Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

This is an open-label, randomized, single-dose per period, four-period, crossover study to evaluate relative bioavailability of decitabine in three newly formulated THU and decitabine combination capsules in comparison to 3 capsules of THU followed 1 hour later by 3 capsules of decitabine.

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.

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

18 years to 50 years (ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

Male

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History or presence of clinically significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematologic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, dermatologic, neurologic, oncologic, or psychiatric disease or any other condition, including the presence of laboratory abnormalities, that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would jeopardize the safety of the subject or the validity of the study results.
  • Any serious medical condition, clinically significant laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the subject from signing the ICF.
  • Recent history within 3 years of any clinically significant neurological, gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, psychological, pulmonary, metabolic, endocrine, hematological or other major disorders.
  • Used any prescribed systemic or topical medication within 30 days of the first dose administration.
  • Used any non-prescribed systemic (including herbal medicines, e.g. St. John's Wort) or topical medication within 7 days of the first dose administration (with the exception of vitamin/mineral supplements)
  • Subjects who have any surgical or medical conditions possibly affecting drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME).
  • Exposed to an investigational drug (new chemical entity) within 90 days preceding the first dose administration or currently enrolled in any investigational trials.
  • Donated blood or plasma within 8 weeks preceding the first dose administration.
  • History of multiple drug allergies.
  • Any clinically significant allergic disease (excluding nonactive hay fever).
  • History of drug abuse of at least 2 years prior to dosing, or positive drug screening test due to illicit drugs.
  • History of alcohol abuse of at least 2 years prior to dosing, or positive alcohol screen.
  • Smokers or users of other tobacco products (e.g., chewing tobacco, or those using nicotine-containing products (i.e., patches, gum) in the 3 months prior to screening, or positive urine cotinine test.
  • Known to have serum hepatitis or known to be a carrier of the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis C antibody, or tests positive for HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) antibodies at screening.
