Lesinurad Interaction Study With Ranitidine

Overview

This is a drug-drug interaction study in healthy volunteers to evaluate the potential pharmacokinetic (PK) effects of ranitidine on lesinurad.

Full Title of Study: “A Phase 1, Open-Label, Drug-Drug Interaction Study to Evaluate the Potential Effects of Ranitidine on the Pharmacokinetics of Lesinurad in Healthy Adult Male Subjects”

Study Type

  • Study Type: Interventional
  • Study Design
    • Allocation: Randomized
    • Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment
    • Primary Purpose: Basic Science
    • Masking: None (Open Label)
  • Study Primary Completion Date: September 2013

Detailed Description

This study will evaluate the potential effect of ranitidine on the pharmacokinetics of lesinurad. An earlier study demonstrated an effect on lesinurad PK in the presence of both calcium-containing and magnesium- and aluminum-containing antacids. The current study will assess whether raising gastric pH, without the presence of these cations, affects lesinurad PK and PD under the fasted state. If an impact is seen, then the optional second cohort will be conducted under the fed state.

Interventions

  • Drug: lesinurad 400 mg
  • Drug: ranitidine 150 mg
  • Drug: lesinurad 400 mg + ranitidine 150 mg

Arms, Groups and Cohorts

  • Experimental: Sequence 1 fasted
    • Day 1: Lesinurad 400 mg once daily (qd) Day 5: Ranitidine 150 mg twice daily (bid) Day 6: Lesinurad 400 mg (qd) + ranitidine 150 mg (bid). Ranitidine dosed at -2 hours predose and 12 hours postdose of lesinurad. Day 7: Ranitidine 150 mg (bid)
  • Experimental: Sequence 2 fasted
    • Day 1: Ranitidine 150 mg (bid) Day 2: Lesinurad 400 mg (qd) + ranitidine 150 mg (bid). Ranitidine dosed at -2 hours predose and 12 hours postdose of lesinurad Day 3: Ranitidine 150 mg (bid) Day 7: Lesinurad 400 mg (qd)

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • PK profile of lesinurad from plasma and urine
    • Time Frame: Days 1 and 6 (Sequence 1) or Days 2 and 7 (Sequence 2)
    • Profile in terms of Cmax, Tmax, AUC, CL/F, t1/2 Cmax: maximum concentration; Tmax: time to reach max plasma concentration; AUC: area under the concentration-time curve; CL/F: total body clearance corrected for bioavailability; t1/2: apparent terminal half-life

Secondary Measures

  • Incidence of Adverse Events and Changes in Laboratory, Electrocardiogram, and Vital Signs Parameters
    • Time Frame: 6 weeks
  • PD profile of lesinurad from serum
    • Time Frame: Days 1 and 6 (Sequence 1) or Days 2 and 7 (Sequence 2)
    • Profile in terms of serum urate concentration
