Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Intravenous (IV) Infusion of MTP-131 (Bendavia™) in Healthy Adults

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy
Interventions
Drug: MTP-131 (Bendavia™)
Registration Number
NCT01115920
Lead Sponsor
Stealth BioTherapeutics Inc.
Brief Summary

This is the first study of MTP-131 (Bendavia™) in humans. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of escalating single intravenous infusion doses of MTP-131.

Detailed Description

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MTP-131 in healthy volunteers following a single intravenous infusion. The secondary objective is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of MTP-131. This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial. A total of 40 eligible subjects will be enrolled and randomized in a 3:1 active to placebo ratio for a total of 5 treatment groups of 8 volunteers. As far as is logistically possible, each treatment group will have similar numbers of male and female volunteers. After the last subject for each cohort has completed the day 3 clinical assessment and no stopping rules have been met according to Safety Review Board decision, the next cohort will commence.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Treatment emergent adverse events in treatment group versus placebo group7 days

Safety assessments including vital signs, physical exam,12-lead ECG, serum chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis will be collected the day prior to and for 7 days following study drug infusion. These parameters will be assessed for clinically significant abnormalities.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pharmacokinetics of MTP-131 including Css, Cmax, tmax, t½, AUC and dose proportionality.Pre-infusion through 32 hours post infusion

Css (plasma steady state concentration), Cmax (observed peak plasma concentration), tmax (time of observed peak), AUC0-t (area under the plasma concentration time curve from time zero to the last quantifiable timepoint), AUC0-∞ (area under the plasma concentration time curve from time zero to infinity), λz (terminal \[or elimination rate\] phase rate constant), t½ (terminal half-life), CL (plasma clearance) and Vss (volume of distribution at steady state) will be determined for MTP-131. Ae (amount excreted in the urine) and CLr (renal clearance) may also be evaluated.
