Safety, Tolerability and PK of Single and Multiple Doses of Oxantel Pamoate Tablets
- Registration Number
- NCT06606860
- Lead Sponsor
- Swiss Tropical & Public Health Institute
- Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of oxantel pamoate tablet after administration of a single and multiple dose in healthy male and female adult volunteers.
The main questions aim to answer if oxantel pamoate is safe and well tolerated in healthy volunteers and if is it absorbed by the human body.
A single dose and a multiple dose of oxantel pamoate will be compared to placebo to see if there are any different effects.
- Detailed Description
Objectives:
Primary objective:
To investigate the safety and tolerability of oxantel pamoate after single and multiple oral administration of a chewable tablet formulation.
Secondary objective:
To investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of oxantel pamoate after single and multiple oral administration of a chewable tablet formulation.
Study Design:
This is a randomized, placebo controlled, double blind, 3-arm Phase I single centre study in a total of 45 healthy adults. The participants will be randomized into one of the following three study arms:
* Study arm 1, 20 participants: Treatment with single dose of 20 mg/kg oxantel pamoate on day 1 followed by administration of two daily doses placebo
* Study arm 2, 20 participants: Treatment with three daily dose of 20 mg/kg oxantel pamoate
* Study arm 3, 5 participants: Treatment with three daily dose of placebo PK sampling will be performed at 13 defined time points (baseline included).
The participants will be admitted to the ward one day prior to commencement of the study treatment (day -1) and will stay until one day after the last dose has been administered. They will have a final follow-up visit on day 14. The safety and tolerability will be assessed as of the first dosage up to the last follow-up visit. Biochemistry, haematology, coagulation and urinalysis will be checked at baseline, day 3 and at the final follow-up visit.

- Therapies which may impact on the interpretation of study results in the opinion of the Investigator.
- Medical, social condition, psychiatric disorder or occupational reasons that, in the judgment of the Investigator, is a contraindication to the protocol, may impair the volunteer's ability to give informed consent or effectively participate in the study, may significantly increase the risk to the volunteer because of participation in the study or may impair interpretation of the study data.
- Blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) in supine position at the screening examination outside the ranges (systolic BP range: 105-136 mm Hg systolic, diastolic BP range: 58-84 mm Hg diastolic; HR range: 56- 96 beats/min).
- Febrile illness within 1 week before the start of study treatment.
- History of relevant diseases of vital organs, of the central nervous system or other organs.
- Known renal or hepatic impairment
- Participants with a history of allergies, non-allergic drug reactions, adverse reaction to any drug, or multiple drug allergies.
- Presence or history of drug or alcohol abuse in the last 10 years.
- Surgery (e.g. stomach bypass) or medical condition that might affect absorption of study drug taken orally.
- Clinically relevant abnormal medical history, concurrent medical condition, acute or chronic illness or history of chronic illness sufficient to invalidate the volunteer's participation in the trial or make it unnecessarily hazardous.
- Relevant pathological abnormalities in the electrocardiogram (ECG) such as a second or third-degree AV block, prolongation of the QRS complex over 120 msec or of the QTcF-interval over 450 msec (corrected interval according to Fridericia's formula).
- Positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B or C.
- Positive stool or urine test for helminth infestation by Kato-Katz, urine filtration or Baermann test.
- Positive for malaria by thick blood smear (TBS).
- Presence of abnormal physical findings, or laboratory values at the screening assessment that could interfere with the objectives of the trial or the safety of the volunteer.
