Assessment of PFT, Safety, and PK of Zileuton Injection in Asthma Patients

March 19, 2008 updated by: Critical Therapeutics

Phase 2 Study of the Assessment of Pulmonary Function, Safety, Tolerability, and PK of Zileuton Injection in Patients With Chronic Stable Asthma

A single intravenous injection of zileuton (150 or 300 mg) will be administered to patients with stable asthma. The goals will be to determine if zileuton i.v. can produce a rapid increase in FEV1/PEFR and when this effect can be seen. The safety of this route of administration of zileuton will also be studied. PK will be obtained in a population based method.
