Phase 1

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, double-blind, sequential, dose-escalation, Phase 1 trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of verdinexor. Verdinexor or placebo will be given on Days 1 and 3 to healthy adult participants.

Cohorts of 8 participants each (6 active, 2 placebo) will be sequentially administered verdinexor or placebo (one dose on Day 1 and one dose on Day 3) using a dose-escalation scheme. A conservative, sequential, dose-escalation strategy employing decreasing escalation increments will be used.

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs) [From start of study drug administration up to Day 33]

      An AE was defined as the appearance of (or worsening of any pre-existing) undesirable sign, symptom, or medical condition that occur after participant's signed informed consent obtained. A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any AE, occurring at any dose (including after the informed consent form was signed and prior to dosing) that and regardless of causality that: results in death, was life-threatening (participant was at immediate risk of death from event as it occurred), requires in-patient hospitalization (formal admission to a hospital for medical reasons) or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect. TEAE was defined as any AE with onset or worsening of a pre-existing condition on or after the first administration of study treatment through 30 days following last dose or any event considered drug-related by the investigator through the end of the study.

      Elimination rate constant was calculated using linear regression on the terminal portion of the log-linear concentration versus time curve.

    7. Elimination Half-life (t1/2) of Verdinexor [Days 1 and 3: pre-dose, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 (only for Day 3) hours post-dose]

      t1/2 was defined as elimination half-life, it was calculated as ln(2)/kel.

    8. Apparent Total Body Clearance (Cl/F) of Verdinexor [Days 1 and 3: pre-dose, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 (only for Day 3) hours post-dose]

      An AR was defined as a ratio of mean of Cmax Day 3/ Cmax Day 1 for plasma verdinexor.

    11. Accumulation Factor (AR) of Cavg0-24Hour [Days 1 and 3: pre-dose, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24 hours post-dose]

      An AR was defined as a ratio of mean of Cavg0-24hour Day 3/ Cavg0-24hour Day 1 for plasma verdinexor.

    12. Accumulation Factor (AR) of AUC0-t [Days 1 and 3: pre-dose, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 (only for Day 3) hours post-dose]

      An AR factor was defined as a ratio of mean of AUC0-t Day 3/ AUC0-t Day 1 for plasma verdinexor.

    13. Accumulation Factor (AR) of AUC0-inf [Days 1 and 3: pre-dose, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 (only for Day 3) hours post-dose]

      Accumulation factor was defined as a ratio of mean of AUC0-inf Day 3/ AUC0-inf Day 1 for plasma verdinexor.

    14. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Verdinexor [From start of study drug administration up to Day 8]

      MTD was defined as the dose level tested in the cohort immediately preceding a cohort where one or more dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed. A DLT was defined as any AE or abnormal laboratory value that the Investigator suspected was probably related to verdinexor that was severe in intensity or serious or Indicative of an unacceptable risk to additional participants in the study in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor.

    Title Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Verdinexor
    Description MTD was defined as the dose level tested in the cohort immediately preceding a cohort where one or more dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed.
