Evaluation of the Pharmacokinetics of NRL972 Following Pre-Administration of Rifampicin and Cyclosporine

March 5, 2009 updated by: Norgine

A Single-Centre, Open, Controlled, Randomised Cross-Over Study in Healthy Male and Female Volunteers to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Cholyl-Lysyl-Fluorescein (NRL972) in the Presence of Medication-Induced Changes in Cytochrome P450 or Biliary Transporter Proteins. Part A: Interaction With Rifampicin and Cyclosporine

A study in healthy volunteers to determine whether different drugs metabolised by the liver have any effects on how NRL972 is processed within the body.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

21 years to 40 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Total clearance by non-compartmental analysis. Apparent terminal disposition half-life t½ by non-compartmental analysis
Time Frame: Up to 6 hours post dose
Up to 6 hours post dose

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Non-compartmental PK-analysis based on the extensive profile (up to last quantifiable data point), the 'short' profile (over the first hour after injection), and the two-point profile based on selected data-pairs over the 1st hour after dosing
Time Frame: Up to 6 hours post dose
Up to 6 hours post dose
