Reflux Oesophagitis Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group Study of the Effect of 5, 10 and 25 mg Daily of YF476 for 14 Days on 24-hour Ambulatory Gastric pH and Plasma Gastrin Concentrations in Healthy Volunteers
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.
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. ;
