Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
change in urine Cu excretion as measured from:<br>- 24-h urine collections throughout the baseline (diet only, Days 1-6) and treatment periods (GC811007 or placebo, Days 7-12)[Days 1-6 - baseline measurements;<br>Days 7-12 - treatment periods];change in urine Cu excretion as measured from:<br>- 2-h urine collections during the first 10-h of the baseline (Diet only, Day 1) and treatment (GC811007 or placebo, Day 7) periods[Day 1 and Day 7];change in Cu excretion as measured from:<br>24-h fecal collections throughout the baseline (Diet only, Days 2-7) and treatment periods (GC811007 or placebo, Days 8-13)[Baseline at Days 2-7<br>Days 8-13 post-treatment]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Cumulative Cu excretion by both urine and fecal collections.[Daily measurements for 6 days (Diet only, days 1-6 = pretreatment)<br>Days 7-12 Treatment periods (GC811007 or placebo)];Dietary copper intake compared with urine and fecal excretion[Daily measurements for 6 days (Diet only, days 1-6 = pretreatment)<br>Days 7-12 Treatment periods (GC811007 or placebo)];Circulating serum Mg levels[Daily measurements for 6 days (Diet only, days 1-6 = pretreatment)<br>Days 7-12 Treatment periods (GC811007 or placebo)];Trace metal excretion = both urine and fecal excretion<br>Balance = intake compared with urine and fecal excretion[Daily measurements for 6 days (Diet only, days 1-6 = pretreatment)<br>Days 7-12 Treatment periods (GC811007 or placebo)]
