Study Information
Simbec-Orion Clinical Pharmacology will soon be running a study to investigate the study drug, DT-101. The main objectives of the study are as follows; to determine the safety and tolerability of DT-101 when it is administered as a single dose on two occasions; once in a fasted state (without food) and once in a fed state (following a high-fat, high-calorie meal). To investigate the concentration of DT-101 in the blood, how this changes over a period of time and to evaluate whether there are differences in the concentrations when DT-101 is administered in a fasted state and fed state known as food effect.
Blood samples will be taken at set time points throughout the study in order to measure the concentration of DT-101 in the blood. In the context of the whole study, we will evaluate the results from each treatment period to determine if there are any significant differences in the safety profile of DT-101 or the concentration of DT-101 in the blood as a result of taking DT-101 with or without food. The purpose of the data generated in this study is to provide further information and guidance to support the study Sponsor in the development of the study drug, DT-101.
DT-101 is being developed as a potential treatment for a range of disorders associated with the central nervous system, including major depressive disorder – MDD (the main focus for this study). Currently, there are limited treatment options available for this condition which are considered long term and effective and there are no known cures. Therefore, there is an unmet need to develop potential new treatments which could be more effective.
The study will consist of 15 participants with each participant required to complete both treatment periods. Across the two treatment periods, each participant will receive:
- a single dose of DT-101 (18 milligrams (mg)) in the form of an oral capsule following an overnight fast,
- a single dose of DT-101 (18 mg) in the form of an oral capsule following a high-fat, high-calorie meal.
Further Information
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the study objectives when DT-101 is given as a single dose on two occasions in the presence and absence of food across two treatment periods.
