Drug-Drug Interaction Study of Bomedemstat and Carbamazepine in Healthy Adult Participants (MK-3543-020)

Phase 1

Registration Number
NCT06596668
Lead Sponsor
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
Brief Summary

Researchers have designed a study medicine called bomedemstat (MK-3543) as a new way to treat certain rare blood diseases.

The purpose of this study is to learn what happens to bomedemstat in a person's body over time (a pharmacokinetic or PK study). Researchers will compare what happens to bomedemstat in the body when it is given alone and after multiple doses of another medicine called carbamazepine (CBZ).

Bomedemstat + CarbamazepinebomedemstatA single dose of bomedemstat will be administered On Day 1 of Period 1. There will be a washout of 7 days between bomedemstat dosing in Period 1 and the first carbamazepine (CBZ) dose in Period 2. In Period 2, CBZ will be administered twice daily (BID) for 17 consecutive days, with a single dose of bomedemstat coadministered with the morning dose on Day 14.
Bomedemstat + CarbamazepinecarbamazepineA single dose of bomedemstat will be administered On Day 1 of Period 1. There will be a washout of 7 days between bomedemstat dosing in Period 1 and the first carbamazepine (CBZ) dose in Period 2. In Period 2, CBZ will be administered twice daily (BID) for 17 consecutive days, with a single dose of bomedemstat coadministered with the morning dose on Day 14.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area under the concentration versus time curve from 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf) of bomedemstatPredose and at designated timepoints up to 168 hours postdose

AUC0-inf for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of participants who experience one or more adverse events (AEs)Up to approximately 66 days

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.

Number of participants who discontinue study treatment due to an AEUp to approximately 25 days

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.

Area under the concentration versus time curve from 0 to the time of the last quantifiable sample (AUC0-last) of bomedemstatPredose and at designated timepoints up to 168 hours postdose

AUC0-last for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined

Area under the concentration versus time curve from 0 to 24 hours after dosing (AUC0-24) of bomedemstatPredose and at designated timepoints up to 24 hours postdose

AUC0-24 for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined

Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of bomedemstatPredose and at designated timepoints up to 168 hours postdose

Cmax for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined

Maximum observed concentration 24 hours after dosing (C24) bomedemstatPredose and at designated timepoints up to 24 hours postdose

Cmax for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined

Time to maximum concentration (Tmax) of bomedemstatPredose and at designated timepoints up to 168 hours postdose

Tmax for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined

Apparent terminal half-life (t1/2) of bomedemstatPredose and at designated timepoints up to 168 hours postdose

t1/2 for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined

Apparent clearance (CL/F) of bomedemstatPredose and at designated timepoints up to 168 hours postdose

CL/F for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined

Apparent volume of distribution during terminal phase (Vz/F) of bomedemstat in plasmaPredose and at designated timepoints up to 168 hours postdose

Vz/F for bomedemstat in plasma will be determined
