A Phase I, Open-Label, Single and Multiple Dose (Twice-Daily), Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of Aclidinium Bromide 400 μg Administered by Inhalation in Healthy Chinese Participants

A Phase I, single centre, open-label study to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of single and multiple twice daily doses of inhaled Aclidinium Bromide in healthy Chinese male and female subjects.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Healthy Volunteers
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Aclidinium Bromide 400 μg

Detailed Description

Screening will be performed within 21 days of dosing on Day 1. Eligible participants will be admitted to the trial center on Day -1.

Subjects will receive single dose on Day 1, twice daily regimen is from D5 to D8, and only morning dose will be given on Day 9.

During treatment period, from Day 1 through Day 11 at Visit 2, safety measurements (blood pressure, 12-lead ECG; and AE/SAE monitoring) and blood samples for PK assessments will be collected at predetermined time points.

Clinical laboratory tests (haematology, serum biochemistry and urinalysis) will be performed under fasting conditions at Day -1 at Visit 2.

A follow-up visit will be performed on Day 15.

Primary Outcome Measures
