Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To compare the bioavailability and pharmacokinetic profiles of two different formulations MN-166 50mg, extended release (ER) tablets with MN-166 10mg capsules in a single-dose regimen in healthy volunteers

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Part 1:

To compare the bioavailability and pharmacokinetic profiles of two different formulations MN-166 50mg, extended release (ER) tablets with MN-166 10mg capsules in a single-dose regimen in healthy volunteers; and To choose one of the two MN-166 50mg ER tablet formulations for evaluation in Part 2.

Secondary: To determine the safety and tolerability of the two formulations of MN-166 ER tablets in a single-dose regimen in healthy volunteers.

Part 2:

To compare the bioavailability and steady-state pharmacokinetic profile of MN-166 50mg ER tablet with MN-166 10mg capsules in a multiple-dose regimen in healthy volunteers; and

Secondary: To determine the safety and tolerability of MN-166 ER tablets in a multiple-dose regimen in healthy volunteers

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

CROSSOVER

Subjects will receive the following three treatments in a crossover fashion, administered one week apart:

* ER1: Single dose (50mg) of ER Prototype 1 (one 50mg ER1 tablet),
* ER2: Single dose (50mg) of ER Prototype 2 (one 50mg ER2 tablet), and
* IR: Two doses of intermediate-release capsules (50mg PinatosĀ® capsules in two divided doses 12 hours apart, i.e., 25mg for each dose).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Extended-release formulation 1 (ER1)

50mg MN-166 tablet. This formulation is intended for once-a-day dosing, hence, the label of extended-release.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

MN-166

Intervention Type DRUG

an orally available small molecule drug approved in Japan and Korea for asthma and post-stroke complications and has been prescribed for these indications for more than 25 years

Extended-release formulation 2 (ER2)

50mg MN-166 tablet. This formulation is intended for once-a-day dosing, hence, the label of extended-release.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

MN-166

Intervention Type DRUG

an orally available small molecule drug approved in Japan and Korea for asthma and post-stroke complications and has been prescribed for these indications for more than 25 years

Intermediate-release formulation (IR)

10mg MN-166 capsule. This formulation is typically given two or three times daily, hence, the label of intermediate-release.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

MN-166

Intervention Type DRUG

an orally available small molecule drug approved in Japan and Korea for asthma and post-stroke complications and has been prescribed for these indications for more than 25 years
