Conditions

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Obese, Obesity, Type2Diabetes

Brief summary

This will be an exploratory, open-label study of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (HSD-1) inhibition by SPI-62 in obese subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)

Detailed description

The main objective of the study is to characterize the relationship between SPI-62 plasma concentration and adipose tissue inhibition of HSD-1 in obese subjects with T2DM.Additional objectives of the study are to characterize the relationship between adipose SPI-62 concentration and HSD-1 inhibition, to characterize the relationship between SPI-62 plasma concentration and liver inhibition of HSD-1, and to monitor the safety and tolerability of SPI-62, in obese subjects with T2DM. This will be a Phase I, open-label study in male and non-menstruating female subjects. Potential subjects will be screened to assess their eligibility to enter the study within 28 days prior to the first dose administration. Subjects will receive SPI-62 daily for up to 14 days. Subjects will also receive cortisone-d8, a mass-labeled HSD-1 substrate, by infusion during one or two confined study visits during the period of SPI-62 administration. Subjects may also receive cortisone-d8 during one to four additional confined study visits after cessation of SPI-62. Subjects will receive a follow-up call approximately 30 days after the last dose of study drug (SPI-62 or cortisone-d8). Results of population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling of data from this trial combined with those of prior trials will be reported separately from the Clinical Study Report.
