Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Orphan Cholestatic Liver Diseases
Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis

Brief Summary

The primary objectives of the study are to assess the mass balance recovery after a single dose of carbon-14 \[14C\]-A4250 as a capsule and to provide plasma, urine and faecal samples for metabolite profiling and structural identification in healthy male subjects.

  2. Subjects who are study site employees, or immediate family members of a study site or sponsor employee
  3. Subjects who have previously been enrolled in this study
  4. History of any drug or alcohol abuse in the past 2 years
  5. Regular alcohol consumption in males >21 units per week (1 unit = ½ pint beer, 25 mL of 40% spirit or a 125 mL glass of wine)
  6. Current smokers and those who have smoked within the last 12 months. A confirmed positive urine cotinine test at screening or admission
  7. Current users of e-cigarettes and nicotine replacement products and those who have used these products within the last 12 months
  8. Radiation exposure, including that from the present study, excluding background radiation but including diagnostic x-rays and other medical exposures, exceeding 5 mSv in the last 12 months or 10 mSv in the last 5 years. No occupationally exposed worker, as defined in the Ionising Radiation Regulations 1999, shall participate in the study
  9. Subjects who do not have suitable veins for multiple venepunctures/cannulation as assessed by the investigator at screening
  10. Clinically significant abnormal biochemistry, haematology or urinalysis as judged by the investigator
  11. Confirmed positive drugs of abuse test result at screening or admission
  12. Positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C virus antibody (HCV Ab) or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) results
  13. Evidence of renal impairment at screening, as indicated by an estimated creatinine clearance (CLcr) of <90 mL/min using the Cockcroft-Gault equation
  14. History of cardiovascular, renal, hepatic, chronic respiratory or GI disease as judged by the investigator
  15. Serious adverse reaction or serious hypersensitivity to any drug or the formulation excipients
  16. Presence or history of clinically significant allergy requiring treatment, as judged by the investigator. Hayfever is allowed unless it is active
  17. Donation or loss of greater than 400 mL of blood within the previous 3 months
  18. Subjects who are taking, or have taken, any prescribed or over-the-counter drug (other than 4 g per day paracetamol) or herbal remedies in the 14 days before IMP administration. Exceptions may apply on a case by case basis, if considered not to interfere with the objectives of the study, as agreed by the PI and sponsor's medical monitor.
  19. Failure to satisfy the investigator of fitness to participate for any other reason

NameTimeMethod
Metabolite profiling of A4250 of faeces using liquid-chromatography-radio-detection with subsequent mass spectrometry as appropriateBetween pre-dose (admission to 0 hour) and post dose (ending on the morning of discharge (up to day 10 depending on if mass balance cumulative recovery >90% or <1% of dose has been collected))

Identification of the chemical structure of each metabolite accounting for greater than 10% of the dose in faeces
