Any condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for study participation and completion, including but not limited to: • Any reason to believe that compliance with the study requirements and completion of evaluations required for this study will not be possible • Any language barrier that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude communication and compliance with the study requirements • History or current abuse or dependence on alcohol or drugs that would interfere with adherence to study requirements • Any clinically relevant abnormal findings in the physical exam, vital signs or laboratory tests that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may put the subject at risk

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: • Compare the pharmacokinetics of Dihydroergotamine Mesylate delivered by oral inhalation (MAP0004) or intravenously (IV) (DHE 45) in smokers versus non-smokers;Secondary Objective: • Identify whether there are clinically significant differences in the tolerability of MAP0004 between smokers and non-smokers;Primary end point(s): The Primary Endpoints to be measured in this study are DHE and metabolite of DHE, namely 8’ OH DHE levels as follows: • Cmax: maximal plasma concentration • Tmax: time at which maximal plasma concentration is observed • AUC 0-48: area under the plasma concentration versus time curve, as determined by a trapezoidal method, from time zero to 48 hours post-dose. • AUC 0-inf: area under the plasma concentration versus time curve, from time zero to time infinity. • T1/2: elimination half-life of DHE parent drug from the plasma The Secondary Endpoints to be measured in this study are as follows: • Clinical AEs • Laboratory evaluations • Vital signs • ECG • FEV1
