Project description:Preclinical studies show that GABA exerts anti-diabetic effects in rodent models of type 1 diabetes. Because little is known about its absorption and effects in humans, we investigated the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of GABA in healthy volunteers. Twelve subjects were subjected to an open-labeled, three-period trial involving sequential oral administration of placebo, 2 g GABA once, and 2 g GABA three times/day for 7 days, with a 7-day washout between each period. GABA was rapidly absorbed (Tmax: 0.5 ~ 1 h) with the half-life (t1/2) of 5 h. No accumulation was observed after repeated oral GABA administration for 7 days. Remarkably, GABA significantly increased circulating insulin levels in the subjects under either fasting (1.6-fold, single dose; 2.0-fold, repeated dose; p < 0.01) or fed conditions (1.4-fold, single dose; 1.6-fold, repeated dose; p < 0.01). GABA also increased glucagon levels only under fasting conditions (1.3-fold, single dose, p < 0.05; 1.5-fold, repeated dose, p < 0.01). However, there were no significant differences in the insulin-to-glucagon ratio and no significant change in glucose levels in these healthy subjects during the study period. Importantly, GABA significantly decreased glycated albumin levels in the repeated dosing period. Subjects with repeated dosing showed an elevated incidence of minor adverse events in comparison to placebo or the single dosing period, most notably transient discomforts such as dizziness and sore throat. However, there were no serious adverse events observed throughout the study. Our data show that GABA is rapidly absorbed and tolerated in human beings; its endocrine effects, exemplified by increasing islet hormonal secretion, suggest potential therapeutic benefits for diabetes.

Project description:To investigate the population pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of bivalirudin, a synthetic bivalent direct thrombin inhibitor, in young healthy Chinese subjects.Thirty-six young healthy volunteers were randomly assigned into 4 groups received bivalirudin 0.5 mg/kg, 0.75 mg/kg, and 1.05 mg/kg intravenous bolus, 0.75 mg/kg intravenous bolus followed by 1.75 mg/kg intravenous infusion per hour for 4 h. Blood samples were collected to measure bivalirudin plasma concentration and activated clotting time (ACT). Population PK-PD analysis was performed using the nonlinear mixed-effects model software NONMEM. The final models were validated with bootstrap and prediction-corrected visual predictive check (pcVPC) approaches.The final PK model was a two-compartment model without covariates. The typical PK population values of clearance (CL), apparent distribution volume of the central-compartment (V(1)), inter-compartmental clearance (Q) and apparent distribution volume of the peripheral compartment (V(2)) were 0.323 L·h(-1)·kg(-1), 0.086 L/kg, 0.0957 L·h(-1)·kg(-1), and 0.0554 L/kg, respectively. The inter-individual variabilities of these parameters were 14.8%, 24.2%, fixed to 0% and 15.6%, respectively. The final PK-PD model was a sigmoid E(max) model without the Hill coefficient. In this model, a covariate, red blood cell count (RBC(*)), had a significant effect on the EC(50) value. The typical PD population values of maximum effect (E(max)), EC(50), baseline ACT value (E(0)) and the coefficient of RBC(*) on EC(50) were 318 s, 2.44 mg/L, 134 s and 1.70, respectively. The inter-individual variabilities of E(max), EC(50), and E(0) were 6.80%, 46.4%, and 4.10%, respectively.Population PK-PD models of bivalirudin in healthy young Chinese subjects have been developed, which may provide a reference for future use of bivalirudin in China.

Project description:Venglustat is a small-molecule glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) inhibitor designed to reduce the production of glucosylceramide (GL-1) and thus is expected to substantially reduce formation of glucosylceramide-based glycosphingolipids. Because of its effect on glycosphingolipid formation, GCS inhibition has therapeutic potential across many disorders affecting glycosphingolipid metabolism. Therefore, venglustat is under development for substrate reduction therapy in multiple diseases, including Gaucher disease type 3, Parkinson's disease associated with GBA mutations, Fabry disease, GM2 gangliosidosis, and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Phase 1 studies were conducted in healthy volunteers to determine venglustat pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and tolerability and to assess food effects on pharmacokinetics (single-dose and food-effect studies: NCT01674036; repeated-dose study: NCT01710826). Following a single oral dose of venglustat l-malate (2, 5, 15, 25, 50, 100, or 150 mg), venglustat demonstrated linear pharmacokinetics, rapid absorption (median tmax , 3.00-5.50 hours), systemic exposure unaffected by food, low apparent total body clearance (mean CL/F, 5.18-6.43 L/h), and pooled geometric mean t1/2z of 28.9 hours. Following repeated once-daily oral doses of venglustat l-malate (5, 10, or 20 mg) for 14 days, apparent steady state occurred within 5 days of repeated dosing, with pooled accumulation ratios of 2.10 for Cmax and 2.22 for AUC0-24 , and no statistically significant effect of dose or sex on accumulation. The mean fraction of dose excreted unchanged in urine (fe0-24 ) was 26.3% to 33.1%. Plasma GL-1 and GM3 decreased time- and dose-dependently. Venglustat demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile.

Project description:This study evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic profiles of nemonoxacin in healthy Chinese volunteers following multiple-dose intravenous infusion once daily for 10 consecutive days. The study was composed of two stages. In the open-label stage, 500 mg or 750 mg of nemonoxacin (n = 12 each) was administered at an infusion rate of 5.56 mg/min. In the second stage, with a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled design, 500, 650, or 750 mg of nemonoxacin (n = 16 in each cohort; 12 subjects received the drug and the other 4 subjects received the placebo) was given at an infusion rate of 4.17 mg/min. The results showed that, in the first stage, the maximal nemonoxacin concentrations (mean ± SD) at steady state (Cmax_ss) were 9.60 ± 1.84 and 11.04 ± 2.18 μg/ml in the 500-mg and 750-mg cohorts, respectively; the areas under the concentration-time curve at steady state (AUC0-24_ss) were 44.03 ± 8.62 and 65.82 ± 10.78 μg · h/ml in the 500-mg and 750-mg cohorts, respectively. In the second stage, the nemonoxacin Cmax_ss values were 7.13 ± 1.47, 8.17 ± 1.76, and 9.96 ± 2.23 μg/ml in the 500-mg, 650-mg, and 750-mg cohorts, respectively; the AUC0-24_ss values were 40.46 ± 9.52, 54.17 ± 12.10, and 71.34 ± 17.79 μg · h/ml in the 500-mg, 650-mg, and 750-mg cohorts, respectively. No accumulation was found after the 10-day infusion with any regimen. The drug was well tolerated. A Monte Carlo simulation indicated that the cumulative fraction of response of any dosing regimen was nearly 100% against Streptococcus pneumoniae. The probability of target attainment of nemonoxacin therapy was >98% when the MIC of nemonoxacin against S. pneumoniae was ≤1 mg/liter. It is suggested that all of the studied intravenous nemonoxacin dosing regimens should have favorable clinical and microbiological efficacies in future clinical studies. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration no. NCT01944774.).

Project description:Trandolapril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor prodrug, needs to be activated by carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) in the liver to exert its intended therapeutic effect. A previous in vitro study demonstrated that the CES1 genetic variant G143E (rs71647871) abolished CES1-mediated trandolapril activation in cells transfected with the variant. This study aimed to determine the effect of the G143E variant on trandolapril activation in human livers and the pharmacokinetics (PKs) and pharmacodynamics (PDs) in human subjects. We performed an in vitro incubation study to assess trandolapril activation in human livers (5 G143E heterozygotes and 97 noncarriers) and conducted a single-dose (1 mg) PK and PD study of trandolapril in healthy volunteers (8 G143E heterozygotes and 11 noncarriers). The incubation study revealed that the mean trandolapril activation rate in G143E heterozygous livers was 42% of those not carrying the variant (p = 0.0015). The clinical study showed that, relative to noncarriers, G143E carriers exhibited 20% and 15% decreases, respectively, in the peak concentration (Cmax ) and area under the curve from 0 to 72 h (AUC0-72 h ) of the active metabolite trandolaprilat, although the differences were not statistically significant. Additionally, the average maximum reductions of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in carriers were ~ 22% and 23% less than in noncarriers, respectively, but the differences did not reach a statistically significant level. In summary, the CES1 G143E variant markedly impaired trandolapril activation in the human liver under the in vitro incubation conditions; however, this variant had only a modest impact on the PK and PD of trandolapril in healthy human subjects.

Project description:Benralizumab is a humanized, afucosylated, anti-interleukin-5 receptor α, immunoglobulin G (IgG) 1 κ monoclonal antibody. We developed a population pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD) model for benralizumab by analyzing PK and blood eosinophil count data from two healthy volunteer studies (N = 48) and four studies in patients with asthma (N = 152). Benralizumab PK was dose-proportional and adequately described by a two-compartment model with first-order elimination from the central compartment and first-order absorption from the subcutaneous dosing site. The estimated systemic clearance and volume of distribution were typical for human IgG. Body weight and high-titer antidrug antibodies were identified as relevant covariates influencing the PK of benralizumab. Depletion of blood eosinophil counts was depicted by a modified transit model in which benralizumab induced depletion of eosinophils in each age compartment. Stochastic simulations supported an every-8-week dosing schedule of benralizumab for a phase IIb study in patients with uncontrolled asthma.

Project description:AimsSoticlestat, a first-in-class inhibitor of cholesterol 24-hydroxylase (also known as cytochrome P450 46A1), is currently in development for the treatment of developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Here, we report safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic outcomes from a phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-rising-dose study of soticlestat in healthy adults.MethodsFive cohorts of healthy subjects (n = 8 each, randomized 6:2 soticlestat:placebo) received oral soticlestat 100-600 mg once daily (QD) or 300 mg twice daily (BID) for 10-14 days. Serial blood and urine samples were obtained on days 1, 7 (blood only) and 14.ResultsSoticlestat in the dose range 100-400 mg/day for up to 14 days was generally well tolerated. In total, 45 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported; most (91%) were transient and mild in intensity. Two subjects experienced TEAEs leading to discontinuation: one receiving soticlestat 600 mg QD reported a severe event of acute psychosis; another receiving 300 mg BID reported a mild event of confusional state. Steady-state exposure to soticlestat increased in a slightly greater than dose-proportional manner across the dose range 100-400 mg QD. Peak plasma concentrations were reached within 0.33-0.5 hour, and soticlestat elimination half-life was approximately 4 hours. Renal excretion of soticlestat was negligible. Soticlestat 100-400 mg QD reduced 24S-hydroxycholesterol levels by 46.8 (coefficient of variation [CV%] -9.2) to -62.7% (CV% -7.3) at steady state; values of enzymatic inhibition were compatible with antiepileptic effects observed in preclinical models.ConclusionThe pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of soticlestat characterized here provided a data-driven rationale for clinical trial dose selection.

Project description:Background:Carvedilol is commonly used to treat hypertension as a ?- and ?1-adrenoreceptor blocker, but it is metabolized by CYP2D6, and CYP2D6*10 allele is dominant in Asian population. The objective of this study was to assess the influence of CYP2D6 polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) characteristics of carvedilol in healthy Korean volunteers. Methods:A PK/PD study for a single and multiple dosing of carvedilol were conducted. All volunteers in 3 genotypic groups received single oral dose of carvedilol 12.5 mg for 3 days, then 25 mg QD for 5 days, and 12.5 mg QD for another 3 days. PK parameters for carvedilol and its three metabolites were determined using non-compartmental analysis. For PD properties, blood pressure, heart rate, and the chronotropic dose 25 (CD25) value were obtained. Results:The IM_2 group with two *10 alleles (intermediate metabolizers) exhibited lower clearance of carvedilol as well as higher area under the curve (AUC) for O-desmethyl carvedilol. The ratio of CD25 to baseline at multiple dosing was significantly higher in the combined IM group (IM_1 and IM_2) than in the EM group, however, the ratio of CD25 after single and multiple dosing and the other PD markers were not significantly different between the 3 genotypic groups compared with the baseline. Conclusion:These findings showed that CYP2D6 genotype influenced the PK characteristics of carvedilol and no differences in PD response were observed in Korean healthy volunteers.

Project description:AimsHetrombopag olamine is a novel small-molecule, nonpeptide thrombopoietin receptor agonist developed for immune thrombocytopenia treatment. This study aims to determine the safety and the effect of fasting duration after administration of hetrombopag on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in Chinese healthy subjects.MethodsA randomized, open-label, single-dose, 3-period crossover, self-control trial was conducted. 15 eligible subjects were enrolled and received hetrombopag 7.5 mg at day 1 of each period followed by a standard meal 4 hours postdose (treatment A/fasting condition), or a high-calorie, high-fat meal 1 hour postdose (treatment B), or a high-calorie, high-fat meal 2 hours postdose (treatment C). The plasma concentrations of hetrombopag were determined by validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, platelet counts were quantified by blood test. Analysis was performed using a mixed model, including treatment, period as fixed effects and participant as a random effect.ResultsCompared with treatment A, peak concentration and area under concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity decreased by 56 and 74.6%, and 44 and 61% in treatments B and C, respectively. The mean platelet number on day 6 increased by 15.8, 6.96 and 10.26%, respectively, in treatments A, B and C in comparison with baseline platelet level. No severe adverse events happened in any of the 3 treatments.ConclusionHetrombopag was well tolerated in healthy male subjects under fasted/fed conditions. The shorter fasting duration resulted in lower hetrombopag exposure, corresponding to a lower level of platelet elevation. Therefore, we recommended oral administration of hetrombopag on an empty stomach (fasting condition) or at least 2 hours before a meal to achieve maximum bioavailability.

Project description:Tegoprazan, a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker, is used to treat acid-related diseases. However, there is no information on the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles of the marketed dosage of tegoprazan under various meal timings in a fed and fasted state. The study aimed to assess the effect of meal timing on PKs and PDs of tegoprazan 50 mg after a single administration in healthy male subjects. An open-label, single-dose, three-treatment, three-period crossover study was conducted. A total of 12 subjects were orally administered a single dose of tegoprazan 50 mg among various conditions: in a fasted state, at 30 min before or 30 min after a high-fat meal. PK parameters were estimated by the noncompartmental method. Continuous 24-h intragastric pH monitoring was done for PD analysis. The PKs and PDs of tegoprazan were compared among the various meal timings. Compared with the fasting condition, the PK profile of tegoprazan was similar when administered 30 min before a high-fat meal; however, delayed absorption with similar systemic exposure was observed when administered 30 min after a high-fat meal. The magnitude of acid suppression evaluated through the PD parameters increased when administered 30 min after a high-fat meal compared with fasting the condition and when administered 30 min before a high-fat meal. However, the increased difference in acid suppression was not clinically significant. Meal timing had no clinically significant effect on the PKs and PDs of tegoprazan 50 mg. Therefore, the marketed dosage of tegoprazan could be administered regardless of the meal timing. Study Highlights WHAT IS THE CURRENT KNOWLEDGE ON THE TOPIC? Tegoprazan, a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker, is used to treat acid-related diseases. WHAT QUESTION DID THIS STUDY ADDRESS? This study evaluated the effect of food on pharmacokinetics (PKs) and pharmacodynamics (PDs) of tegoprazan under various mealtime conditions. WHAT DOES THIS STUDY ADD TO OUR KNOWLEDGE? This study showed that delayed absorption of tegoprazan was observed at "after meal condition," however, the amount of systemic exposure of "after meal condition" was similar to "fasting condition" and "before meal condition." In addition, gastric acid suppression of tegoprazan was similar between fasting condition and before meal condition, whereas increased gastric acid suppression was observed at after meal condition. HOW MIGHT THIS CHANGE CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY OR TRANSLATIONAL SCIENCE? In the actual clinical environment, patients take medicine under various fed conditions. This study evaluated the effect of food on PKs and PDs of tegoprazan in various clinical conditions, and provided the important information about meal timing when administering tegoprazan.
