OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: 31 days

Plasma concentrations of disulfiram were measured on dosing day 1 (hours 0, 2, and 6), day 2 (hour 0), and day 3 (hours 0, 2, and 6), as well as on postdosing days 4, 8, and 31. The area under the curve (AUC) levels over 72 hours was estimated.

At each visit, subjects were assessed for any new symptoms and vital signs. A complete blood count and complete metabolic panel were performed during screening, and then at Days 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 31. No evaluations were made after Day 31.
