简要总结
The objective of this study is to determine safety and characterize pharmacokinetics of higher doses of intravenous baclofen in healthy subjects.
Thirty-six healthy adults received a single dose of PO baclofen (10mg, 15mg or 20mg) and a 10-minute infusion of IV baclofen (7.5mg, 11.5mg or 15mg respectively) with a minimum 48-hour wash out period. Twelve subjects also received a 60-minute infusion of 15mg IV baclofen following an additional 48-hour wash out period.
The pharmacokinetic and tolerability information gained from this study will support the development of further studies to assess the use of IV baclofen to prevent or treat baclofen withdrawal syndrome.
详细描述
This randomized, open-label, dose escalation, crossover study was conducted at a contract clinical research facility. Three single doses were evaluated using three cohorts (N=12 per cohort). Study doses were as follows: cohort 1 - 7.5mg IV and 10mg PO, cohort 2 - 11.5mg IV and 15mg PO, and cohort 3 - 15mg IV and 20mg PO. The IV baclofen doses for this trial were based on a 75% bioavailability observed in a previous low dose study.16 The oral formulation of the study drug used in this trial was 10mg baclofen tablet (Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.) and is commercially available. The intravenous formulation was 2mg/mL solution manufactured by Aptuit LLC. for this study. IV infusions were administered over 10 minutes. In addition, cohort 3 received 15mg over a 60-minute infusion. There was a minimum 48-hour washout period between doses. Initially, 3 subjects received study drug at a given dose, after assessing the safety and tolerance of baclofen the additional 9 subjects received study drug.

- •Subject has a history of intolerance to IV administration of medication.
- •Subject has a known hypersensitivity to baclofen.
- •Subject has a significant history of cardiac, neurologic, psychiatric, oncologic, endocrine, metabolic, renal or hepatic disease
- •Subject has taken or used any investigational drug or device in the 30 days prior to screening.
- •Subject has taken either prescribed or over the counter medication for 48 hours prior to baclofen administration on either of the study days, other than hormonal birth control.

研究组 & 干预措施
Intravenous Baclofen
Three single doses were evaluated using three cohorts (N=12 per cohort). Subjects received single doses of baclofen: 7.5, 11.5 or 15mg 10-minute intravenous infusion administered over 10 minutes by an infusion pump and 10, 15, or 20mg taken orally with a 48-hour washout phase between oral and intravenous arms of the study. Initially, 3 subjects received study drug at a given dose, after assessing the safety and tolerance of baclofen the additional 9 subjects received study drug.
干预措施: Intravenous baclofen (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Safety assessments
时间窗: Upto 24 hours following drug administration
Blood Pressure \& Pulse: Recorded every 5 minutes immediately prior to, and during the IV infusion, then every 15 minutes for 1 hour, then every hour for 12 hours. Assessment of sedation / sleepiness: Subjects will be assessed by using the sleepiness scale prior to drug administration then every 30 minutes for four hours after drug administration. Ataxia and nystagmus: Measured using the following rating scale and definitions of ataxia and nystagmus. 0=none, 1=mild, 2=severe Ataxia: For those who are ambulatory, this will be assessed by gait. Ratings will be: mild-unsteady with tandem gait testing, but able to perform without assistance severe-unable to perform gait testing without assistance. For non-ambulatory subjects, ataxia will be assessed by finger to nose and finger pursuit maneuvers. Nystagmus: mild-present on extreme gaze; severe-present on midline gaze
