A Phase 1, Open-Label, 2-Arm, Fixed-Sequence Study to Evaluate the Potential Effects of Multiple Doses of Rifampin (CYP3A4 Inducer) and Clarithromycin (CYP3A4 Inhibitor) on the Single Dose Pharmacokinetics of Deflazacort in Healthy Subjects

Detailed Description
This is an open label, parallel 2-arm, 2-period, fixed-sequence study in 58 healthy adult non-tobacco using male and female subjects divided into 2 cohorts, with 29 subjects in each arm of the study (Cohorts A and B).
Cohort A:
On Day 1 of Period 1 a single oral dose of deflazacort (Treatment A) will be administered followed by PK sampling for 24 hours for 21 desacetyl DFZ and, if data permit, deflazacort.
In Period 2, multiple oral doses of rifampin will be administered once daily (QD) for 10 consecutive days with a single oral dose of deflazacort coadministered on Day 10 (Treatment B). Pharmacokinetic sampling for 21-desacetyl-DFZ and, if data permit, deflazacort will be taken for 24 hours following deflazacort dosing on Day 10. Morning urine collection will be used to measure 6β-hydroxycortisol and free cortisol concentrations on Days 1, 4, 8, and 10 to evaluate the level of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme induction.
Cohort B:
On Day 1 of Period 1 a single oral dose of deflazacort (Treatment C) will be administered followed by PK sampling for 24 hours for 21-desacetyl-DFZ and, if data permit, deflazacort.
In Period 2, multiple oral doses of clarithromycin will be administered twice daily (BID) for 4 consecutive days with a single oral dose of deflazacort coadministered on the morning of Day 4 (Treatment D). Pharmacokinetic sampling for 21 desacetyl-DFZ and, if data permit, deflazacort will be taken for 24 hours following deflazacort dosing on Day 4.
Both Cohorts A and B:
There will be at least 24 hours between the dose in Period 1 and the first dose in Period 2.
Safety will be monitored throughout the study by repeated clinical and laboratory evaluations.
The clinic will attempt to contact subjects using their standard procedures approximately 14 days after the last study drug administration to determine if any adverse events (AEs) have occurred since the last dose of study drug. Subjects who terminate the study early will be contacted if the Principal Investigator (PI) deems necessary.
Cohort A:
Treatments A and B are described as follows:
Treatment A (Period 1): 18 mg deflazacort (3 x 6 mg tablets) at Hour 0 on Day 1, following an overnight fast.
Treatment B (Period 2): 600 mg rifampin (2 x 300 mg capsules) administered at Hour 0 after an overnight fast every 24 hours for 10 days (within ± 1 hour of dosing time on Day 1), with 18 mg deflazacort (3 x 6 mg tablets) coadministered on Day 10.
Cohort B:
Treatments C and D are described as follows:
Treatment C (Period 1): 18 mg deflazacort (3 x 6 mg tablets) at Hour 0 on Day 1, following an overnight fast.
Treatment D (Period 2): 500 mg clarithromycin (1 x 500 mg tablets) administered at Hour 0 and Hour 12, under fasting conditions, approximately every 12 hours, for 4 days (within ± 1 hour of dosing times on Day 1), with 18 mg deflazacort (3 x 6 mg tablets) coadministered at Hour 0 on the morning of Day 4. The final dose of clarithromycin will be given at Hour 12 in the evening of Day 4.
All study drugs in both cohorts will be administered orally with approximately 240 mL of water.

EXPERIMENTAL: Cohort A Deflazacort and Rifampin
Subjects will recieve one 18 mg dose of deflazacort on Day 1, Period 1 and Day 10, Period 2; cohort A. Subjects will receive once daily dosing of rifampin on Day 1, Period 2 through Day 10, Period 2.

Deflazacort, a glucocorticoid with anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects, is used in treating a variety of diseases.
Pharmacologically it is an inactive pro-drug which is metabolized completely and rapidly to the active drug 21-desacetyldeflazacort (21 desacetyl-DFZ).
The elimination of this metabolite is primarily via the urine in humans.
Its potency is approximately 70 to 90% of prednisone and 6 mg of deflazacort has approximately the same anti-inflammatory potency as 5 mg of prednisolone or prednisone.
Rifampin is a potent inducer of drug metabolism by inducing a variety of hepatic and intestinal CYP enzymes, especially CYP3A4.
Rifampin is a semi-synthetic antibiotic.

EXPERIMENTAL: Cohort B Deflazacort and Clarithromycin
Subjects will recieve one 18 mg dose of deflazacort on Day 1, Period 1 and Day 4, period 2; cohort B. Subjects will receive twice daily dosing of clarithromycin on Day 1, Period 2 through Day 4, Period 2.

Clarithromycin is a semi-synthetic macrolide antibiotic.
Clarithromycin is active in vitro against a variety of aerobic and anaerobic gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria as well as most mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) bacteria.
Additionally, the 14-OH clarithromycin metabolite also has clinically significant antimicrobial activity.
Clarithromycin is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate infections such as pharyngitis/tonsillitis.
