THE RESEARCH PHYSICIAN ABOUT THIS RESEARCH

Additional information

  • The study compound is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.
  • In this clinical trial, we investigate whether an approved compound that is already available on the market (itraconazole) has an influence on the way the  study compound is processed and eliminated by the body. Furthermore, we investigate how well the administration of both compounds is tolerated when they are used by healthy participants.
  • The study consists of 2 periods. In the first period you will receive a single dose of the study compound. This will be administered in the form of a capsule to swallow. In the second period you will receive a single dose of the study compound, and you will also receive Itraconazole. This will also be administered in the form of a capsule to swallow. You will receive Itraconazole once daily for 12 days. Itraconazole is used to treat fungal infections.
  • You can only participate in one group of this trial.

Veelgestelde vragen

Je mag maximaal 4 keer per jaar deelnemen aan een onderzoek. Tussen twee onderzoeken moeten minstens 30 dagen zitten. Voor sommige onderzoeken geldt een langere wachttijd.

Je kunt tijdens het onderzoek last krijgen van milde klachten als hoofdpijn of misselijkheid. Dat kan door het geneesmiddel komen. Maar het kan ook komen doordat je voor het onderzoek bijvoorbeeld nuchter moet blijven. Die bijwerkingen zijn vervelend, maar gelukkig niet gevaarlijk.

Voordat een geneesmiddel op mensen mag worden getest, is het al uitgebreid onderzocht in een laboratorium. Daardoor kunnen we goed voorspellen welke bijwerkingen je eventueel kunt krijgen en kunnen we je daarop voorbereiden. Het komt dus bijna nooit voor dat deelnemers last krijgen van onverwachte bijwerkingen. Een allergische reactie op het middel komt gemiddeld bijvoorbeeld één keer per jaar voor.

Je deelname aan geneesmiddelenonderzoek is altijd vrijwillig. Je mag dus op elk moment besluiten om te stoppen. Soms ben je genoodzaakt om te stoppen. Bijvoorbeeld vanwege familieomstandigheden, of als de arts besluit dat dat voor jouw gezondheid beter is. Als je stopt, bekijken we op welk deel van de vergoeding je recht hebt. Wel zo eerlijk!

Als je meedoet aan een onderzoek waarvoor je langer dan 10 dagen in het onderzoekscentrum verblijft, is het soms mogelijk om (in overleg) bezoek te ontvangen.
