研究概览
简要总结
Background:
Insomnia is associated with difficulty sleeping. The drug zolpidem is widely prescribed for insomnia. Women have reported worse effects from the drug than men. Women have higher amounts of zolpidem in their body that may persist after waking. Drug exposure may also depend on male hormones that change during prostate cancer therapy. Researchers want to see if these findings can provide a more-accurate dose to healthy women and men with prostate cancer.
Objective:
To study amounts of zolpidem in men who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer before they are castrated and after, and to compare these results to healthy women s.
Eligibility:
Men ages 18 and older who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer who are planning to receive androgen deprivation therapy (ADT)
Healthy women age 18 and older
Design:
Participants will be screened with:
Blood tests
Physical exam
Electrocardiogram (EKG) heart test
Male participants will confirm their prostate cancer. This can be done with a tumor sample tissue from a previous surgery or a report from a doctor.
Female participants may have a pregnancy test.
Participants will be admitted to the clinic in the evening and stay overnight. They will:
Take a 5 mg zolpidem tablet on an empty stomach around 11 p.m.
Have blood drawn multiple times
Have physical exams and EKGs
Answer questions about their symptoms and medicines they are taking
Male participants will have ADT as part of their standard cancer treatment. After that, the testosterone in their blood will be measured. They will repeat the overnight clinic stay.
Participants will get a follow-up phone call after each stay.
详细描述
Background:
- Zolpidem is currently approved for the treatment of patients with insomnia.
- Women reported experiencing an increased incidence of adverse effects than men, resulting in a reduction of the recommended dose of zolpidem for women.
- Zolpidem metabolism is affected by both age and gender; the recommended dose for the elderly and female populations is 5mg daily.
- Subsequent studies have shown that women experience greater exposure to zolpidem than men, potentially due to androgen-driven differences in enzyme expression.
- A preclinical study showed that castrated male rats exhibited zolpidem pharmacokinetics similar to that of female rats, providing further evidence to suggest that zolpidem pharmacokinetics are androgen-driven.
Objectives:
-To evaluate the effect of castration on the pharmacokinetics of a single 5-mg dose of zolpidem in participants with prostate cancer undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (previous post-castration therapy) compared to normal healthy females.

- •platelets greater than or equal to 150,000/mcL
- •total bilirubin within normal institutional limits
- •Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) less than or equal to institutional upper limit of normal
- •creatinine within normal institutional limits OR creatinine clearance greater than or equal to 60 mL/min/1.73 m^2 for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal (calculated via Cockcroft-Gault equation)
- •Patients must not have other concurrent malignancies (within the past 2 years with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer and Rai Stage 0 chronic lymphocytic leukemia), in situ carcinoma of any site, or life-threatening illnesses, including untreated infection (must be at least 1 week off intravenous antibiotic therapy before beginning zolpidem).
- •Ability of subject to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
- •Ability to swallow study medication.
- •Willingness to travel to National Institutes of Health (NIH) for follow-up visits.
- •Men age greater than or equal to 18 years of age. Children are excluded because prostate cancer is not common in pediatric populations.
- •INCLUSION CRITERIA - FOR NORMAL HEALTHY FEMALE COHORT:
- •Females age greater than or equal to 18 years of age
- •Good health conditions or without significant diseases, according to best medical judgement.
- •If breastfeeding, must be willing to discard breastmilk for 24 hours following zolpidem.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Area Under the Plasma Concentration 0-8Hour (Hr)(AUC0-8hr) Values in Males Between Pre-Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) and Post-ADT
时间窗: pre-dose and 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, and 8-hours post-dose.
AUC is a measure of the serum concentration of Zolpidem over time. It is used to characterize drug absorption. The AUC values will be compared between the time points for males to see if the AUC increases significantly. Pre-ADT males will be subtracted from the paired values in males once they are post-ADT and tested for a difference using a paired t-test with a two-sided 0.05 significance level, or a Wilcoxon signed rank test if the paired differences are not normally distributed.
