Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Biological Effects and Preliminary Pharmacokinetics of Increasing Doses of BIIL 284 BS in Healthy Male Volunteers

October 23, 2014 updated by: Boehringer Ingelheim

A Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Biological Effects and Preliminary Pharmacokinetics of Increasing Repeated Oral Doses (9 Days Dosing) of BIIL 284 BS (Doses: 25 mg, 150 mg, 250 mg as WIF Tablets) in Healthy Male Volunteers

The objective of the present study is to obtain information about the safety and tolerability of BIIL 284 BS after repeated dosing, to find the pharmacologically active dose range by determination of the surrogate marker CD 11b (= Mac-1) and to obtain preliminary pharmacokinetic data concerning steady state and accumulation factor

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • All participants are healthy males
  • Age range from 21 to 50 years

  • Volunteers with history of orthostatic hypotension, fainting spells or blackouts
  • Volunteers with chronic or relevant acute infections
  • Volunteers with history of allergy/hypersensitivity (including drug allergy) which is deemed relevant to the trial as judged by the investigator
  • Volunteers with eosinophilia > 7 %
  • Volunteers who have taken a drug with a long half-life (>= 24 hours) within at least one month or less than ten half-lives of the respective drug before enrollment in the study
  • Volunteers who received any drugs which might influence the results of the trial the week previous to the start of the study
  • Volunteers who have participated in another study with an investigational drug within the last two months preceding this study
  • Volunteers who smoke
  • Volunteers who drink more than 60g of alcohol per day
  • Volunteers who are dependent on drugs
  • Volunteers who participated in excessive physical activities (e.g. competitive sports) within the last week before the study
  • Volunteers who have donated blood within the last 4 weeks (>= 100 mL)
