Project description:To evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of TAK-438 (vonoprazan, a potassium-competitive acid blocker) in healthy male subjects.In two phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single rising-dose studies, healthy male subjects (Japan N=84; UK N=63) received a single TAK-438 dose (1-120?mg in Japan and 1-40?mg in the UK). Assessments included safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics (intragastric pH).Plasma concentration-time profiles of TAK-438 at all dose levels showed rapid absorption (median Tmax up to 2?h). Estimated mean elimination half-life was up to 9?h. Exposure was slightly greater than dose proportional. No clear difference in TAK-438 pharmacokinetics was observed between Japanese and non-Japanese subjects. Acid suppression was dose dependent and similar in both studies. The 24-h intragastric pH ?4 holding time ratio with 40?mg TAK-438 was 92% in Japan and 87% in the UK. TAK-438 was well tolerated, with no adverse events reported in Japanese subjects; 10 of 63 UK subjects experienced 12 treatment-emergent adverse events (non-serious). Increases in serum gastrin and pepsinogen I and II concentrations were observed at doses ?10?mg, but there were no changes in alanine aminotransferase concentrations.Single oral doses of TAK-438 20-120?mg caused rapid, profound, and 24-h suppression of gastric acid secretion in healthy male subjects, regardless of geographical region, and TAK-438 was well tolerated at all doses studied, making it a potential alternative to proton pump inhibitors for the treatment of acid-related disorders.

Project description:Dupilumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the interleukin (IL)-4 receptor ? subunit (IL-4R?) of IL-4 heterodimeric type I and type II receptors that mediate IL-4/IL-13 signaling through this pathway. Blockade of these receptors broadly suppresses type 2 inflammation associated with atopic/allergic diseases, including atopic dermatitis and asthma. Six phase 1 studies investigated the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and tolerability of dupilumab in healthy subjects. Two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, sequential studies assessed safety and tolerability of single escalating dupilumab doses administered intravenously or subcutaneously (one included various racial groups, and one included exclusively Japanese subjects); 3 randomized, parallel-group, single-dose studies compared the pharmacokinetic profiles of different dupilumab products and formulations after single subcutaneous doses; and one study assessed dupilumab administered as fast versus slow subcutaneous injections. Dupilumab concentrations in serum were measured in all studies, and total immunoglobulin E (IgE) and thymus- and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) concentrations were measured in 2 studies as pharmacodynamic markers. Across the phase 1 studies, dupilumab exhibited target-mediated pharmacokinetics consisting of parallel linear and nonlinear elimination, with the target-mediated phase highly dominated by nonlinearity at lower drug concentrations. Systemic exposure and tolerability of dupilumab were consistent irrespective of differences in product, formulation, or racial background. Dupilumab reduced circulating concentrations of total IgE and TARC, indicating blockade of IL-4R?-mediated signaling. Dupilumab had a favorable safety profile across the wide range of doses administered. Together, these findings support the continued development and use of dupilumab in treatment of type 2 diseases.

Project description:Isavuconazole, administered as the water-soluble prodrug isavuconazonium sulfate, is a new triazole agent used to treat invasive fungal infections. This phase 1 study evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of isavuconazole in 46 immunocompromised pediatric patients, stratified by age (1 to <6 [intravenous (i.v.) only], 6 to <12, and 12 to <18 years), receiving 10 mg/kg body weight (maximum, 372 mg) isavuconazonium sulfate either i.v. or orally. A population PK model using weight-based allometric scaling was constructed with the pediatric i.v. and oral data plus i.v. data from a phase 1 study in adults. The best model was a 3-compartment model with combined zero-order and first-order input, with linear elimination. Stepwise covariate modeling was performed in Perl-speaks-NONMEM version 4.7.0. None of the covariates examined, including age, sex, race, and body mass index, were statistically significant for any of the PK parameters. The area under the concentration-time curve at steady state (AUCSS) was predicted for pediatric patients using 1,000 Monte Carlo simulations per age cohort for each administration route. The probability of target attainment (AUCSS range, 60 to 233 μg · h/ml) was estimated; this target range was derived from plasma drug exposures in adults receiving the recommended clinical dose. Predicted plasma drug exposures were within the target range for >80% and >76% of simulated pediatric patients following i.v. or oral administration, respectively. Intravenous and oral administration of isavuconazonium sulfate at the studied dosage of 10 mg/kg was well tolerated and resulted in exposure in pediatric patients similar to that in adults. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under identifier NCT03241550).

Project description:Background and objectivesRotigotine is a dopamine receptor agonist with activity across the D1 through to D5 receptors as well as select serotonergic and adrenergic sites; continuous transdermal delivery of rotigotine with replacement of the patch once daily maintains stable plasma concentrations over 24 h. Rotigotine is indicated for the treatment of early and advanced-stage Parkinson's disease and moderate-to-severe idiopathic restless legs syndrome. The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a drug may vary between subjects of different ethnic origin. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of single-dose treatment with rotigotine transdermal patch in Japanese and Caucasian subjects.MethodsIn this open-label, parallel-group study, healthy male and female subjects of Japanese or Caucasian ethnic origin were matched by sex, body mass index, and age. A single transdermal patch delivering 2 mg/24 h rotigotine (patch content 4.5 mg) was applied to the ventral/lateral abdomen for 24 h. The main outcome measures were the plasma concentrations of unconjugated and total rotigotine and its desalkyl metabolites and derived pharmacokinetic parameters (area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable concentration [AUClast], maximum plasma concentration [Cmax], and body weight- and dose-normalized values).ResultsThe pharmacokinetic analysis included 48 subjects (24 Japanese, 24 Caucasian). The mean apparent dose of rotigotine was 2.0±0.5 mg for Japanese subjects and 2.08±0.58 mg for Caucasians. Plasma concentration-time profiles of unconjugated rotigotine and of the main metabolites were similar for both ethnic groups. Parameters of model-independent pharmacokinetics, Cmax, time to Cmax (tmax), and AUClast, for unconjugated rotigotine showed no statistically significant differences between Japanese and Caucasian subjects. Values of concentration-dependent pharmacokinetic parameters were higher in female subjects; this difference was minimized after correction for body weight. A statistically significant difference between ethnic groups was observed for total rotigotine concentrations (total rotigotine=unconjugated rotigotine+conjugated rotigotine), with slightly lower values in Caucasians after correction for body weight and apparent dose. No relevant differences were observed between males and females. Inter-individual variability was high. The terminal half-life for unconjugated rotigotine was 5.3 h in Japanese subjects and 5.7 h in Caucasians; corresponding values for total rotigotine were 8.6 h and 9.6 h. Less than 0.1% of the apparent dose was renally excreted as the parent compound. Renal elimination of total rotigotine covers 11.7% of absorbed dose in Japanese subjects and 10.8% of the absorbed dose in Caucasians, whereas the renal elimination via total despropyl rotigotine was 8.2 and 7.1%, respectively. The corresponding values for total desthienylethyl rotigotine were 3.5% in Japanese subjects and 4.2% Caucasians. Most adverse events were mild in intensity and typical for dopamine agonists or for transdermal therapeutics.ConclusionAdministration of a single patch delivering 2 mg/24 h rotigotine resulted in comparable pharmacokinetic profiles in Japanese and Caucasian subjects. The rotigotine transdermal patch was generally well-tolerated. Our findings suggest similar dose requirements for Japanese and Caucasian populations.

Project description:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Roxadustat is an orally active hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor for the treatment of anemia in chronic kidney disease. This study investigated the effect of multiple daily oral doses of omeprazole on the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of a single oral dose of roxadustat. METHODS:This phase 1, open-label, two-period, one-sequence, crossover study enrolled healthy subjects. During Period 1, subjects received a single oral dose of 100 mg roxadustat. After a ??7-day washout, subjects started Period 2 and received daily oral doses of 40 mg omeprazole on Days 1-9, and a single oral dose of 100 mg roxadustat on Day 7. Roxadustat pharmacokinetics were assessed on Days 1-4 in Period 1 and on Days 7-10 in Period 2. Primary endpoints were area under the concentration-time profile from the time of dosing extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf) and maximum concentration (Cmax). Safety was assessed by vital signs, laboratory tests, electrocardiograms, and nature, frequency, and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). RESULTS:Eighteen subjects were enrolled. The geometric least squares mean ratio for both AUCinf and Cmax of roxadustat (with omeprazole/alone) was 104.5%; 90% confidence intervals were within the no-effect boundaries of 80.0 and 125.0%, indicating no significant effect of omeprazole on the pharmacokinetics of roxadustat. No serious TEAEs were reported. CONCLUSION:Multiple daily oral doses of 40 mg omeprazole had no significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose of 100 mg roxadustat. Roxadustat was considered safe and well tolerated when administered alone or in combination with multiple daily oral doses of 40 mg omeprazole in healthy subjects.

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:Isavuconazonium sulfate is the water-soluble prodrug of the novel, broad-spectrum, triazole antifungal agent isavuconazole. A size 0 elongated hard capsule containing 100 mg equivalent of isavuconazole is the currently marketed oral formulation in countries where it is approved. An alternative oral formulation, based on a lower-strength and smaller-size capsule, is required for pediatric and adolescent patients, as well as for some adult Japanese patients, especially those with difficulties swallowing larger capsules. This study was conducted to evaluate the bioequivalence of a size 0 elongated capsule containing 100 mg equivalent of isavuconazole and a size 3 capsule containing 40 mg equivalent of isavuconazole, after administration of 200 mg equivalent of isavuconazole (5 size 3 capsules or 2 size 0 elongated capsules) under fasted conditions. Bioequivalence of isavuconazole between the formulations was demonstrated, since point estimates (90%CI) for the ratio of the size 0 elongated capsules vs the size 3 capsules for maximum plasma concentration and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration were within the acceptable range of 0.8 to 1.25. It was confirmed that both formulations were well tolerated, and no new safety signals were observed in healthy Japanese adult male subjects.

Project description:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:Atacicept is an inhibitor of the B lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS) and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), and is being studied in relation to immunological disease. Currently, limited data on atacicept are available in non-Caucasian subjects. Pharmacokinetic data from earlier studies of atacicept were derived using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which was subsequently found to have inadequacies. Hence, a new bioanalytical ELISA for total atacicept was developed and validated. We conducted this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase I study to compare the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of atacicept in healthy Japanese and Caucasian subjects while generating pharmacokinetic data using the new ELISA. METHODS:Japanese subjects aged???18 to???55 years (n? =?24) were randomized (1:1:1:1) to a single subcutaneous dose of atacicept 25, 75, or 150 mg or placebo. Caucasian subjects were then enrolled to match the Japanese subjects' gender, body weight (±?20%), and height (±?15%). RESULTS:Atacicept was well tolerated and there were no clinically significant differences in treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), vital signs, or laboratory parameters between the Japanese and Caucasian subjects. Most (90%) TEAEs were mild; no severe or serious TEAEs or deaths occurred. Weight-adjusted atacicept exposure was comparable between ethnicities and across doses: the Japanese/Caucasian ratio of the area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to the last sampling point (AUC0-t) was 107.21% (90% CI 93.42-123.02%) and the Japanese/Caucasian ratio of maximum serum concentration (Cmax) was 95.74% (90% CI 74.26-123.43%; ANCOVA). Median time to reach Cmax (tmax) was 20-60 h across all subjects. Dose-exposure relationships were comparable for the two ethnicities, with dose-normalized AUC0-t decreasing with increasing dose, indicating nonlinear pharmacokinetics for the doses examined. There were no statistically significant differences between ethnicities in the pharmacokinetics-dose relationship. Some transient dose-related decreases in mean serum immunoglobulin (Ig)A and IgM, but not IgG, were observed after atacicept administration. There were small transient increases in peripheral B cell numbers in the first 4 days after dosing that were larger with atacicept than with placebo, with no apparent dose relationship. No anti-atacicept antibodies were detected. CONCLUSION:The safety, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic profiles of atacicept in healthy Japanese subjects were comparable to those in healthy Caucasian subjects. EudraCT-ID: 2013-002703-34.

Project description:Nafithromycin (WCK 4873), a novel lactone-ketolide, was administered to healthy adult subjects in 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 1 studies. In the first-in-human study, single-ascending oral doses of nafithromycin (100 to 1200 mg) were administered to subjects under fasted or fed condition, with effects of food on bioavailability of nafithromycin studied at the dose levels of 400 and 800 mg. In the second study, multiple-ascending oral doses of 600, 800, or 1000 mg of nafithromycin were administered once daily for 7 days under a fed condition. Nafithromycin was generally well tolerated at all doses. No serious or severe adverse events were observed. The mean maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) ranged from 0.099 to 1.742 mg/L, and the area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to time t (AUC0-t ) ranged from 0.54 to 22.53 h⋅mg/L. Nafithromycin plasma AUC0-t increased approximately 1.2-fold under fed compared to fasted condition. In the multiple-dose study, the Day 7 nafithromycin Cmax ranged from 1.340 to 2.987 mg/L and the AUC over the final dosing interval (AUC0-24) ranged from 13.48 to 43.46 h⋅mg/L. The steady state was achieved after 3 days for the 600 mg and 800 mg dose cohorts and after 4 days for the 1000 mg cohort. Under both single- and multiple-dosing regimens, plasma exposure to nafithromycin appeared to increase more than dose-proportionally. Nafithromycin showed moderate accumulation on Day 7 of dosing. The human pharmacokinetic profile, safety and tolerability data support further development of nafithromycin.

Project description:The aim of this study was to assess and compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of Enasidenib in healthy adult male Japanese subjects to healthy adult male Caucasian subjects. This was a phase 1, single dose study to evaluate the PK and safety of Enasidenib in healthy adult male Japanese subjects relative to healthy adult male Caucasian subjects. A total of 62 subjects (31 Japanese and 31 Caucasian) were enrolled into three dose cohorts (single doses of 50 mg, 100 mg, or 300 mg Enasidenib). Blood samples for PK assessment were collected up to 672 hours postdose. Safety was evaluated throughout the study. In the present study, we found that PK exposures of Enasidenib and its metabolite AGI-16903 for Caucasian and Japanese subjects were comparable at the 50, 100, and 300 mg dose levels, demonstrated by that the 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of geometric mean ratios for AUCs and C max between these two populations generally contained 100% from all three treatment cohorts. In conclusion, PK exposures of Enasidenib and its metabolite AGI-16903 for Caucasians and Japanese subjects were comparable and Enasidenib was safe and well tolerated with no apparent differences between Japanese and Caucasian subjects when administered as single oral doses of 50 mg, 100 mg, and 300 mg.
