Effects of Food on the Pharmacokinetics of Omega-3-Carboxylic Acids in Healthy Japanese Male Subjects: A Phase I, Randomized, Open-label, Three-period, Crossover Trial.

ABSTRACT: Omega-3-carboxylic acids (OM3-CA) contain omega-3 free fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), as carboxylic acids. Food intake is known to affect the bioavailability of ethyl ester fatty acid formulations. We conducted a phase I study to investigate the effects of the timing of OM3-CA administration relative to food intake on the pharmacokinetics of EPA and DHA.In this randomized, open-label, three-period crossover study, Japanese healthy male subjects were administered 4×1 g OM3-CA capsules with continued fasting, before a meal, or after a meal. All subjects fasted for ?10 h prior to drug/meal administration. The primary objective was to examine the effect of meal timing on the pharmacokinetics of EPA and DHA after OM3-CA administration. The secondary objectives were to examine the safety and tolerability of OM3-CA.A total of 42 Japanese subjects was enrolled in the study. The baseline-adjusted maximum concentration and area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 72 h for EPA, DHA, and EPA +DHA were lower in the fasting and before meal conditions than in the after meal condition. The maximum total EPA, total DHA, and total EPA+DHA concentrations were reached later when administered in fasting conditions than in fed conditions, indicating slower absorption in fasting conditions. Diarrhea was reported by five, six, and no subjects in the fasting, before meal, and after meal conditions, respectively.The timing of OM3-CA administration relative to food intake influences the systemic bioavailability of EPA and DHA in healthy Japanese male subjects.NCT02372344.

Project description:Background and objectivesYLB113 is being developed as a biosimilar of the antitumor necrosis factor-alpha antagonist etanercept, which is approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other chronic immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. An open-label, crossover, pharmacokinetic study was conducted to compare the relative bioavailability and safety of YLB113 and the etanercept reference product (RP) Enbrel®.MethodsHealthy male subjects aged 18-50 years were randomized to receive a single subcutaneous dose of YLB113 in one period and the etanercept RP in another period. A washout period of 28 days separated the two treatment periods. Blood samples were collected for pharmacokinetic analysis predose and until 480 h postdose during both periods.ResultsOverall, 52 subjects were enrolled, including 51 subjects who completed the first period and 43 subjects who completed the second period. The 90% confidence intervals for the least squares means derived from an analysis of the log-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters maximum serum concentration (Cmax), area under the serum concentration-time curve (AUC) from 0 to the last measurable concentration (AUC(0-t)) and AUC from 0 to infinity (AUC(0-∞)) for etanercept were between the limits of 80 and 125%. Thus, YLB113 met the bioequivalence criterion. YLB113 and the etanercept RP were well tolerated, with 24 subjects reporting 53 adverse events, including 42 mild and 11 moderate events. Treatment-emergent adverse events were reported by 14 and 16 subjects following the administration of YLB113 and the etanercept RP, respectively.ConclusionsA single dose of YLB113 exhibited pharmacokinetic and safety profiles comparable with those of the etanercept RP in healthy adult male subjects. Therefore, YLB113 and the etanercept RP can be considered bioequivalent. These findings support the continued development of YLB113 for use in patients with RA.Jordan food & drug administration unique trial number31/Clinical/2018.

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.
