Phase 1

Detailed Description

This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multiple-ascending dose study to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of UV-4B oral solution when administered to healthy subjects TID for 7 days. Three cohorts of 8 subjects each (6 active, 2 placebo) are planned and up to 2 additional cohorts may be added pending safety review of the initial cohorts. Safety review will occur after each cohort. Safety is evaluated through Day 15 on the basis of adverse event (AE) monitoring, clinical laboratory testing (hematology, serum chemistry, coagulation, urinalysis), vital signs, physical examinations (PE), electrocardiograms (ECG), and fecal occult blood testing. Blood samples are collected at specified intervals up to Day 10 for pharmacokinetic assessment.

    The incidence of TEAEs spontaneously reported by subjects or elicited during examination is reported by dose group. Subjects having multiple TEAEs are counted only once.

  2. Number of Subjects Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) by Group [From the time of first dosing on Day 1 through the Day 15 final follow-up visit]

    The incidence of SAEs spontaneously reported by subjects or elicited during examination is reported by dose group. Subjects having multiple SAEs are counted only once.

  3. Number of Subjects With Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities of Toxicity Grade 1 or Higher by Group [From the time of first dosing on Day 1 through the Day 15 final follow-up visit]

    Clinical laboratory abnormalities are presented as the total of Grade 1 (mild) through Grade 4 (potentially life-threatening) abnormalities according to criteria adapted from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Guidance for Industry, Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials (September 2007) and the Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (DMID) Adult Toxicity Table (November 2007). Within each parameter, subjects having multiple abnormalities are counted only once.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Subjects With Outlying Vital Sign Results by Group [From the time of first dosing on Day 1 through the Day 15 final follow-up visit]

    Vital signs of blood pressure (BP), pulse, respiratory rate, and oral temperature were taken after being supine for 10 minutes. Orthostatic vital signs (BP, pulse) were taken after 2 minutes standing. Vital sign results are presented as the number of subjects having Grade 1 (mild) through Grade 4 (potentially life-threatening) abnormalities according to criteria adapted from the FDA Guidance for Industry, Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials (September 2007), or having abnormal orthostatic change (standing minus supine result). Within each parameter, subjects having multiple abnormalities are counted only once.

  2. Number of Subjects With 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities Postdose by Group [From the time of first dosing on Day 1 through the Day 15 final follow-up visit]

    ECGs (ventricular heart rate, wave intervals - PR, QRS, QT, QTcF) were recorded in a supine position (for at least 10 minutes). Baseline was calculated from the average of the triplicate ECGs on Day 1 predose. Within each parameter, subjects having multiple abnormalities are counted only once.

    Plasma concentrations of UV-4 are determined by means of high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric assay. Values of AUC(0-last) are derived from individual subject plasma concentration-time data, calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule for increasing concentrations and the logarithmic rule for decreasing concentrations. Blood collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 hrs after the final dose on Day 7.

    Plasma concentrations of UV-4 are determined by means of high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric assay. Values of AUC(0-24) are derived from individual subject plasma concentration-time data, calculated as AUC(0-8) x 3 (Day 7 last dose only). Blood collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 hrs after the final dose on Day 7.

    Plasma concentrations of UV-4 are determined by means of high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric assay. Values of AUC(0-8) are derived from individual subject plasma concentration-time data, calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule for increasing concentrations and the logarithmic rule for decreasing concentrations. Blood collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, and 8 hrs after the first dose on Day 1; and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 hrs after the final dose on Day 7.

  8. Apparent Systemic Clearance (CL/F) at Steady State [Day 7]

    Plasma concentrations of UV-4 are determined by means of high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric assay. Values of CL/F are derived from individual subject plasma concentration-time data, calculated as dose (free-base equivalent) divided by AUC(0-8). Blood collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 hrs after the final dose on Day 7.

Values of AUC(0-24) are derived from individual subject plasma concentration-time data, calculated as AUC(0-8) x 3 (Day 7 last dose only). Blood collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 hrs after the final dose on Day 7.

Title Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero (Predose) Until 8 Hours After the Final Dose [AUC(0-8)]
Description Plasma concentrations of UV-4 are determined by means of high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric assay. Values of AUC(0-8) are derived from individual subject plasma concentration-time data, calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule for increasing concentrations and the logarithmic rule for decreasing concentrations. Blood collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, and 8 hrs after the first dose on Day 1; and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 hrs after the final dose on Day 7.

Title Apparent Systemic Clearance (CL/F) at Steady State
Description Plasma concentrations of UV-4 are determined by means of high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric assay. Values of CL/F are derived from individual subject plasma concentration-time data, calculated as dose (free-base equivalent) divided by AUC(0-8). Blood collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 hrs after the final dose on Day 7.

Title Apparent Volume of Distribution of UV-4 During the Terminal Phase (Vz/F) After Multiple Doses
Description Plasma concentrations of UV-4 are determined by means of high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric assay. Values of Vz/F are derived from individual subject plasma concentration-time data, calculated as CL/F divided by λz. Blood collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 hrs after the final dose on Day 7.

Limitations/Caveats

Study was terminated after Cohort 1. While no analysis was performed for change from baseline for physical exam (PE, a secondary endpoint), any change from baseline PE was reported/analyzed as an AE. AUC0-inf (secondary endpoint) was not calculated.
