Brief summary

A Randomized, Open-Label, Single -Dose, Crossover, Phase I Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Effect of Food on the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of EC-18 after Oral Administration in Healthy Volunteers

Detailed description

In vitro and in vivo efficacy studies and clinical trials have shown that EC-18 has a mode of action of improving neutropenia by promoting neutrophil production from hematopoietic stem cells and at the same time, efficiently controlling STAT6/Complement 3(C 3), suggesting its potential to be developed as an orally administered new drug for treatment of neutropenia resulting from decreased neutrophils caused by administration of an anticancer agent. This study is a randomized, open-Label, single -dose, crossover, phase I clinical trial to evaluate the effect of food on the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of EC-18 after oral administration in healthy volunteers

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENThigh-fat diet

This trial is conducted as a randomized, open-label, single -dose, crossover, phase I to evaluate the effect of food on the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of EC-18. EC-18 is given at an oral, once daily in condition of empty stomach and a high fat diet(900\ 1,000 kcal, contains 50\ 60%lipid).This trial is divided into Part 1(1,000mg dose) and Part 2(500mg dose and 2,000mg dose), 12 subjects are included in each dose and cross-over period is 7 days. After Part 1 study, If primary PK parameters of EC-18 is affected by food and AEs meeting study discontinuation criteria are not reported, Part 2 will proceed in consecutive order with registering new subjects.
