Brief summary

Phase II systemic bioavailability crossover study to measure the exposure of Col-118 topical 0.18 % Facial Gel and Brimonidine Ophthalmic Solution 0.2%

Detailed description

A double-blind, randomized, 2-way crossover, safety, pharmacokinetic/-dynamic (PK/PD) study of 0.18% COL-118 facial gel and 0.2% brimonidine ophthalmic solution administered in male and female patients with moderate to severe erythematous rosacea. Twenty male and female subjects with moderate to severe erythematous rosacea will be randomized into 2 groups of 10 subjects. Each group will be randomized to receive 2 treatments (Treatments A and B, in Sequence 1: A/B or Sequence 2: B/A), as follows: Treatment A: One 1-g application of 0.18% COL-118 facial gel (1.8 mg brimonidine) administered topically plus one drop of Advanced Eye Relief™ in each eye, once in the morning. 1 g of 0.18% COL-118 facial gel is reapplied once after four hours; Treatment B: One 1-g application of COL-118 facial gel vehicle (0.0 mg brimonidine tartrate) administered topically plus one drop of 0.2% brimonidine ophthalmic solution (0.1 mg brimonidine tartrate/drop) in each eye. Four hours after the first application 1-g of COL-118 facial gel vehicle (0.0 mg brimonidine) is administered topically. There will be at least a 1-day washout between dose administrations (Period 1 and Period 2). Blood samples for PK analysis of brimonidine levels will be collected at the following time points during Period 1 and Period 2: 0 Hour (prior to dose) and at 1, 2, 3, 4 (prior to 2nd dose), 5, 6, 7, and 8 hours post-dose.

Interventions

DRUG0.18% COL-118 facial gel (1.8 mg brimonidine)

One 1-g application of 0.18% COL-118 facial gel (1.8 mg brimonidine) administered topically plus one drop of Advanced Eye Relief™ in each eye, once in the morning. 1 g of 0.18% COL-118 facial gel is reapplied once after 4 hours

DRUG0.2% brimonidine ophthalmic solution (0.1 mg brimonidine tartrate/drop)

One 1-g application of COL-118 facial gel vehicle (0.0 mg brimonidine tartrate) topically plus one drop of 0.2% brimonidine ophthalmic solution (0.1 mg brimonidine tartrate/drop) in each eye. Four hours after the first application 1-g of COL-118 facial gel vehicle (0.0 mg brimonidine) is administered topically.

DRUGAdvanced Eye Relief

One 1-g application of 0.18% COL-118 facial gel (1.8 mg brimonidine) administered topically plus one drop of Advanced Eye Relief™ in each eye, once in the morning. 1 g of 0.18% COL-118 facial gel is reapplied once after 4 hours

DRUGCOL-118 facial gel vehicle

One 1-g application of COL-118 facial gel vehicle (0.0 mg brimonidine tartrate) administered topically plus one drop of 0.2% brimonidine ophthalmic solution (0.1 mg brimonidine tartrate/drop) in each eye. Four hours after the first application 1-g of COL-118 facial gel vehicle (0.0 mg brimonidine) is administered topically

Thus, no PK analysis could be performed for 0.18% COL-118 facial gel. After ocular administration of 0.2% brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution, quantifiable plasma concentrations of brimonidine were observed in 11 of the 18 subjects who received the brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution. Brimonidine rapidly appeared in plasma The mean Cmax was not calculated because values were not quantifiable for 7 of 18 subjects The mean AUC0-t also was not calculated.
