Study to Evaluate Absorption, Metabolism and Excretion of Single-dose [14C]-Saroglitazar in Healthy Male Subjects
- Registration Number
- NCT04112446
- Lead Sponsor
- Zydus Therapeutics Inc.
- Brief Summary
This will be a Phase I, open-label, nonrandomized, single-dose study in healthy male subjects.
- Detailed Description
Potential subjects will be screened to assess their eligibility to enter the study within 28 days prior to the dose administration. Subjects will be admitted into the Clinical Research Unit (CRU) on Day -1 and be confined to the CRU until at least Day 8. On Day 1, subjects will receive a single oral dose of \[14C\]-saroglitazar magnesium. Subjects will be discharged if the following discharge criteria are met: plasma radioactivity levels below the limit of quantitation for 2 consecutive collections and ≥ 90% mass balance recovery, or ≤ 1% of the total radioactive dose is recovered in combined excreta (urine and feces) in 3 consecutive 24-hour periods in which both are collected. If discharge criteria are not met by Day 8, subjects will remain in the CRU up to Day 12.

- Participation in a clinical study involving administration of an investigational drug (new chemical entity) in the past 90 days prior to dosing or 5 times the t1/2 (whichever is longer).
- Use or intend to use any medications/products known to alter drug absorption, metabolism, or elimination processes, including St. John's wort, within 30 days prior to Check-in, unless deemed acceptable by the Investigator (or designee).
- Use or intend to use any prescription medications/products within 14 days prior to Check-in, unless deemed acceptable by the Investigator (or designee).
- Use or intend to use slow-release medications/products considered to still be active within 14 days prior to Check-in, unless deemed acceptable by the Investigator (or designee).
- Use or intend to use any nonprescription medications/products including vitamins, minerals, and phytotherapeutic/herbal/plant-derived preparations within 7 days prior to Check-in, unless deemed acceptable by the Investigator (or designee).
- Use of tobacco- or nicotine-containing products within 3 months prior to Check-in, or positive cotinine at Screening or Check-in.
- Receipt of blood products within 2 months prior to Check-in.
- Donation of blood from 3 months prior to Screening, plasma from 2 weeks prior to Screening, or platelets from 6 weeks prior to Screening.
- Poor peripheral venous access.
- Have previously completed or withdrawn from this study or any other study investigating saroglitazar magnesium, and have previously received the investigational product.
- Subjects with exposure to significant diagnostic or therapeutic radiation (eg, serial X-ray, computed tomography scan, barium meal) or current employment in a job requiring radiation exposure monitoring within 12 months prior to Check-in.
- Subjects who have participated in a radiolabeled drug study where exposures are known to the Investigator within the previous 4 months prior to admission to the clinic for this study or participated in a radiolabeled drug study where exposures are not known to the Investigator within the previous 6 months prior to admission to the clinic for this study. The total 12-month exposure from this study and a maximum of 2 other previous radiolabeled studies within 4 to 12 months prior to this study will be within the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) recommended levels considered safe, per United States (US) Title 21 CFR 361.1: less than 5,000 mrem whole-body annual exposure with consideration given to the half-lives of the previous radiolabeled study drugs received.
- Subjects who, in the opinion of the Investigator (or designee), should not participate in this study.
