Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
This food-interaction study will be conducted in healthy subjects. Each subject will have a screening visit (within the 21 days prior to the first study drug administration to confirm eligibility), 3 single-dose treatment periods separated by a 7- to 14- day washout between doses, and an outpatient end-of-study follow-up visit 14 +/- 2 days after the last dose of study medication. During each treatment period, subjects will receive a single 350-mg relacorilant dose. Based on randomization to 1 of 6 sequences, each subject will receive the relacorilant dose once after a 10.5 hour fast; once 30 minutes after the start of a high-fat meal; and once 30 minutes after the start of a moderate meal.
During the first treatment period only, regardless of randomized sequence, subjects will report to the clinical research unit on the morning of Day -1 for baseline laboratory assessments and to collect samples for assay of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression of glucocorticoid-modulated genes to explore the normal range over the day in healthy subjects. For the subsequent 2 treatment periods, subjects will report to the CRU on the evening of Day -1.
Blood samples for assay of plasma concentration of relacorilant and its main metabolites will be collected pre-dose and at 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, and 96 hours post-dose. Subjects and will remain in the clinic until after the 24-hour blood samples are collected and then be discharged and scheduled to return for the later samples.
Additional samples will be collected for possible future pharmacogenomic analysis.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Area under plasma concentration-time curve up to the last quantifiable sample (AUC0-tz) [predose to 96 hrs postdose]
Ratio of population geometric means (GMR) for Test 1 (standard high fat breakfast) and Reference (fasted) and for Test 2 (standard moderate breakfast) and Reference for relacorilant areas under plasma concentration-time curve up to the last quantifiable sample (AUC0-tz)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Area under plasma concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf) [predose to 96 hrs postdose]
Ratio of population geometric means (GMR) for Test 1 (standard high fat breakfast) and Reference (fasted) and for Test 2 (standard moderate breakfast) and Reference for relacorilant areas under plasma concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf)
- Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) [predose to 96 hrs postdose]
Ratio of population geometric means (GMR) for Test 1 (standard high fat breakfast) and Reference (fasted) and for Test 2 (standard moderate breakfast) and Reference for relacorilant maximum plasma concentration (Cmax).
