Study summary

Drug: 2 single oral doses of midazolam, 2 single oral doses of prednisolone , and clofutriben once daily for 16 days.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 16 healthy male and female participants will be enrolled at a single center in the US. Each participant will receive 2 single oral doses of midazolam , 2 single oral doses of prednisolone, and clofutriben once daily for 16 days. On each day that midazolam is administered, blood samples for midazolam analysis in plasma will be collected for 24 hours. On each day that prednisolone is administered, blood samples for prednisolone, prednisone, and 6β-hydroxyprednisolone analyses in plasma will be collected for 24 hours.

Blood samples for clofutriben and metabolite (AS2570469) analyses in plasma will be collected for 24 hours after the first dose and during 2 intervals at steady state. Blood samples for cortisol and cortisone analyses will be collected for 24 hours after administration of prednisolone, clofutriben, and both trial interventions together, and prior to dosing of either trial intervention. Urine will be collected for analysis of clofutriben, prednisolone, and metabolites. Feces will be collected for analysis of clofutriben and metabolites. Safety and tolerability will be assessed.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male or female participants aged 18 to 75 years of age,
  • of 18 to 35 kg/m2,
  • Taking no medications,
  • Are considered by the investigator to be in good general health.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • In the opinion of the investigator, the participant is not suitable for entry into the trial or has any to midazolam or prednisolone.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

BMI (body mass index)

Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.

What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Cmax of midazolam.

    It will be concluded that there is no relevant interaction of clofutriben on midazolam if the 90% CIs for the Cmax ratios (midazolam + clofutriben)/midazolam alone) are contained within the \[80%, 125%\] interval.

    Time frame: 24 hours from dose

  2. AUC0-t of midazolam

    : It will be concluded that there is no relevant interaction of clofutriben on midazolam if the 90% CIs for the AUC0-t (midazolam + clofutriben)/midazolam alone) are contained within the \[80%, 125%\] interval.

    Time frame: 24 hours from dose
