Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of the study was to assess whether the tolerance to the effect of YF476 on gastric pH observed with repeated doses in a previous study in healthy volunteers can be avoided by using smaller doses of YF476.


Description:

YF476 is a novel, potent and selective gastrin antagonist that inhibits basal and meal-stimulated gastric acid secretion, enhances gastric emptying of a liquid meal and increases lower oesophageal sphincter pressure in animals. In a placebo- and ranitidine-controlled, crossover study in healthy volunteers, single doses of 5, 25 and 100mg of YF476 increased gastric pH; the effect was dose-dependent in magnitude and duration and compared favourably with that of ranitidine 150mg. In a placebo- and omeprazole-controlled, parallel-group study in healthy volunteers, 25 and 100mg of YF476 twice daily for 7 days, did not significantly affect gastric pH unlike omeprazole 20mg daily for 7 days. YF476 and omeprazole both increased plasma gastrin concentrations. Single and repeated doses of YF476 were well tolerated.

Eligibility Inclusion Criteria:

- Males aged 18-45 years.

- No clinically relevant abnormal findings in the clinical history or physical examination at the screening assessment which could interfere with the objectives of the study or make the subject's participation hazardous.

- No clinically relevant abnormal laboratory values at the screening evaluation (Attachment 2).

- Subjects must give their written consent to participate after reading the Information-for-Volunteers Leaflet and Consent Form, and after having the opportunity to discuss the study with the Investigator or his deputy.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Clinically relevant abnormal history or physical findings at the screening assessment, which could interfere with the objectives of the study or the safety of the subject's participation.

- Clinically relevant abnormalities of laboratory values or ECG at screening evaluation.

- Presence of acute or chronic illness or history of chronic illness sufficient to invalidate subject's participation in the study or make it unnecessarily hazardous.

- Impaired endocrine, thyroid, hepatic, respiratory or renal function, diabetes mellitus, coronary heart disease or history of any psychotic mental illness.

- Participation in other clinical studies of a new chemical entity or a prescription medicine within the previous 3 months.

- Possibility that the subject will not cooperate with the requirements of the protocol.

- Evidence of drug abuse on urine testing at study entry.

- Positive test for hepatitis B or C or HIV 1 & 2.

- High risk of hepatitis or HIV infection.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Pharmacodynamic parameters: gastric pH and plasma gastrin On Study Days 1, 7 and 14, ambulatory gastric pH recorded continuously from 0.5h before dosing until 24h after dosing. Subjects dosed between 0900-0930h. Standard meals and a drink (decaffeinated) taken at 4, 9, 13 and 22 h after dosing. Water (150mL) given at 2, 6, 8 and 11 h after dosing.
On Study Days 1, 7 and 14, blood samples (4mL) taken via a cannula for assay of plasma gastrin at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22 and 24 h after dosing.
