Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Brief summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic of TAS-205 in patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Detailed description

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is the most common fatal genetic disorder diagnosed in childhood, affecting approximately 1 in every 3500 lives male births. DMD patients suffer from a relentless decline in muscle strength that impairs the ability of walking and breathing, resulting in their lives with wheelchairs and loss of upper body function. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic of TAS-205 after single and multiple doses in DMD patients. It is also evaluated if TAS-205 affects the urinary excretion of pharmacodynamic (PD) marker in DMD patients.

Interventions

* Single-dose phase: 3 steps (low dose, middle dose or high dose group), 5 patients/step, single oral administration after meals * Multiple-dose phase: 3 steps (low dose, middle dose or high dose group), 5 patients/step (the same patients between single- and multiple-dose phases), repeated oral administration for 7 days, BID after meals

DRUGPlacebo

* Single-dose phase: 3steps (low dose, middle dose or high dose group), 2 patients/step, single oral administration after meals * Multiple-dose phase: 3 steps (low dose, middle dose or high dose group), 2 patients/step (the same patients between single- and multiple-dose phases), repeated oral administration for 7 days, BID after meals

Participant flow

Pre-assignment details

Two participants in 21 participants of Single-dose phase discontinued after Single-dose phase. So, 19 participants moved to Multiple-dose phase. And new two participants enrolled in Multiple-dose phase.
