ABSTRACT: Background
High dose oral thiamine may have a role in treating diabetes, heart failure, and hypermetabolic states. The purpose of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetic profile of oral thiamine hydrochloride at 100 mg, 500 mg and 1500 mg doses in healthy subjects.Methods
This was a randomized, double-blind, single-dose, 4-way crossover study. Pharmacokinetic measures were calculated.Results
The AUC₀₋₁₀ hr and C(max) values increased nonlinearly between 100 mg and 1500 mg. The slope of the AUC₀₋₁₀ hr vs dose, as well as the C(max) vs dose, plots are steepest at the lowest thiamine doses.Conclusion
Our study demonstrates that high blood levels of thiamine can be achieved rapidly with oral thiamine hydrochloride. Thiamine is absorbed by both an active and nonsaturable passive process.Trial registration

Project description:BackgroundUV-4 (N-(9'-methoxynonyl)-1-deoxynojirimycin, also called MON-DNJ) is an iminosugar small-molecule oral drug candidate with in vitro antiviral activity against diverse viruses including dengue, influenza, and filoviruses and demonstrated in vivo efficacy against both dengue and influenza viruses. The antiviral mechanism of action of UV-4 is through inhibition of the host endoplasmic reticulum-resident α-glucosidase 1 and α-glucosidase 2 enzymes. This inhibition prevents proper glycan processing and folding of virus glycoproteins, thereby impacting virus assembly, secretion, and the fitness of nascent virions.Methodology/principal findingsHere we report a first-in-human, single ascending dose Phase 1a study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of UV-4 hydrochloride (UV-4B) in healthy subjects (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT02061358). Sixty-four subjects received single oral doses of UV-4 as the hydrochloride salt equivalent to 3, 10, 30, 90, 180, 360, 720, or 1000 mg of UV-4 (6 subjects per cohort), or placebo (2 subjects per cohort). Single doses of UV-4 hydrochloride were well tolerated with no serious adverse events or dose-dependent increases in adverse events observed. Clinical laboratory results, vital signs, and physical examination data did not reveal any safety signals. Dose-limiting toxicity was not observed; the maximum tolerated dose of UV-4 hydrochloride in humans has not yet been determined (>1000 mg). UV-4 was rapidly absorbed and distributed after dosing with the oral solution formulation used in this study. Median time to reach maximum plasma concentration ranged from 0.5-1 hour and appeared to be independent of dose. Exposure increased approximately in proportion with dose over the 333-fold dose range. UV-4 was quantifiable in pooled urine over the entire collection interval for all doses.Conclusions/significanceUV-4 is a host-targeted broad-spectrum antiviral drug candidate. At doses in humans up to 1000 mg there were no serious adverse events reported and no subjects were withdrawn from the study due to treatment-emergent adverse events. These data suggest that therapeutically relevant drug levels of UV-4 can be safely administered to humans and support further clinical development of UV-4 hydrochloride or other candidate antivirals in the iminosugar class.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT02061358 https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02061358.

Project description:ObjectiveFabry disease is a rare X-linked disease caused by mutations to the GLA gene, resulting in a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of ascending single doses of oral migalastat hydrochloride (HCl), an investigational drug, in healthy Japanese volunteers.MethodsIn this phase I, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind, ascending single-dose, cross-over study, migalastat HCl (50 mg, 150 mg, or 450 mg) or placebo was administered orally to 14 fasting male Japanese volunteers (aged 20-55 years) on 4 non-consecutive days. Main plasma and urine pharmacokinetic end-points included maximum observed plasma concentration (C max), time to C max (t max), area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC), apparent terminal-phase half-life (t 1/2), urinary recovery of unchanged drug, renal clearance, and percentage of drug excreted in urine. Safety end-points included adverse events, clinical signs and symptoms (e.g., hematology, chemistry, and urinalysis), vital signs (blood pressure and heart rate), and 12-lead electrocardiogram.Clinical trial registration numberClinicalTrials.gov registration identifier is NCT01853852.ResultsMedian t max of migalastat was 3.0-3.5 h. Migalastat HCl concentrations declined relatively rapidly, with a mean t 1/2 of 3.2-4.0 h. The amount of migalastat HCl recovered in the urine and the percentage of migalastat HCl excreted unchanged over 24 h were consistent (∼45-50%) across the dose range. The AUC and C max of migalastat HCl were dose proportional from 50-450 mg. Safety results were similar to those observed in non-Japanese populations.ConclusionsThis study demonstrated that ascending single doses of migalastat HCl (50 mg, 150 mg, 450 mg) are absorbed at a moderate rate and eliminated relatively rapidly, with a safety profile consistent with that observed in non-Japanese populations. These results confirm the dose-proportional pharmacokinetics of migalastat HCl from 50-450 mg. This study was limited by a small subject population and a short-term follow-up.

Project description:Drug-drug interactions between antiretroviral medications and rifampin complicate the treatment of HIV and tuberculosis coinfection. This study evaluated the effect of rifampin on the pharmacokinetics of oral cabotegravir, an integrase strand transfer inhibitor being investigated for long-acting treatment and prevention of HIV-1 infection. This was a phase I, single-center, open-label, fixed-sequence crossover study in healthy adults. The objective was to evaluate the effect of steady-state rifampin on the single-dose plasma pharmacokinetics of cabotegravir. Subjects received a single oral dose of cabotegravir (30 mg) on day 1 followed by plasma sampling on days 1 to 8. Treatment with once-daily oral rifampin (600 mg) occurred on days 8 to 28. Subjects received a second dose of 30 mg cabotegravir on day 21 followed by pharmacokinetic sampling on days 21 to 28. Fifteen subjects were enrolled and completed the study. Rifampin decreased the cabotegravir area under the concentration-time curve from 0 h to infinity and the half-life by 59% and 57%, respectively, whereas oral clearance was increased 2.4-fold. The maximum concentration of cabotegravir in plasma was unaffected by coadministration with rifampin. All adverse events were mild in severity, with chromaturia attributed to rifampin observed in all subjects. Rifampin induction of cabotegravir metabolism resulted in increased cabotegravir oral clearance and significantly decreased cabotegravir exposures. Rifampin is expected to increase cabotegravir clearance following long-acting injectable administration. Concomitant administration of rifampin with oral and long-acting formulations of cabotegravir is not recommended currently without further study. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration no. NCT02411435.).

Project description:Background: The present study evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), and absolute bioavailability (Fabs) of Dex nasal spray in healthy adult subjects, which serves as a bridge for the subsequent study in children. Methods: Part 1: a double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose study was performed on 48 subjects. For 20-/40-μg groups, every 6/2 subjects received either Dex/placebo nasal spray or Dex/placebo injection in two periods. In total, 12/4 subjects each received 100 μg Dex/placebo nasal spray. Part 2: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study; 12/4 subjects received 150 μg Dex/placebo nasal spray. Part 3: a randomized, open, self-crossover study; 12 subjects received 20 μg and 100 μg Dex nasal spray in two periods alternately. The method of administration was optimized in Part 2 and Part 3. Results: In part 1, Dex nasal spray was well tolerated up to the maximum dose of 100 μg, whereas the Fabs was tolerated to only 28.9%-32.3%. In Part 2 and Part 3, the optimized nasal spray method was adopted to promote the Fabs of Dex nasal spray to 74.1%-89.0%. A severe adverse event was found in Part 2. In Part 3 (100 μg), the Ramsay score increased the most and lasted the longest, whereas the BIS score decreased most significantly. Conclusion: Using the optimized nasal spray method, a single dose of 20/100 μg of the test drug was safe and tolerable, and 100 μg may have approached or reached the plateau of sedation. In addition, it is found that the optimized method can greatly improve the bioavailability of the test drug, leading to its higher reference value.

Project description:Omadacycline, a first-in-class aminomethylcycline antibiotic, is related to tetracyclines but is structurally modified to circumvent mechanisms of resistance to tetracyclines. Omadacycline demonstrates potent activity against a broad range of pathogens, including drug-resistant strains, and is in late-stage development for treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia. Previous studies support an intravenous-to-oral transition regimen with 300-mg once-daily oral dosing. This phase 1 study investigated the pharmacokinetics and safety/tolerability of multiple oral omadacycline doses higher than 300 mg. Using a 3-period crossover design, healthy adults were randomized to receive oral omadacycline at 300, 450, and 600 mg in variable sequence (n = 26) or placebo (n = 7) once daily for 5 consecutive days per period. In plasma, omadacycline maximum concentration and total exposure increased with increasing dose but were less than dose proportional. The kinetics of omadacycline plasma accumulation were similar between dose levels; exposure on day 5 was ?50% higher than that on day 1. Omadacycline plasma concentrations on day 1 of 450-mg dosing were similar to those on day 5 of 300-mg dosing. All doses were generally well tolerated, but the 600-mg dose was associated with more gastrointestinal adverse events.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the mass balance, metabolic disposition, and pharmacokinetics of a single dose of regorafenib in healthy volunteers. In addition, in vitro metabolism of regorafenib in human hepatocytes was investigated.MethodsFour healthy male subjects received one 120 mg oral dose of regorafenib containing approximately 100 µCi (3.7 MBq) [14C]regorafenib. Plasma concentrations of parent drug were derived from HPLC-MS/MS analysis and total radioactivity from liquid scintillation counting (LSC). Radiocarbon analyses used HPLC with fraction collection followed by LSC for all urine samples, plasma, and fecal homogenate extracts. For the in vitro study, [14C]regorafenib was incubated with human hepatocytes and analyzed using HPLC-LSC and HPLC-HRMS/MS.ResultsRegorafenib was the major component in plasma, while metabolite M-2 (pyridine N-oxide) was the most prominent metabolite. Metabolites M-5 (demethylated pyridine N-oxide) and M-7 (N-glucuronide) were identified as minor plasma components. The mean concentration of total radioactivity in plasma/whole blood appeared to plateau at 1-4 h and again at 6-24 h post-dose. In total, 90.5% of administered radioactivity was recovered in the excreta within a collection interval of 12 days, most of which (71.2%) was eliminated in feces, while excretion via urine accounted for 19.3%. Regorafenib (47.2%) was the most prominent component in feces and was not excreted into urine. Excreted metabolites resulted from oxidative metabolism and glucuronidation.ConclusionsRegorafenib was eliminated predominantly in feces as well as by hepatic biotransformation. The multiple biotransformation pathways of regorafenib decrease the risk of pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions.

Project description:AimsTo characterize the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and safety of esaxerenone, a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, in healthy adult Japanese men.MethodsDouble-blind, placebo-controlled, sequential, dose-escalation studies were conducted in subjects randomized to receive oral once-daily esaxerenone (ranges: 5-200 mg [single-dose]; 10-100 mg over 10 days [multiple-dose]) or placebo under fasting conditions. Plasma concentrations were analysed by liquid chromatograph-tandem mass spectrometry. Pharmacokinetic parameters were determined by noncompartment analysis. Plasma/urine levels of pharmacodynamic biomarkers for mineralocorticoid receptor activity were evaluated.ResultsIn total, 48/48 and 39/40 subjects completed the single- and multiple-dose studies, respectively. Exposures were generally dose-proportional. The tmax , t1/2 and CL/F remained unchanged, independent of dose; the respective ranges were 1.5-4.0 h, 22.3-25.1 h, and 4.0-5.2 l h-1 (multiple-dose study). Vz /F ranged from 136.5 to 283.7 l in the multiple-dose study, and exposure reached steady state by day 4. The mean observed accumulation ratio, by dose, ranged from 1.36-1.98. The urinary Na+ /K+ ratio increased after single-dose administration; however, its relationship to the doses tested remains unclear. Plasma renin activity, active renin concentration and aldosterone concentration increased dose-dependently. Although blood potassium levels increased dose-dependently in the multiple-dose study (reaching a maximum mean ± standard deviation of 4.63 ± 0.354 mmol l-1 in the 100-mg group), no safety/tolerability-related problems were detected in either study.ConclusionsExposure levels in healthy adults receiving esaxerenone were generally dose-proportional. Dose-dependent changes in plasma pharmacodynamic biomarkers for the mineralocorticoid receptor were identified during multiple-dose treatment and support the pharmacological activity of esaxerenone. No important safety concerns were identified.

Project description:AimThe primary objective was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of neratinib, a potent, low-molecular-weight, orally administered, irreversible pan-ErbB (ErbB-1, -2, -4) receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, during co-administration with ketoconazole, a potent CYP3A4 inhibitor.MethodsThis was an open-label, randomized, two-period, crossover study. Fasting healthy adults received a single oral dose of neratinib 240 mg alone and with multiple oral doses of ketoconazole 400 mg. Blood samples were collected up to 72 h after each neratinib dose. Plasma concentration data were analyzed using a noncompartmental method. The least square geometric mean ratios [90% confidence interval (CI)] of C(max) (neratinib+ketoconazole): C(max) (neratinib alone), and AUC(neratinib+ketoconazole): AUC(neratinib alone) were assessed.ResultsTwenty-four subjects were enrolled. Compared with neratinib administered alone, co-administration of ketoconazole increased neratinib C(max) by 3.2-fold (90% CI: 2.4, 4.3) and AUC by 4.8-fold (3.6, 6.5). Median t(max) was 6.0 h with both regimens. Ketoconazole decreased mean apparent oral clearance of neratinib from 346 lh(-1) to 87.1 lh(-1) and increased mean elimination half-life from 11.7 h to 18.0 h. The incidence of adverse events was comparable between the two regimens (50% neratinib alone, 65% co-administration with ketoconazole).ConclusionCo-administration of neratinib with ketoconazole, a potent CYP3A inhibitor, increased neratinib C(max) by 3.2-fold and AUC by 4.8-fold compared with administration of neratinib alone. These results indicate that neratinib is a substrate of CYP3A and is susceptible to interaction with potent CYP3A inhibitors and, thus, dose adjustments may be needed if neratinib is administered with such compounds.

Project description:AimsTo verify whether the oral insulin N11005 is administered as a prandial insulin by assessing the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety profiles of N11005 with a short-acting biosynthetic human insulin (Novolin R) as reference.MethodsThis was a randomized, open-label, single-dose, crossover hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp study in healthy Chinese male subjects. A total of 12 subjects were enrolled in the test (T) group (N11005, 300 IU, p.o.) and the reference (R) group (Novolin R, 0.1 IU/Kg, i.h.) with a washout period of 14 days. All subjects were administered on the same day of the clamp study. Glucose Infusion Rates (GIR), serum insulin, and C-peptide concentration were determined during every 8-hour clamp cycle. Trial registration: Clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT04975022.ResultsAfter administration, the ratios of mean serum C-peptide concentration to baseline concentration in both T and R groups were lower than 50%, which confirmed the stability of the clamp platform. T group (N11005) showed a more rapid onset of action (tGIR10%max≈11 min) and a comparable duration of action to the R group, which was basically in line with the characteristics of prandial insulins. No adverse events (AEs) occurred throughout the study, which demonstrated that N11005 and Novolin R are safe and well-tolerated.ConclusionsThe PD profiles of the single-dose N11005 in the human body are similar to those of prandial insulins, with an excellent safety profile.Clinical trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT04975022.

Project description:Delafloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic to treat skin infections, exhibits a broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. The first randomized, open-label phase I clinical trial was conducted to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of intravenous delafloxacin in the Chinese population. A population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model based on the clinical trial was conducted by NONMEM software. Monte Carlo simulation was performed to evaluate the antibacterial effects of delafloxacin at different doses in different Chinese populations. The PK characteristics of delafloxacin were best described by a three-compartment model with mixed linear and nonlinear clearance. Body weight was included as a covariate in the model. We simulated the AUC0-24h in a steady state at five doses in patient groups of various weights. The results indicated that for patients weighing 70 kg and treated with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections, a minimum dose of 300 mg achieved a PTA > 90% at MIC90 of 0.25 µg/mL, suggesting an ideal bactericidal effect. For patients weighing less than 60 kg, a dose of 200 mg achieved a PTA > 90% at MIC90 of 0.25 µg/mL, also suggesting an ideal bactericidal effect. Additionally, this trial demonstrated the high safety of delafloxacin in single-dose and multiple-dose groups of Chinese. Delafloxacin (300 mg, q12h, iv) was recommended for achieving optimal efficacy in Chinese bacterial skin infections patients. To ensure optimal efficacy, an individualized dose of 200 mg (q12h, iv) could be advised for patients weighing less than 60 kg, and 300 mg (q12h, iv) for those weighing more than 60 kg.
