Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study evaluates safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of emodepside, after administration as a Liquid Service Formulation (LSF), over 10 days, in healthy male caucasian subjects.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: LSF emodepside (BAY 44-4400) or matching placebo
Phase 1

Detailed Description

There is an urgent need for a macrofilaricidal drug, killing or sterilizing permanently O. volvulus adult worms, which could be used in individual case management and, after appropriate testing, as an alternative drug to ivermectin in Mass Drug Administration (MDA) programs. Emodepside is a promising candidate to kill the adult and sexually mature O. volvulus as explained below. Emodepside was shown to be macrofilaricidal against a variety of filarial nematodes and is a registered drug for animal health, commercialized by Bayer AG under the name of Profender® (in combination with praziquantel) or Procox® (in combination with toltrazuril).

A first-in-human (FIH) double-blind, placebo-controlled study of single ascending doses of emodepside in healthy Caucasian men has been conducted and the preliminary results are favourable, supporting continuation of the Phase I development program. In the present repeat dose study, PK as well as safety and tolerability of the liquid service formulation of emodepside, given over 10 days, will be tested.

Title Geometric Mean Emodepside Plasma Pharmacokinetic Concentration-Time Data During the Repeated Dosing Period
Description Summary of geometric mean emodepside plasma pharmacokinetic concentration-time data (ng/mL) during the repeated dosing period (Days 0-9) in healthy men. Subjects in the 10 mg emodepside BID dosing group had twice-daily doses on Days 0-8 and a single dose on the morning of Day 9. Therefore, the Day 9, 24 h post-dose value was not comparable to the previous value in that dosing group.

Title The Ctrough of Emodepside in Plasma
Description Summary of Ctrough (log-transformed) of emodepside after last (Day 9) dose for 10-day oral treatment courses in healthy men: PK parameter population. Data on Day 9 was collected at the following time points: pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 24, 36 (Day 10), 48 (Day 11), 72 (Day 12), 96 (Day 13) and 120 h (Day 14) after the morning dose. Ctrough: trough plasma concentration (measured concentration at the end of a dosing interval on Day 9 [taken directly before next administration]) obtained directly from the concentration-time data. The geometric coefficient of variation is the between-subject coefficient of variation (%CVb).
