Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Compare plasma and urine PK profiles of TTX following doses of Lyophilized and Injectable Liquid TTX26 timepoints over 48 hoursPK timepoints occurred at 0,0.33,0.67,1, 1.5,2,4,6,8,10,12,14 and 24 hours after first dose on Days 1 & 2. Liquid and Lyophilized formulations will be assessed using ANOVA of the T-R ratio based on log-transformed AUC and Cmax values.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Assess the safety and tolerability of TTX following the administration of Lyophilized and Liquid TTXsignage of the ICF to Day 10Safety was assessed through the collection of AE's, concomitant medications, clinical laboratory assessments, neurological assessments and vital signs. Where summary statistics are presented, these will include n, mean, standard deviation, median, minimum, and maximum.
