A Phase 1, Multiple Intravenous Dose Study to Examine Safety, Tolerability, and PK of Intravenous TD-8954, a 5-HT4 Receptor Agonist, in Healthy Subjects
- Conditions
- Gastrointestinal Motility Disorder
- Interventions
- Drug: Placebo - saline
- Registration Number
- NCT01644240
- Lead Sponsor
- Theravance Biopharma
- Brief Summary
- This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of repeated IV doses of TD-8954 in healthy adults 18 to 45 years of age and healthy elderly subjects 65 to 85 years old. A healthy elderly subject population is included to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of TD-8954 IV. Pharmacodynamic effects on bowel movements will also be evaluated. Screening for all cohorts will be conducted within 21 days before the first dose.

- For Cohorts 1: adult males and females age 18 to 45 years, inclusive; for Cohorts 2 and 3, adult males and females 65 to 85 years of age, inclusive; for Cohort 4, adult males and females 18 to 45 or 65 to 85 years of age, inclusive.
- Body mass index (BMI)between 18 to 36 kg/m2, inclusive.
- Average frequency of ≥ 3 bowel movements per week.
- Persistent symptoms of functional GI disorder (such as irritable bowel syndrome, functional constipation, functional dyspepsia, or other symptom-based GI disorders unexplained by a pathologically based disorder) during the 6 months prior to screening, including a history of major surgery of the GI tract, excluding cholecystectomy and appendectomy.
- History or presence of clinically significant respiratory, GI, renal, hepatic, endocrine, hematological, neurological (including chronic headache, current or prior psychiatric disease/condition, stroke), cardiovascular, psychiatric, musculoskeletal, genitourinary, immunological, or dermatological disorders. Subjects with mild, chronic, stable disease (e.g., controlled hypertension, controlled hypercholesterolemia, non insulin-dependent diabetes, osteoarthritis) may be enrolled if the condition is well controlled and not anticipated to interfere with the objectives of the study.
