Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety Study of Subcutaneously Administered PL-3994 in Subjects With Controlled Hypertension (NCT NCT00686803)

NCT ID: NCT00686803

Last Updated: 2013-07-19

Results Overview

The pharmacokinetic profile parameters for PL-3994 were calculated using a non compartmental approach. •Maximum concentration (Cmax) The subject numbers below are the evaluable subjects only. The Evaluable Subjects population consisted of subjects who received study drug and who had no major protocol deviations that would have excluded the subject from analysis, and for whom calculations of PK parameters were possible.

Initiation Date: 28 April 2008 Completion Date: 21 July 2008 Cohort 1: 6 subjects: PL-3994 0.3 µg/kg; 1 subject Placebo Cohort 2: 6 subjects: PL-3994 0.1 µg/kg; 1 subject Placebo Cohort 3: 6 subjects: PL-3994 0.3 µg/kg; 1 subject Placebo; Study stopped after Cohort 3.

Some results (i.e.Pharmacodynamic results) may include analyses only for the Evaluable Subjects population.The Evaluable Subjects population consisted of subjects who received study drug and who had no major protocol deviations that would have excluded the subject from analysis, and for whom calculations of PK or PD parameters were possible.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 24 hours

Pharmacodynamic parameters were calculated from the baseline-adjusted plasma cGMP level-time data using WinNonlin® 5.0.1. Actual sample times were used in the calculations. Baseline was the pre-dose levels of plasma cGMP at Visit 2 (Day 1): Emax The patient numbers below represent the evaluable subjects only. The Evaluable Subjects population consisted of subjects who received study drug and who had no major protocol deviations that would have excluded the subject from analysis, and for whom calculations of PD parameters were possible.
