Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Food Effects on TAC-302 in Healthy Participants: Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single-Dose and Multiple-Dose Studies.

ABSTRACT: TAC-302 stimulates neurite outgrowth activity and is expected to restore urinary function in patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction. We conducted 2 phase 1, randomized, placebo-controlled studies to confirm the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of TAC-302 in healthy adult Japanese male volunteers. In the first-in-human single-dose study (n = 60), TAC-302 was administered at doses from 100 to 1200 mg after an overnight fast. The effects of a meal on the PK of TAC-302 400 mg were also examined. A multiple-dose study (n = 36) evaluated the effects of meal fat content on the PK of single doses of TAC-302 (100, 200, or 400 mg) and multiple doses of TAC-302 administered for 5 days (100, 200, and 400 mg twice daily). TAC-302 showed linear PK up to doses of 1200 mg in the fasting state, and across the dose range of 100-400 mg in the fed state. No accumulation of TAC-302 was observed. Food, particularly with high fat content, increased TAC-302 plasma concentrations. No differences were observed in the adverse event incidence between the TAC-302 and placebo groups in either study. TAC-302 showed a wide safety margin.
