Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.

Condition(s) targeted: Pharmacokinetics of Isavuconazole; Pharmacokinetics of Methotrexate; Pharmacokinetics of 7-hydroxymethotrexate; Healthy Subjects

Intervention: isavuconazole (Drug); methotrexate (Drug)

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, Inc.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of multiple doses of isavuconazole on the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of methotrexate. Safety and tolerability of isavuconazole will be assessed alone and in combination with methotrexate.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Phase 1, Open- Label Study to Evaluate the Effect of Multiple Doses of Isavuconazole on the Pharmacokinetics of Methotrexate

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

Primary outcome:

Pharmacokinetics (PK) of methotrexate in plasma: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) from the time of dosing to the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast)

PK of methotrexate in plasma: AUC from the time of dosing to infinity (AUCinf)

PK of methotrexate in plasma: Maximum Concentration (Cmax)

Secondary outcome:

PK variable for isavuconazole in plasma: Trough Concentration (Ctrough)

Composite of PK variables for isavuconazole in plasma: AUCtau, Cmax and tmax

Composite of PK variables for methotrexate in plasma: t1/2, tmax, CL/F and Vz/F

Composite of PK variables for 7- hydroxymethotrexate in plasma: AUClast, AUCinf, t1/2, Cmax and tmax

Detailed description:

Subjects will check-in to the clinic on Day - 1 and remain confined through completion of the

study procedures on Day 10. A follow-up telephone call will be made on Day 16 to check on health status.
