What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mass balance of [14C]-EP262

    Assessed by the total recovery of radioactivity from urine and feces

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 to End of Study or Early Termination (Approximately 1 month)

  2. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of EP262 and [14C]

    Assessed by the concentration of EP262 in plasma and \[14C\] in whole blood, plasma, urine, and feces

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 to End of Study or Early Termination (Approximately 1 month)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Metabolite profile of EP262

    Assessed by the concentration of EP262 metabolites in plasma, urine, and feces

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 to End of Study or Early Termination (Approximately 1 month)

  2. Safety and tolerability of [14C]-EP262

    Assessed by the incidence of treatment emergent adverse events, clinical laboratory evaluations, vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiogram, and physical examination findings

    Time frame: Measured from Day 1 to End of Study or Early Termination (Approximately 1 month)
