A Study To Assess The Pharmacokinetics Of SB-742457 Formulated As A Capsule And A Tablet In Healthy Elderly Volunteers.

This study has been completed.

Sponsored by: GlaxoSmithKline
Information provided by: GlaxoSmithKline
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00551772
  Purpose

SB-742457 is a 5HT6 receptor antagonist that is in development for the symptomatic treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease . To date, all clinical trials have been conducted using a capsule formulation of SB-742457. However, it is intended to conduct all futures studies with a tablet formulation. The aim of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic profile of SB-742457 and its major metabolites following single doses of both the capsule and tablet formulations.

Study Design:   Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Crossover Assignment, Bio-availability Study
Official Title:   An Open-Label, Randomised, Two-Part Crossover Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics of a Single Dose of SB-742457 Formulated as a Capsule and a Tablet in Healthy Elderly Volunteers.

Further study details as provided by GlaxoSmithKline:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To characterise pharmacokinetics ( AUC(0-inf) and Cmax ) of SB-742457 from pre-dose to 96 hours following single doses formulated as a capsule and a tablet. [ Time Frame: pre-dose to 96 hours ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To assess safety and tolerability (adverse events, blood pressure, heart rate, 12-lead ECG, blood haematology/clinical chemistry and urinalysis) of SB-742457 following single doses formulated as a capsule and a tablet over the 6 week study period. [ Time Frame: 6 week study period ]

Estimated Enrollment:   12

Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   Yes

Criteria

Inclusion criteria:

  • Men or surgically sterile or post-menopausal women
  • Healthy as judged by a responsible physician. No clinically significant abnormality identified on the medical or lab evaluation.
  • BMI between 18.5 and 32.0 kg/m2

Exclusion criteria:

  • A positive pre-study urine screen for drugs of abuse
  • Abuse of alcohol
  • Subjects who smoke more than 10 cigarettes or equivalent a day.
  • Use of prescription drugs as well as herbal and dietary supplements within 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication, unless in the opinion of the Investigator and sponsor the medication will not interfere with the study procedures or compromise subject safety.
  • Where participation in the study would result in donation of blood in excess of 500ml within a 56 day period.
  • Has a history or presence of gastro-intestinal, hepatic or renal disease or other condition known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of drugs.
  • The subject has received an investigational drug or participated in another research trial within 30 days or 5 half-lives, or twice the duration of the biological effect of any drug (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of current study medication.
  • Known or suspected history of seizures, including febrile seizures, unexplained recent loss of consciousness or history of significant head trauma with loss of consciousness.
