A Phase 1 interventional study of Scopolamine Hydrobromide Trihydrate in Medical Countermeasures and Organophosphate Poisoning, sponsored by Battelle Memorial Institute. Terminated at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 55 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-02-19.
Sponsored by Battelle Memorial Institute · Phase 1, Interventional, and Prevention
To characterize the safety and tolerability profile of ascending doses of scopolamine hydrobromide trihydrate (Scopolamine HBT) administered by intramuscular (IM) injection. And characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ascending doses of Scopolamine HBT administered by IM injection
This is a double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, in-clinic, Phase 1, single-dose, IM, sequential dose-escalation study in healthy adults aged 18-55. Healthy volunteers will be assigned to 1 of 5 cohorts of Scopolamine HBT dosage groups: 0.005, 0.007, 0.011, 0.014, or 0.021 mg/kg, or will receive the placebo administered by IM injection to the anterior thigh. In each cohort, 6 to 9 subjects will receive active drug and 2 to 3 subjects will receive placebo. Each cohort will have at least 3 male and 3 female subjects enrolled among the first 8 subjects in the dosing group to ensure that at least 1 male subject and 1 female subject in each dosing group receive active drug. If nonextreme dose-limiting toxicities are observed in any of the cohorts, 4 additional subjects, 3 active and 1 placebo, may be added to each cohort.
209 studies on the registry are indexed under Poisoning; 26 are open to participants now.
