Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of different dose levels of glyburide for injection, administered as a bolus dose followed by a 3-day continuous infusion. The secondary objectives are to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of glyburide and blood glucose and serum insulin pharmacodynamic (PD) responses to glyburide.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of Participants with Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events [Up to Day 28]

      An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurence such as a sign, symptom, and/or laboratory finding that is concurrent with the use of a drug in humans. A serious adverse event is any AE that is fatal, life-threatening, requires or prolongs hospital stay, results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter of Glyburide: Clearance (CL) [Day 1 (baseline) and at multiple time points up to Day 5]

    2. PK Parameter of Glyburide: Volume of Distribution (Vz) [Day 1 (baseline) and at multiple time points up to Day 5]

    3. PK Parameter of Glyburide: Elimination Rate Constant (λz) [Day 1 (baseline) and at multiple time points up to Day 5]

    4. PK Parameter of Glyburide: Half-Life (t1/2) [Day 1 (baseline) and at multiple time points up to Day 5]

    5. PK Parameter of Glyburide: Predicted Steady-State Concentration (Css) [Day 1 (baseline) and at multiple time points up to Day 5]

    6. PK Paramater of Metabolites (M1 and M2): Maximum Plasma Concentrations (Cmax) [Day 1 (baseline) and at multiple time points up to Day 5]

    7. Pharmacodynamic (PD) Parameter of Glyburide: Change from Baseline in Blood Glucose [Day 1 (baseline) and at multiple time points up to Day 5]

    8. PD Parameter of Glyburide: Change from Baseline in Serum Insulin [Day 1 (baseline) and at multiple time points up to Day 5]

    Yes
    Inclusion Criteria:
    1. A healthy male or a healthy nonpregnant, nonlactating female.

    2. Capable of understanding and complying with the protocol and has signed the informed consent form before the Screening procedures begin.

    3. Have a body mass index of between 18.0 and 30.0 kg/m², inclusive.

    4. A clinically normal physical examination, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), screening laboratory studies and urinalysis.
