Brief summary

Compare the pharmacokinetics of Dihydroergotamine Mesylate (DHE) delivered by oral inhalation (MAP0004) or Intravenous (IV) DHE in smokers versus non-smokers. Identify whether there are clinically significant differences in the tolerability of MAP0004 between smokers and non-smokers.

Interventions

1.0mg MAP0004 via inhalation at Visit 2 or 3 as per protocol

DRUGIV DHE

IV DHE administered at Visit 2 or 3 as per protocol

Design outcomes

MeasureTime frameDescription
Cmax of Dihydroergotamine After MAP0004 and IV DHE Administration in Smokers Versus Non-smokers48 hoursThe maximum concentration (Cmax) is the highest concentration of a drug measured in the plasma. Plasma is the clear portion of the blood. The Cmax of Dihydroergotamine is reported in picograms per milliliter (pg/ml).
AUC(0-48) of Dihydroergotamine After MAP0004 and IV DHE Administration in Smokers and Non-smokers48 hoursThe AUC(0-48) is the area under the plot of plasma concentration of drug against time after drug administration. Dihydroergotamine AUC(0-48) is reported in picograms times hour per milliliter (pg\*h/ml).

Outcome results

Primary

AUC(0-48) of Dihydroergotamine After MAP0004 and IV DHE Administration in Smokers and Non-smokers

The AUC(0-48) is the area under the plot of plasma concentration of drug against time after drug administration. Dihydroergotamine AUC(0-48) is reported in picograms times hour per milliliter (pg\*h/ml).

Time frame: 48 hours

Population: Patients with available data at specified time points are included in the analysis population.
