Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential pharmacokinetic (what the body does to the drug) interactions between multiple doses of phenytoin 200 mg every 12 hours or carbamazepine 200 mg every 12 hours and telaprevir 750 mg every 8 hours at steady-state (constant concentration of medication in the blood) in healthy participants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the single-dose pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence of darunavir 800 mg when administered as a fixed dose combination relative to 2 x 400 mg tablets of the commercial tablet formulation, in the presence of 150 mg cobicistat, (under fed and fasted conditions) in healthy participants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-inflammatory properties of JNJ-26528398 using an intravenous (IV) endotoxin-induced model of acute, transient inflammation.
The primary objective of this study is to learn about the relative bioavailability (the extent to which the drug becomes available to the body) and pharmacokinetics (blood levels) of rivaroxaban in healthy participants after receiving a 20 mg rivaroxaban tablet orally as a whole tablet, crushed and mixed in applesauce, and as a suspension through a Naso-gastric (NG) tube. The relative bioavailability of rivaroxaban may be different when given as a crushed tablet compared with an intact (whole) tablet and when given via an NG tube. The safety and tolerability of rivaroxaban will also be assessed.
This is a 2-part study. Part 1 is to determine the safety and tolerability in healthy participants of increasing daily doses of LY2484595 for 14 days to achieve a blood level of LY2484595 much higher than what is needed for therapy. The amount of study drug that reaches the bloodstream and the time it takes for the body to get rid of it will be determined. The effect of the study drug on factors in the blood related to cholesterol will be measured. Part 2 is to determine how ketoconazole affects how much of the study drug, LY2484595, gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes to get rid of it. Information about any side effects that may occur will also be collected.
This is a single-centre, placebo-controlled, two-part study in healthy participants. Part A will be a single dose, single period, placebo-controlled pilot study to explore the safety, tolerability, absorption and pharmacodynamic [effect of drug on a biological marker-phospho-S6 (pS6) levels in skin biopsies] of a single dose of 25 milligrams (mg) LY2584702 Reference formulation (RF). Part B is a single dose, placebo-controlled, 4-period crossover study to primarily evaluate the absorption of the Test Formulation (TF) in comparison with the (RF) of LY2584702.
Aim of this trial is to investigate the expression and localisation of different amino acid transporters and their regulatory proteins derived from the regulatory proteins of the local renin angiotensin system (RAS) in the intestine. This is investigated on one hand in patients who do not take any drugs interfering with RAS. On the other hand expression analysis is done in patients taking daily RAS-active drugs, like ACE inhibitors or sartanes. After obtaining informed consent of patients attending the hospital for clarification of gastrointestinal symptoms by gastroduodenoscopy or colonoscopy, 2 biopsies (in addition to biopsies needed for clinical diagnostics) will be taken from each duodenum, jejunum, ileum and descending colon. Biopsies are investigated anonymously at the Institute of Physiology of the University of Zurich. The mRNA content of amino acid transporters and regulatory proteins, respectively, in the biopsies is analyzed by quantitative PCR. Transport proteins are in addition analyzed with immunohistochemistry. Furthermore amino acid concentration in plasma and urine samples are analyzed by HPLC. From plasma and serum samples RAS parameters like renin, aldosterone, ACE and angiotensin(1-7) are measured.
This study conducted in healthy male and female adult participants compared the bioavailability and relative safety and tolerance of a single dose of ondansetron 8 mg Orally Dissolving Filmstrip (ODFS) administered under fasting conditions with and without water with that of a single dose of Zofran Orally Dissolving Tablets (ODT®) containing ondansetron 8 mg administered under fasting conditions without water.
Previous research studies have shown that depression is associated with changes in structure and activity in different parts of the brain and that antidepressant medication can affect brain activity in different parts of the brain in individuals suffering from depression. The primary purpose of the study is to find out more about how the antidepressant medication duloxetine affects brain activity and structure in individuals with depression.
Diseases characterized by abnormal low and high body weight are common in the community and are associated with significant morbidity, mortality and health care related costs. Genetic, dietary, social and psychologic factors all play an important part in these conditions; however the central role of gastrointestinal (GI) function and the control of nutrient delivery to the small bowel has not been well described in health or disease. We propose that the GI response to feeding varies inversely with body weight. This hypothesis predicts that as body weight increases, the response to a given meal decreases in terms of motility, neurohormonal feedback, sensation and satiety. This provides an attractive explanation for why thin individuals stop eating after a small amount of food (i.e. limited gastric relaxation, rapid gastric emptying, powerful nutrient feedback with early satiety)and, conversely, why obese patients continue to eat even after nutritional requirements have been met (i.e. large gastric relaxation, slow gastric emptying, weak nutrient feedback with delayed satiety). This project will apply MRI and Breath Tests to assess GI motility, hormonal feedback, visceral sensation and satiety in patients with pathologically low (anorexia nervosa) and high (morbid obesity) body weight and in healthy, normal weight controls. Participants will include: Group A: normal weight, healthy volunteers (n=24: BMI: 18.5-24.9 kg/m2) Group B: patients with anorexia nervosa (DSMIV criteria and BMI: <16 kg/m2) B1: anorexia restricting type (n=12-20 over 2 years) and B2: anorexia bulimia type (n=20 over 2 years) Group C: patients with morbid obesity (BMI: 30-40 kg/m2) C1: obese (n=20 over 2 years) and C2: obese with DM type II (n=20 over 2 years). Two studies will be performed 1. Cross-sectional study: The effects of a test meal on GI motility, hormonal feedback, visceral sensation and satiety in healthy controls and in patients with anorexia and obesity 2. Longitudinal study: The effects of dietary treatment (i.e. weight change) on GI motility, hormonal feedback, visceral sensation and satiety in patients with anorexia and obesity
