MedDRA Classification |
E.1.3 | Condition being studied is a rare disease | No |
E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To investigate the pharmacokinetics of lidocaine from 4% lidocaine cream when applied to the skin of children, as compared to EMLA cream. To evaluate the safety of 4% lidocaine cream (adverse events, local tolerability, maximal exposure), as compared to EMLA cream. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To estimate the onset of anesthetic effect after 60 min application of 4% lidocaine cream and EMLA cream during catheter inserted in a vein of the antecubital fossa area or on the hand back on one arm for induction when applicable. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Pharmacokinetics will be estimated using sparse sampling design (and analysed by population pharmacokinetics modelling): 3 samples will be collected from children < 7 years and 4 samples for children >= 7 years; 0,7 to 1mL each to be obtained through indwelling venous cannula or direct venipuncture. The assay lower limit of quantification (LOQ) is 1 ng/mL for a plasma volume of 500 µL. Bioanalytical measurement of lidocaine will be performed at a central laboratory. Sampling times have been selected by time window to optimise parameter estimation and minimise the stress to subjects. |
