypertension or taking antihypertensive drugs due to the possible modification of renal clearance by modification of blood flow, * drug interactions with acyclovir (H2 receptor antagonists (e.g., Cimetidine), Probenecid, Mycophenolate Mofetil, Lithium, Anti-calcineurins (Ciclosporin, Tacrolimus)), * volunteers taking anticoagulants, * hypersensitivity to acyclovir, * pregnant woman, * participation in another clinical study in the last two months * volunteers with ongoing viral HSV/VZV infection treated with acyclovir, * adults under guardianship or other legal protection, deprived of their liberty by judicial or administrative decision
