No effect of a single supratherapeutic dose of lersivirine, a next-generation nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, on corrected QT interval in healthy subjects.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of a supratherapeutic dose of lersivirine (LRV) on corrected QT (QTc) interval using Fridericia's equation (QTcF) in healthy subjects. In this randomized, single-dose, placebo- and active-controlled 3-way crossover study, healthy adult males (n = 48) were randomized to receive LRV (2,400 mg), moxifloxacin (400 mg), or placebo for each treatment period. Triplicate 12-lead electrocardiogram measurements were performed, PK samples were collected, and vital signs were measured. Adverse event monitoring and safety laboratory testing were performed. All subjects were white (mean age, 39 years; body mass index [BMI], 25.6 kg/m(2)) and completed the study. Following LRV administration, the upper bound of the 90% confidence interval (CI) for time-matched adjusted mean differences to placebo QTcF at each time point postdose was below the regulatory threshold of 10 ms, satisfying the criteria for a negative thorough QT/QTc study. The highest upper bound of QTcF 90% CI occurred at 6 h for LRV (3.32 ms; 90% CI, 1.47 to 5.17 ms). The study was deemed adequately sensitive as the lower bound of the 90% CI for the adjusted mean QTcF differences between moxifloxacin and placebo at the moxifloxacin historical T(max) of 3 h was >5 ms (15.29 ms; 90% CI, 13.44 to 17.14 ms). There was no statistically significant relationship between LRV exposure and placebo-adjusted change from baseline QTcF or clinically significant changes in QRS complex, pulse rate (PR) interval, heart rate, or blood pressure. LRV (2,400 mg) did not prolong the QTcF interval, and no clinically relevant electrocardiogram or vital sign changes were observed in healthy subjects.

Project description:BackgroundDabigatran etexilate is a pro-drug of the oral reversible direct thrombin inhibitor dabigatran that interacts with the active site in the catalytic domain of the thrombin molecule.ObjectiveTo assess the electrophysiological effects of therapeutic and supratherapeutic doses of dabigatran etexilate in healthy subjects, a thorough QT study was performed.MethodsIn this single-centre, blinded, placebo- and active-controlled, four-period, crossover study, 40 healthy Caucasian subjects (20 women and 20 men) received single oral doses of dabigatran etexilate (150 mg and 600 mg), moxifloxacin 400 mg (positive control) or placebo, in a randomized order. Electrocardiogram (ECG) profiles were recorded at baseline and during the randomized study treatment in each period. The individually heart-rate-corrected QT interval (QTcI) was the primary parameter. The primary endpoint was the mean of these QTcI values obtained at 1.5, 2 and 3 h following study drug administration minus the mean of the time-matched QTcI values obtained at baseline day -1. The hypothesis tested was that the difference between each of the two doses of dabigatran etexilate (150 mg and 600 mg) and placebo, for the mean time-matched change from baseline (CfB) of QTcI between 1.5 and 3 h (the primary endpoint), was greater than or equal to 10 ms. Secondary endpoints were the time-matched CfB of QTcI between 0.5 and 24 h post-dose.ResultsAll subjects completed the study without premature discontinuation and all treatments were well tolerated. Following dabigatran etexilate administration, the mean values of the placebo-adjusted time-matched CfB of QTcI between 1.5 and 3 h post-dose were close to 0; the upper bound of the two-sided 90 % confidence interval (CI) was 1.4 ms for dabigatran etexilate 150 mg and 1.3 ms for dabigatran etexilate 600 mg. The placebo-adjusted time-matched CfB of QTcI remained close to 0 at all time points, and all 90 % CIs were between -5 ms and 5 ms, well below the pre-defined non-inferiority margin of 10 ms.ConclusionThis thorough QT study demonstrated that therapeutic and fourfold supratherapeutic doses of dabigatran etexilate do not prolong QT intervals.
