Open-label Comparison of 24hr Gastric pH on Days 1, 2, 7 With Once-daily Administration of Lavoltidine 40 mg.

May 31, 2012 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

An Open-Label Study of the Development of Pharmacodynamic Tolerance to 7-days Administration of Lavoltidine 40mg

Current treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)confirms an unmet need in patients, based on slow onset of action and an inability to provide 24-hour gastric acid suppression. Clinical data on lavoltidine demonstrates a rapid onset of action, high potency, and prolonged duration of effect after single dose. Since tolerance to the class of compounds to which lavoltidine belongs may be dose dependent, the current study is designed to determine if 40mg lavoltdine given for 7days develops tolerance.
