Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the tolerability of BIA 5-453 after six multiple rising dose regimens of BIA 5-453.

Detailed Description

Two centres, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled study of six dosage regimens of BIA 5-453 in six groups of healthy male subjects.

In each group, the study consisted of a 10-day multiple-dose period. Progression to the next dose level only occurred if the previous dose level was considered to be safe and well tolerated. An appropriate interval separated the investigation of doses to permit a timely review and evaluation of safety data (including plasma exploratory pharmacokinetics) prior to proceeding to a higher dose level.

  2. Acute disease state (e.g., nausea, vomiting, fever, diarrhoea) within 7 days before study Day1.

  3. History of drug abuse within 1 year before study Day1.

  4. History of alcoholism within 1 year before Day1. Consumption of more than 50 g of ethanol per day (12.5 cL glass of 10° [10%] wine = 12 g; 4 cL of aperitif, 42° [42%] whiskey = 17 g; 25 cL glass of 3° [3%] beer = 7.5 g; 25 cL glass of 6° [6%] beer = 15 g

  8. Positive findings of urine drug screen (eg, amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, cocaine, methadone, opiates, MDMA [3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine; ecstasy]).

    Prohibited treatments

  9. Prohibited Treatments: use of any investigational drug within 90 days or prescription drug within 30 days before investigational medical product (IMP) administration.

Percent of subjects by dose group with at least one treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAEs)through study completion, an average of 10 days

Treatment-emergent adverse events are adverse events that occurred either in the 72 hours after dosing or that was present prior to dosing but exacerbated within 72 hours after dosing.
