Comparison of Plasma Concentration Changes Between Two Types of Tablets of FK949E Administration to Patients With Major Depressive Disorder
- Conditions
- Major Depressive Disorder
- Interventions
- Drug: FK949E
- Registration Number
- NCT01919008
- Lead Sponsor
- Astellas Pharma Inc
- Brief Summary
This study is to compare the pharmacokinetics of FK949E low dose tablets and FK949E high dose tablets in non-elderly patients with major depressive disorder. The safety of FK949E in the population was also evaluated.
- Detailed Description
The objective of the study is to compare the pharmacokinetics of FK949E low dose tablets and FK949E high dose tablets in non-elderly patients with major depressive disorder in a 2 × 2 crossover design. The safety of FK949E in the population is also evaluated.

hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
- Patients receiving treatment for hypertension, or patients with concurrent hypertension or unstable angina that may worsen with the study or may affect the study results based on the clinical judgment of the investigator/sub-investigator.
- Patients with concurrent hypotension (criterion for hypotension: a systolic blood pressure of less than 100 mmHg), or orthostatic hypotension
- Patients with a mean QTcF interval of ≥450 ms on a 12-lead ECG at the screening assessment
- Patients with the risk of torsades de pointe (e.g., those with a history of QT prolongation, those with familial long QT syndrome).
- Concurrent malabsorption syndrome, hepatic disease, or other conditions that may affect the absorption and/or metabolism of the study drug.
- Concurrent malignancy or history of cured malignancy within 5 years
- Current or past history of cerebrovascular disease or transient ischemic attack (TIA).
- Received electroconvulsive therapy within 90 days before the screening assessment
