Effect of Azimilide Dihydrochloride on Renal Function
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study will assess the effect of multiple dosing of 125 mg azimilide on glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and total creatinine clearance (GFR + active secretion) in healthy subjects. Also, it will assess the effect of multiple dosing of 125 mg azimilide on renal hemodynamics (RPF) in healthy subjects.

Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
This is a double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, multiple-dose, single-site study in healthy male and female volunteers. Oral azimilide 125 mg or placebo will be administered every 12 hours for 3 days, followed by 125 mg every 24 hours for 3 days. The study will include a total of 21 healthy subjects (14 active and 7 placebo), all of whom will be confined at the study center for 9 nights.
