Gabapentin Pharmacokinetics
Brief summary
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) following administration of gabapentin in Japanese epileptic patients with renal impairment to confirm if there are any clinically relevant differences between the plasma gabapentin concentration simulated by population PK model, which was used for the evidence of the dose adjustment for the patients with renal impairment, and observed plasma gabapentin concentration.
Detailed description
Only one subject was able to be enrolled. Given enrollment challenges to identify additional appropriate subjects, discussion was held with the Japan Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) and it was agreed with the PMDA to terminate this study. The study was terminated on December 14, 2010. The study was not terminated due to any safety findings.

| Gabapentin The dosage regimens were adjusted depending on the creatinine clearance. Duration of observation was 15 days from screening if the subject had already been treated with gabapentin and 28 days from screening if the subject was treated with gabapentin for the first time.
The subject enrolled was on hemodialysis, receiving a maintenance dose of 300 mg twice daily for 15 days. | 1 |
