To Investigate Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Treatment With BI 660848 Rising Single Doses (From 2 mg to 600 mg) Administered as Oral Drinking Solution (Powder in Bottle).
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
As a transition from preclinical investigations to clinical development in this first-in-human trial, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of BI 660848 will be assessed in human male volunteers using single rising oral doses in order to provide the basis for a potential ongoing clinical development of BI 660848 in the indication of neuropathic pain.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Safety and tolerability (number and intensity of adverse events). [4 months]
- Changes in blood pressure. [4 months]
- Changes in pulse rate. [4 months]
- Changes in respiratory rate. [4 months]
- Changes in 12-lead ECG. [4 months]
- Changes in clinical laboratory test parameters. [4 months]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Cmax (maximum measured concentration of the analyte in plasma) [3 days]
- tmax (time from dosing to maximum measured concentration) [3 days]
- AUC (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity) [3 days]
- t1/2 (terminal half-life of the analyte in plasma) [3 days]
- MRT (mean residence time of the analyte in the body after drug intake) [3 days]
- CL/F (apparent clearance of the analyte in plasma after extravascular administration) [3 days]
- Vz/F (apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase following an extravascular dose) [3 days]
- Aet1-t2 (amount of analyte eliminated in urine from the time point t1 to time point t2) [3 days]
- fet1-t2 (fraction of analyte eliminated in urine from the time point t1 to time point t2) [3 days]
- CL R,t1-t2 (renal clearance of the analyte from the time point t1 until the time point t2) [3 days]
