Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of three different strengths of an investigational product dosed twice a day over 7 days in healthy subjects.
The purpose of this trial is to examine the short-term effects of Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH, tesamorelin) administration in healthy men. We hypothesize that GHRH will increase GH pulse height and will not affect insulin sensitivity.
Transfusion of red blood cells is often used in critically ill patients with low red blood cell counts to prevent disease progression and death. Recent studies suggest that the use of "aged" versus "fresh" red blood cells are associated with worse clinical outcomes. There is evidence that red blood cells work with the cells lining our blood vessels to produce a variety of substances that normally cause arteries to relax and increase blood supply. Two of these substances are called nitric oxide (NO) and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF). The investigators are trying to determine the nature of these substances in human beings when they are transfused "aged" versus "fresh" red blood cells. It is their thought that "aged" red blood cells have less of the substances (NO and EDHF) that naturally relax our arteries and further changes the blood supply. One way to determine this is to transfuse a subject's own "aged" and "fresh" red blood cells and inject substances such as L-NMMA (L-NG monomethyl arginine) and TEA (tetraethylammonium chloride), which block the production of NO and EDHF respectively, and then, study what happens to the blood flow. There is evidence that red blood cells produce NO, which normally causes arteries to relax and increase blood supply. The investigators will try to determine the nature of NO in red blood cells and whether the amount of this substance is altered because of different blood processing and storage techniques. It is their thought that "aged" red blood cells have less NO that naturally relaxes our arteries and further changes the blood supply. This study is designed to determine the most ideal way of storing and processing blood.
The study will try, in 2 separate parts, each using 12 research subjects, to see how a new form of the pill CE 224,535 gets released into the bloodstream and whether that is affected by food. In each part, subjects will switch among 4 treatment periods to take either different forms of the pill(s) or the same form either after fasting or eating a meal. The second part will only happen depending on whether the sponsor believes it is needed and will use separate subject than the first part.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relative drug concentrations achieved with different formulations of GSK1838262 in healthy volunteers.
Title: Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Dose-Escalation Phase I Study of the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of a Single Intravenous Dose of ETI-204 (AnthimTM) Population: This study will determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of a single iv dose of ETI-204 in subjects 18 to 50 years of age. Three cohorts will be studied sequentially: subjects receiving 120 mg, 240 mg and 360 mg of ETI-204. The study will be randomized, double-blind, and stratified by gender. Each cohort will contain 15 subjects (including at least four females), twelve who will receive ETI-204 and three who will receive placebo. Study Objectives: To determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ETI-204 following a single intravenous administration.
Mass balance study to determine the recovery of a single radiolabelled dose of GSK1349572 from urine and feces
This phase I Healthy Volunteer study will evaluate the pressure interface between the devices (a compression device and Profore®) and the skin, using the PicoPress(TM) pressure transducer at specified time intervals in three distinct locations on the leg, in both the sitting and standing position. It will also assess the variability of interface pressure following application under each test device for each subject over a period of three days (three separate applications).
Evaluation of bacteria in the mouth and throat before study drug ( Levofloxacin, floroquinolone antibiotic and Azithromycin, a macrolide antibiotic) is started and then periodically for 6 weeks after the last dose of study drug is taken
The purpose of this study is to determine pharmacokinetic parameters of ORM-12741 in healthy volunteers.
