Effect of P-glycoprotein Inhibition on Lenalidomide Pharmacokinetics in Healthy Males

Registration Number
NCT01712828
Lead Sponsor
Celgene
Brief Summary

To find out if the blood level of lenalidomide can be changed when a drug that prevents p-glycoprotein (a protein naturally present in the body that helps carry substances across cell membranes that is found in many parts of the body like the intestines, liver, and kidneys) from working (called a P-gp inhibitor) when taken together with lenalidomide. The study is also trying to find out if blood level of temsirolimus can be changed when a subject takes lenalidomide together with temsirolimus.

Detailed Description

This will be a single-center, open label, 2-part study. Part 1 will be a two-period, fixed-sequence crossover study with lenalidomide alone in Period 1, followed by lenalidomide in combination with quinidine in Period 2. Part 2 will be a fixed-sequence, three-period, crossover study with lenalidomide alone in Period 1, temsirolimus (via direct intravenous infusion) in Period 2, and lenalidomide in combination with temsirolimus (via direct intravenous infusion) in Period 3. Diphenhydramine (given via intravenous injection) will be administered shortly before temsirolimus in order to decrease the chances of an allergic reaction to temsirolimus. Part 1 and Part 2 will be conducted at the same time. Subjects can only participate in either Part 1 or Part 2.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Any condition which places the subject at unacceptable risk if he were to participate in the study, or confounds the ability to interpret data from the study.
  • Used any prescribed systemic or topical medication within 30 days of the first dose administration, unless Sponsor agreement is obtained.
  • Used any non-prescribed systemic or topical medication (including vitamin/mineral supplements, and herbal medicines) within 14 days of the first dose administration, unless Sponsor agreement is obtained.

  • History of drug abuse (as defined by the current version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual within 2 years before dosing, or positive drug screening test reflecting consumption of illicit drugs.
  • History of alcohol abuse (as defined by the current version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual) within 2 years before dosing, or positive alcohol screen.
