ABSTRACT The pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of posaconazole, an investigational triazole antifungal, were evaluated following the administration of rising single and multiple oral doses. A total of 103 healthy adults were enrolled in two phase I trials. Each study had a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group design with a rising single-dose (RSD) or rising multiple-dose (RMD) scheme. In the RSD study, subjects received single doses of posaconazole oral tablets (50 to 1,200 mg) or placebo. In the RMD study, subjects received posaconazole oral tablets (50 to 400 mg) or placebo twice daily for 14 days. By using model-independent methods, the area under the plasma concentration-time curve and the maximum concentration in plasma were determined and used to assess dose proportionality. In the RSD study, the levels of posaconazole in plasma increased proportionally between the 50- and 800-mg dose range, with saturation of absorption occurring above 800 mg. Dose proportionality was also observed in the RMD study. In both studies, the apparent volume of distribution was large (range, 343 to 1,341 liters) and the terminal-phase half-life was long (range, 25 to 31 h). Posaconazole was well tolerated at all dose levels, and the adverse events were not dose dependent. No clinically significant changes in clinical laboratory test values or electrocardiograms were observed. Following the administration of single and twice-daily rising doses, the level of posaconazole exposure increased in a dose-proportional manner. The long elimination-phase half-life of posaconazole supports once- or twice-daily dosing in clinical trials; however, additional studies are required to determine if further division of the dose will enhance exposure.

SCTA01 is a novel monoclonal antibody with promising prophylactic and therapeutic potential for COVID-19. This study aimed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and immunogenicity of SCTA01 in healthy adults. This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation phase I clinical trial. Healthy adults were randomly assigned into the following four cohorts, Cohort 1 (n=5, 3:2), Cohort 2 (n=8, 6:2), Cohort 3 and Cohort 4 (both n=10, 8:2), to receive SCTA01 (5, 15, 30 and 50 mg/kg, respectively) versus placebo. All participants were followed up for clinical, laboratory, PK and immunogenicity assessments for 84 days. The primary outcomes were the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximal tolerable dose (MTD), and the secondary outcomes included PK parameters, immunogenicity and adverse events (AE). Of the 33 participants, 18 experienced treatment-related AEs; the frequency was 52.0% (13/25) in participants receiving SCTA01 and 62.5% (5/8) in those receiving placebo. All AEs were mild. There was no serious AE or death. No DLT was reported, and MTD of SCTA01 was not reached. SCTA01 with a dose range 5-50mg/kg had nearly linear dose-proportional increases in C max and AUC parameters. An anti-drug antibody response was detected in four (16.0%) participants receiving SCTA01, with low titers, between the baseline and day 28, but all became negative later. In conclusion, SCTA01 up to 50mg/kg was safe and well-tolerated in healthy participants. Its PK parameters were nearly linear dose-proportional.

ABSTRACT 1263W94 [maribavir; 5,6-dichloro-2-(isopropylamino)-1, β-l-ribofuranosyl-1-H-benzimidazole], a novel benzimidazole compound, has been demonstrated to potently and selectively inhibit human cytomegalovirus replication in vitro and to have favorable safety profiles in animal species. Two phase I trials evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics of escalating single doses of 1263W94 in 13 healthy subjects (dose, 50 to 1,600 mg) and 17 human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected subjects (dose, 100 to 1,600 mg). No severe safety concerns were observed in the evaluation of adverse events, vital signs, electrocardiograms, and clinical laboratory tests following administration of a single dose of 1263W94. The most frequently reported adverse events in both populations were taste disturbance (80%) and headache (53%). 1263W94 was rapidly absorbed following oral administration, with peak concentrations in plasma (C max) occurring 1 to 3 h after dosing. The increases in the C max of 1263W94 and the area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-∞) for 1263W94 were dose dependent; C max increased slightly less than proportionally to the dose, and AUC0-∞ increased slightly more than proportionally to the dose. 1263W94 was rapidly eliminated, with a mean half-life in plasma of 3 to 5 h; the half-life was independent of the dose level. Less than 2% of the 1263W94 dose administered was eliminated unchanged in urine. The principal metabolite of 1263W94 was 4469W94 (which is derived by N-dealkylation of 1263W94 via CYP3A4), which accounted for 30 to 40% of the dose in urine. Greater than 98% of the 1263W94 in plasma is bound to proteins, and the extent of binding appears to be constant over the dose range of 200 to 1,600 mg. In the trial with HIV-infected subjects, consumption of a high-fat meal decreased the 1263W94 AUC0-∞ and C max in plasma by ∼30%.

Nutritional ketosis is a state of mildly elevated blood ketone concentrations resulting from dietary changes (e.g., fasting or reduced carbohydrate intake) or exogenous ketone consumption. In this study, we determined the tolerability and safety of a novel exogenous ketone diester, bis-hexanoyl-(R)-1,3-butanediol (BH-BD), in a 28-day, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel trial (NCT04707989). Healthy adults (n = 59, mean (SD), age: 42.8 (13.4) y, body mass index: 27.8 (3.9) kg/m2) were randomized to consume a beverage containing 12.5 g (Days 0–7) and 25 g (Days 7–28) of BH-BD or a taste-matched placebo daily with breakfast. Tolerability, stimulation, and sedation were assessed daily by standardized questionnaires, and blood and urine samples were collected at Days 0, 7, 14, and 28 for safety assessment. There were no differences in at-home composite systemic and gastrointestinal tolerability scores between BH-BD and placebo at any time in the study, or in acute tolerability measured 1-h post-consumption in-clinic. Weekly at-home composite tolerability scores did not change when BH-BD servings were doubled. At-home scores for stimulation and sedation did not differ between groups. BH-BD significantly increased blood ketone concentrations 1-h post-consumption. No clinically meaningful changes in safety measures including vital signs and clinical laboratory measurements were detected within or between groups. These results support the overall tolerability and safety of consumption of up to 25 g/day BH-BD.

ABSTRACT VL-2397 is an antifungal drug with a novel mechanism of action, rapid fungicidal in vitro activity, and potent in vivo activity against Aspergillus fumigatus, including azole-resistant strains. VL2397-101, a phase 1 first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose-escalation study, was conducted in healthy adults to determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and multiple ascending intravenous (i.v.) doses of VL-2397. All dosing cohorts were fully enrolled; all subjects completed the safety follow-up. A safety committee reviewed the safety data for each dosing cohort prior to recommending the initiation of each subsequent cohort. No serious adverse events (SAEs) occurred; the majority of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild and self-limited. The most common drug-related TEAEs were infusion site reactions. No clinically concerning trends were noted in vital signs, electrocardiograms, physical examinations, or safety laboratory results. Following single infusions of VL-2397, the overall and maximum exposures rose less than proportionally with increasing doses from 3 mg to 1,200 mg as indicated by area under the concentration-time curve over 24 h (AUC24) and maximum concentration (Cmax). No signs of VL-2397 accumulation were observed following i.v. infusions of 300, 600, and 1,200 mg every 24 h (q24h) for 7 days. Renal elimination played a major role in total body clearance, with up to 47% of unmetabolized drug in urine 24 h after administration at single doses of >30 mg. Overall, VL-2397 dosing in the study appeared to be safe and well tolerated in the healthy subjects. The safety profile, consistent PK, and lack of drug accumulation support further development of VL-2397 in patients with invasive aspergillosis.

ABSTRACTFerroquine (SSR97193), a ferrocene-quinoline conjugate, is a promising novel antimalarial currently undergoing clinical evaluation. This study characterizes its pharmacokinetic properties. Young male African volunteers with asymptomaticPlasmodium falciparuminfection were administered a single oral dose (n= 40) or a repeated oral dose (n= 26) given over 3 days of ferroquine in two dose-escalation, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials. In addition, a food interaction study was performed in a subsample of participants (n= 16). The studies were carried out in Lambaréné, Gabon. After single-dose administration of ferroquine, dose linearity was demonstrated in a dose range of 400 to 1,200 mg for maximum mean blood concentrations ([Cmax] 82 to 270 ng/ml) and in a dose range of 400 to 1,600 mg for overall exposure to ferroquine (area under the concentration-time curve [AUC], 13,100 to 49,200 ng · h/ml). Overall mean estimate for blood apparent terminal half-life of ferroquine was 16 days and 31 days for its active and major metabolite desmethylferroquine (SSR97213). In the 3-day repeated-dose study,Cmaxand overall cumulated exposure to ferroquine (AUCcum) increased in proportion with the dose from day 1 to day 3 between 400 and 800 mg. No major food effect on ferroquine pharmacokinetics was observed after single administration of 100 mg of ferroquine except for a slight delay of time to maximum blood concentration (tmax) by approximately 3 h. The pharmacokinetics of ferroquine and its active main metabolite are characterized by sustained levels in blood, and the properties of ferroquine as a partner drug in antimalarial combination therapy should be evaluated.

Background and Objective: HEC30654 is a selective 5-HT6 receptor antagonist that was safe and well-tolerated in preclinical models of Alzheimer’s disease. The objective of this double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of HEC30654 after single ascending doses in healthy Chinese subjects.Methods: Healthy volunteers received a single oral dose of HEC30654 (5, 10, 15, 30, 60 mg). Safety and tolerability assessments included adverse events, vital signs, and findings on electrocardiograms, electroencephalograms, physical examination, and clinical laboratory tests. Pharmacokinetic analysis of HEC30654 and its major metabolite HEC93263 were conducted in blood, urine, and fecal samples.Results: Single doses of HEC30654 up to 30 mg were generally safe and well tolerated, but dose escalation was terminated early as the 60 mg HEC30654 treatment group met the pre-defined stopping rules specified in the protocol. Median tmax of HEC30654 was 6 h (range, 4–12 h), t1/2 of 10–60 mg HEC30654 ranged from 52.1 to 63.8 h. Exposure to HEC30654 across the dose range explored in this study increased more than in proportion to dose. Metabolism of HEC30654 to HEC93263 was slow (<10%), and HEC30654 was mainly eliminated unchanged through feces.Conclusion: Single doses of HEC30654 up to 30 mg were generally safe and well tolerated. Based on preclinical efficacy in various models of cognition, HEC30654 may represent a therapeutic option for symptomatic treatment of cognitive disorders.

Objective Botulism is a rare, life-threatening paralytic disease caused by Clostridium botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT). Available treatments including an equine antitoxin and human immune globulin are given post-exposure and challenging to produce and administer. NTM-1632 is an equimolar mixture of 3 human IgG monoclonal antibodies, B1, B2, and B3, targeting BoNT serotype B (BoNT/B). This first-in-human study assessed the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and immunogenicity of NTM-1632. Methods This double-blind, single-center, placebo-controlled dose escalation study, randomized 3 cohorts of healthy volunteers to receive a single intravenous dose of NTM-1632 (0.033, 0.165, or 0.330 mg/kg) or saline placebo. Safety monitoring included physical examinations, clinical laboratory studies, and vital signs. Blood sampling was performed at pre-specified time points for PK and immunogenicity analyses. Results Twenty-four subjects received study product (18 NTM-1632; 6 placebo), and no deaths or serious adverse events were reported. Adverse events in the NTM-1632 groups were generally mild and similar in frequency and severity to the placebo group, and no safety signal was identified. NTM-1632 has a favorable PK profile with a half-life >20 days for the 0.330 mg/kg dose and an approximately linear relationship with respect to maximum concentration and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0→t). NTM-1632 demonstrated low immunogenicity with only a few treatment-emergent anti-drug antibody responses in the low and middle dosing groups and none at the highest dose. Interpretation NTM-1632 is well-tolerated at the administered doses. The favorable safety, PK, and immunogenicity profile of NTM-1632 supports further clinical development as a treatment for BoNT/B intoxication and post-exposure prophylaxis.

3′-Azido-2′, 3′-dideoxyuridine (AZDU, AzddU, CS-87) has been shown to have potent anti-HIV activity in vitro. However, the compound exhibits a relatively short half-life and incomplete oral bioavailability in humans. In an effort to improve the pharmacokinetic properties of AZDU, prodrug 3′-azido-2′,3′-dideoxyuridine-5′- O-valinate hydrochloride (AZDU-VAL) was synthesized by the esterification of 5′-OH function in AZDU. The objective of this study was to investigate the biotransformation and pharmacokinetics of AZDU-VAL along with its antiviral parent compound AZDU following intravenous and oral administration to rats. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were administered AZDU or AZDU-VAL by intravenous injection or oral gavage. Concentrations of AZDU-VAL and AZDU were determined by HPLC. Pharmacokinetic parameters were generated by area-moment analysis. The bioavailability of AZDU after oral administration was approximately 53%. The terminal phase half-life of the nucleoside analogue ranged between 0.6 h after intravenous administration and 1 h following oral administration. In vivo the prodrug was rapidly and efficiently biotransformed to yield AZDU following intravenous and oral administration. The apparent availability of AZDU was virtually complete following oral administration of prodrug AZDU-VAL averaging 101%. The bioavailability of AZDU following intravenous administration of AZDU-VAL averaged 106%. In summary, the disposition of AZDU was dose dependent over the dose range of 25–100 mg/kg. Renal clearance and steady state volume of distribution were lower at the higher dose level. Prodrug AZDU-VAL demonstrated improved oral bioavailability as evidenced by complete absorption and efficient bioconversion to AZDU. The results suggest that AZDU-VAL may be a promising prodrug for the delivery of AZDU.

Abstract. Novel erythropoiesis stimulating protein (NESP) is a hyperglycosylated analogue of recombinant human erythropoietin (Epoetin) which has an increased terminal half-life in animal models. The aim of this study was to extend these observations to humans. Using a double-blind, randomized, cross-over design, the single-dose pharmacokinetics of Epoetin alfa (100 U/kg) and an equivalent peptide mass of NESP were compared following intravenous bolus in 11 stable peritoneal dialysis patients. This was followed by an open-label study to determine the single-dose pharmacokinetics of an equivalent peptide mass of NESP by subcutaneous injection in six of these patients. The mean terminal half-life for intravenous NESP was threefold longer than for intravenous Epoetin (25.3 versus 8.5 h), a difference of 16.8 h (95% confidence interval, 9.4 to 24.2 h, P = 0.0008). The area under the serum concentration—time curve was significantly greater for NESP (291.0 ± 7.6 ng · h per ml versus 131.9 ± 8.3 ng · h per ml; mean ± SEM; P < 0.0005), and clearance was significantly lower (1.6 ± 0.3 ml/h per kg versus 4.0 ± 0.3 ml/h per kg; mean ± SEM; P < 0.0005). The volume of distribution was similar for NESP and Epoetin (52.4 ± 2.0 ml/kg versus 48.7 ± 2.1 ml/kg; mean ± SEM). The mean terminal half-life for subcutaneous NESP was 48.8 h. The peak concentration of subcutaneous NESP was approximately 10% of that following intravenous administration, and bioavailability was approximately 37% by the subcutaneous route. The longer half-life of NESP is likely to confer a clinical advantage over Epoetin by allowing less frequent dosing in patients treated for anemia.

ABSTRACTACHN-490 is an aminoglycoside with activity against multidrug-resistant pathogens, including those resistant to currently used aminoglycosides. Two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical studies investigated the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of ACHN-490 injection in healthy subjects. Study 1 used a parallel-group design with escalating single (SD) and multiple doses (MD). Study 2 explored a longer duration of the highest dose tolerated in the first study. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive either ACHN-490 injection or a placebo administered by a 10-min intravenous infusion. Study 1 enrolled 39 subjects (30 active and 9 placebo) and consisted of a single dose of 1 mg/kg body weight followed by ascending SD and MD cohorts of 4, 7, 11, and 15 mg/kg for 10, 10, 5, and 3 days, respectively. Study 2 enrolled 8 subjects (6 active and 2 placebo) who received 15 mg/kg for 5 days. Safety was assessed from adverse event (AE) reporting, standard clinical laboratory procedures, and testing for renal, cochlear, and vestibular function. ACHN-490 exhibited linear and dose-proportional PK, with agreement between the studies for PK parameters assessed. The 15-mg/kg dose did not accumulate with repeated dosing over 5 days. Mean steady-state (±standard deviation) area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h (AUC0-24), maximum concentration of drug in serum (Cmax), half-life (t1/2), clearance, and volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) for the 15-mg/kg, day 5 dose were 239 ± 45 h·mg/liter, 113 ± 17 mg/liter, 3 ± 0.3 h, 1.1 ± 0.1 ml/min/kg, and 0.24 ± 0.04 liters/kg, respectively. AEs were mild to moderate and rapidly resolved. No evidence of nephrotoxicity or ototoxicity was observed.
