The Absorption, Metabolism and Excretion of [14C]Ensartinib in Human

Phase 1

• Conditions: ALK-POSITIVE NSCLC
• Interventions: Drug: Ensartinib

• Registration Number: NCT03804541
• Lead Sponsor: Betta Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.

Brief Summary

This is a single-center, open-label, single-dose phase I study to investigate the absorption, metabolism and excretion of \[14C\] Ensartinib in healthy Chinese male subjects. The study will be conducted into two steps：Firstly, 2 subjects are enrolled in to participate in the pilot study to grope for the completion date of plasma, urine and feces sampling on the 3rd day post-dose and onwards. Then, the collection time of blood and excreta samples (urine and feces) from the subsequent 4-6 subjects will be adjusted according to the pilot study.

Detailed Description

Subjects who had signed informed consent and meet inclusion criteria and no exclusion criteria are admitted to Phase I Clinical Unit two days prior to dosing (D-2). On the morning of Day 1 before dosing, subjects will be transferred to nuclear medical ward. And after an overnight fast of at least 10 h, subjects will receive a single oral dose of 200 mg (100 μCi) of \[14C\]Ensartinib as an oral suspension. Then, after two days of the dosing, subjects will be transferred back to Phase I Clinical Unit ward and confined to this unit until blood or excreta sampling and safety monitoring at the designated time points or intervals are complete
