Phase: Phase 1

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: Astellas Pharma Global Development, Inc.

Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s):
Medical Director, Study Director, Affiliation: Astellas Pharma Global Development

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effect of multiple doses of isavuconazole on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of methadone after single dose administration. The secondary purpose is to assess the safety and tolerability of isavuconazole alone and in combination with methadone.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Sequential Study of the Effect of Multiple Doses of Isavuconazole on the Pharmacokinetics of a Single Dose of Methadone in Healthy Adult Subjects

Study design: Endpoint Classification: Pharmacokinetics Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label

Primary outcome: Composite of pharmacokinetics (PK) of plasma for R-methadone and S-methadone: AUClast, AUCinf, and Cmax

Secondary outcome:

Composite of pharmacokinetics (PK) of plasma for R-methadone and S-methadone : tmax,t1/2, Vz/F, and CL/F

PK of plasma isavuconazole: trough concentration (Ctrough)

Composite of PK of plasma isavuconazole: AUC during the time interval between consecutive dosing (AUCtau), Cmax, and tmax

Safety assessed by recording of adverse events, laboratory evaluations, electrocardiograms (ECGs) and vital signs
