Filter by:This is a single center, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, 2-way crossover drug-drug interaction (DDI) study to assess the effect of laquinimod on the PK and PD of ethinylestradiol (EE) and levonorgestrel (LNG) a commonly used oral contraceptive combination.
The purpose of this study is to compare the pharmacodynamic effect of clopidogrel on the platelet inhibition and the pharmacokinetic profiles of clopidogrel carboxylic acid metabolite between generic and reference clopidogrel products in Thai healthy volunteers
This study investigates how ASP3652 is taken up, broken down, and distributed through the body and excreted in individuals of different races. The study also investigates levels of biochemical markers in the bloodstream, and determines how safe the study drug is and how well it is tolerated after dosing. A further aim is to look at how the processes of metabolism, distribution and excretion of the study drug are possibly altered by the daily diet of the volunteers taking part.
A study of ACT-462206 to evaluate the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic of ascending single doses of ACT-462206, a novel dual orexin receptor antagonist in healthy male subjects.
Various studies have reported cardioprotective effects of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists in the setting of an acute myocardial infarction. In a recent animal study, the protective effect of MR antagonists on infarct size was completely abolished in CD73 knock-out and adenosine A2b receptor knock-out mice, and by co-administration of adenosine receptor antagonists in rats. These findings suggest that extracellular formation of adenosine is crucial for this protective effect and that MR antagonists stimulate extracellular adenosine formation by the enzyme CD73. To investigate whether eplerenone promotes adenosine receptor stimulation by activating CD73, the investigators will measure forearm blood flow in response to various dosages of dipyridamole with the use of plethysmography. Dipyridamole increases the extracellular endogenous adenosine concentration by inhibition of the ENT transporter and induces local vasodilation. Therefore, the vasodilator effect of dipyridamole accurately reflects extracellular adenosine formation by the CD73 enzyme.
The objectives of this study were (a) to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and to evaluate and compare the pharmacodynamics of ilaprazole and esomeprazole following a single dose (Day 1) and once daily (QD) administration for 5 consecutive days each of 10-mg, 20-mg, and 40-mg ilaprazole tablets and 40-mg esomeprazole tablets; (b) to evaluate the safety of 10-mg, 20-mg, and 40-mg ilaprazole tablets following QD oral administration for 5 consecutive days; and (c) to characterize the plasma gastrin concentration profile on Day 1 and Day 5 following QD oral administration of 10-mg, 20-mg, and 40-mg ilaprazole and 40-mg esomeprazole tablets for 5 consecutive days.
The purpose of this study is to explore the safety (including the effect on cardiac intervals), tolerability, the effects on the Central Nervous System (CNS), as well as the CNS side effect profile of single ascending doses of ASP3652 in healthy, Caucasian male and female subjects.
To investigate the safety, tolerability and anti-tumour activity of AZD5363, as monotherapy, in patients with metastatic Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer. AZD5363 will be investigated in patients who have progressed after chemotherapy (Part A) and in patients who have progressed before receiving chemotherapy (Part B). Recruitment into Part A, Group 1 has been suspended. A new design for this group is currently being evaluated. Part A, group 2 patients (progressed after 1 or more 2nd generational anti-hormonal therapies) will receive AZD5363 480mg bid intermittently (4 days on/3days off). Part B will only start if there is evidence of anti-tumour activity along with AZD5363 having an acceptable safety profile in Part A. Part B will be conducted in pre-chemotherapy patients on a dose and schedule selected from Part A.
The study aims to investigate the effect of YM150 and to compare gender and ethnic differences in healthy Caucasian and Japanese male and female subjects.
The objective of this study is to explore safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of ASP015K in healthy volunteers.
