Pharmacokinetics of dalfampridine extended release 7.5-mg tablets in healthy subjects and individuals with mild and moderate renal impairment: an open-label study.

ABSTRACT: Dalfampridine extended release tablets (D-ER; prolonged-release fampridine in Europe) are available to improve walking in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). D-ER is mainly renally eliminated; the approved 10-mg twice daily dose is contraindicated in the United States in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment. This study evaluated single-dose and steady-state pharmacokinetics of a 7.5-mg dose of D-ER in healthy subjects (n = 13) and subjects with mild (n = 17) and moderate (n = 12) renal impairment. D-ER plasma concentrations were consistently higher in subjects with renal impairment relative to healthy individuals with a significant (P < .0001) inverse linear relationship between creatinine clearance and drug exposure. Steady-state AUC0-12 among healthy subjects, 167.0 ± 55.3 ng h/mL, increased 74% and 151% with mild and moderate renal impairment, respectively. The overall incidence of adverse events was 61.5%, 47.1%, and 33.3% in healthy subjects, and subjects with mild and moderate renal impairment, respectively, and for treatment-related adverse events the rates were 0%, 17.6%, and 8.3%, respectively. The most common adverse events were headache, dizziness, and arthralgia. The pharmacokinetics of D-ER 7.5-mg twice daily in subjects with mild renal impairment was comparable to 10-mg twice daily in patients with MS who had normal renal function. Exposure was significantly higher in moderate renal impairment.

Project description:UnlabelledThe present study aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetic properties of febuxostat in healthy Chinese male volunteers and evaluate whether the two formulations of febuxostat 40-mg and 80-mg tablets are bioequivalent. A randomized, open-label, 4-way crossover study was conducted in healthy Chinese male volunteers under fasting conditions. 24 eligible subjects were randomized in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to receive a single dose of test or reference formulation of febuxostat 40-mg or 80-mg tablet. The washout period between each administration was 1 week. Plasma febuxostat was quantified by a validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. Tolerability was evaluated by monitoring adverse events, physical examinations, 12-lead ECG and laboratory tests. After single-dosing of 1 tablet of 40-mg febuxostat, the pharmacokinetic parameters of test and reference formulations were: Tmax 1.22±0.87 and 1.85±1.03 h, Cmax 1689.16±461.31 and 1613.80±608.43 ng·mL-1, AUC0-t 5139.87±1349.28 and 5517.91±2024.26 ng·mL-1·h, AUC0-∞ 5263.06±1339.16 and 5640.48±2040.22 ng·mL-1·h, t1/2 4.82±2.61 and 4.85±1.78 h, respectively. After single-dosing of 1 tablet of 80-mg febuxostat, the pharmacokinetic parameters of test and reference formulations were: Tmax 1.71±1.21 and 2.23±1.55 h, Cmax 2744.47±1157.44 and 2998.17±1200.13 ng·mL-1, AUC0-t 9634.03±2768.25 and 10467.95±3501.65 ng·mL-1·h, AUC0-∞ 9834.32±2730.51 and 10626.63±3504.08 ng·mL-1·h, t1/2 6.25±2.44 and 5.46±1.65 h, respectively. For single-dosing of 1 tablet of 40-mg febuxostat, 90% CIs for the test/reference ratio of AUC0-t, AUC0-∞ and Cmax were 89.79 to 102.55, 90.14 to 102.56 and 93.99 to 129.63, respectively. For single-dosing of 1 tablet of 80-mg febuxostat, 90% CIs for the test/reference ratio of AUC0-t, AUC0-∞ and Cmax were 86.67 to 100.00, 87.50 to 100.51 and 79.48 to 105.99, respectively. This single dose study revealed similar pharmacokinetic properties in healthy Chinese male volunteers as those found in Caucasic population. The test and reference febuxostat tablets formulations met the regulatory criteria for bioequivalence at 40-mg and 80-mg strengths in fasting healthy Chinese male volunteers.Trial registrationChictr.org ChiCTR-TTRCC-14004288.

Project description:Baclofen, a racemic γ-aminobutyric acid B receptor agonist, is commonly used for the management of multiple sclerosis-related spasticity but is associated with frequent dosing and poor tolerability. Arbaclofen, the active R-enantiomer of baclofen, exhibits 100- to 1000-fold greater specificity for the γ-aminobutyric acid B receptor compared with the S-enantiomer and ∼5-fold greater potency compared with racemic baclofen. Arbaclofen extended-release tablets allow a dosing interval of 12 h and have shown a favourable safety and efficacy profile in early clinical development. A 12-week, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial in adults with multiple sclerosis-related spasticity demonstrated that arbaclofen extended-release 40 mg/day significantly reduced spasticity symptoms compared with placebo and was safe and well tolerated. The current study is an open-label extension of the Phase 3 trial designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of arbaclofen extended-release. In a 52-week, open-label, multicentre study, adults with a Total Numeric-transformed Modified Ashworth Scale score ≥2 in the most affected limb received oral arbaclofen extended-release titrated over 9 days up to 80 mg/day based on tolerability. The primary objective was assessment of arbaclofen extended-release safety and tolerability. Secondary objectives included an assessment of efficacy using the Total Numeric-transformed Modified Ashworth Scale-most affected limb, the Patient Global Impression of Change and Expanded Disability Status Scale. Of 323 patients enrolled, 218 (67.5%) completed 1 year of treatment. Most patients (74.0%) achieved an arbaclofen extended-release maintenance dose of 80 mg/day. At least one treatment-emergent adverse event was reported by 278 patients (86.1%). The most common adverse events were [n patients (%)]: urinary tract disorder [112 (34.7)], muscle weakness [77 (23.8)], asthenia [61 (18.9)], nausea [70 (21.7)], dizziness [52 (16.1)], somnolence [41 (12.7)], vomiting [29 (9.0)], headache [24 (7.4)] and gait disturbance [20 (6.2)]. Most adverse events were of mild-moderate severity. Twenty-eight serious adverse events were reported. One death occurred during the study, a myocardial infarction that was considered by investigators as unlikely to be related to treatment. Overall, 14.9% of patients discontinued due to adverse events, primarily muscle weakness, multiple sclerosis relapse, asthenia and nausea. Evidence of improvement in multiple sclerosis-related spasticity was observed across arbaclofen extended-release dosages. Arbaclofen extended-release treatment (up to 80 mg/day) was well tolerated and reduced symptoms of spasticity in adult patients with multiple sclerosis for 1 year.
