A Single-center, Randomized, Blinded, Placebo- and Active-controlled Crossover Study to Evaluate the Effect of Saroglitazar Magnesium on the QTc Interval in Healthy Volunteers
Full description
Primary Objective: This is a Phase 1, single-center, blinded (with respect to saroglitazar magnesium and placebo administration), randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, 4-period crossover study to investigate the effect of single therapeutic and supra-therapeutic (5×) doses of saroglitazar magnesium on the corrected QT (QTc) interval in healthy subjects in compliance with the current version of the International Council for Harmonisation E14 Guidelines.
After confirmation of eligibility, 52 subjects (at least 16 will be females) will be randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatment sequences using a William's design prior to study treatment administration on Day 1 of Period 1. Randomized subjects will receive each of the 4 study treatments across the 4 treatment periods separated by at least a 7-day washout period.

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
History of cardiovascular disease (eg, hypertension, arrhythmia, heart failure, long QT syndrome, or other conditions/diseases causing prolongation of the QT/QTc interval), in the opinion of the Investigator.
A prolongation of the QT interval corrected for HR using Fridericia's correction (QTcF) interval (eg, repeated demonstration of a QTcF interval >450 msec) before study treatment administration.
Any clinically important abnormalities in the ECG at screening, check-in (Day -1), or predose on Day 1. This includes subjects with any of the following:
A QRS and/or T-wave value that the Investigator judges to be unfavorable for consistently accurate QT measurements (eg, indistinct QRS onset, low amplitude T-wave, inverted or terminally-inverted T-wave, merged T/U-waves, indistinct T-wave offset, or prominent U-wave that affects QT measurement).
History of additional risk factors for Torsades de Pointes or the presence of a family history of short QT syndrome, long QT syndrome, sudden unexplained death at a young age (≤40 years), drowning or sudden infant death syndrome in a first degree relative (ie, biological parent, sibling, or child).
Use of medications in the 90 days before Day -1 of Period 1 that are known to prolong the QT/QTc interval.
Has used prescription drugs and other substances (eg, dietary or herbal supplements such as St John's Wort) known to be either significant enzyme inducers or enzyme inhibitors within 4 weeks of Day 1 of Period 1, or use of grapefruit or similar substances (Seville oranges or marmalade, grapefruit juice, grapefruit hybrids, pomelos, exotic citrus fruits or fruit juices) within 7 days of Day 1 of Period 1.
Has used prescription or over-the-counter medication, excluding routine vitamins but including megadose vitamin therapy (intake of 20 to 600 times the recommended daily dose), within 7 days of Day 1 of Period 1, unless agreed as not clinically relevant by the Investigator and Sponsor.
Any history of malignant disease, including solid tumors, hematologic malignancies, and including any carcinoma in situ.
Clinically significant allergies, as determined by the Investigator.
History of any clinically significant endocrine, hematologic, hepatic, immunologic, metabolic, urologic, pulmonary, neurologic, dermatologic, psychiatric, renal, or other major diseases, as determined by the Investigator.
History of unexplained syncopal or hypotensive episodes.
A positive cotinine test and positive breath test at screening or check-in (Day -1) of Period 1.
Surgery within 12 months prior to check-in (Day -1) of Period 1 (other than minor cosmetic surgery and minor dental surgery).
Subjects who have recent illness (eg, fever >38°C) within 7 days of check-in (Day -1) of Period 1.
Clinically significant abnormal hematology and serum biochemistry values, as determined by the Investigator or any of the following values at screening or check-in (Day -1) of Period 1:
Subjects with an absolute neutrophil count <2.0 × 10³/μL at screening or check-in (Day -1) of Period 1, any documented laboratory value <1.5 × 10³/μL, or any documented history of neutropenia.
Subjects with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (as defined by estimation of creatinine clearance using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula) of ≤80 mL/min/1.73m² at screening.
History of, or positive screening test for, hepatitis C infection (defined as positive for hepatitis C virus antibody), hepatitis B infection (defined as positive for hepatitis B surface antigen), or human immunodeficiency virus I or II.
Treatment with saroglitazar magnesium, or any other PPAR agonist within 90 days prior to Day -1 of Period 1.
Treatment with another investigational drug or approved therapy for investigational use within 90 days of Day -1 of Period 1 or 5 × the t1/2 (whichever is longer), or the subjects is in follow-up for any other drug, biologic, or device study.
Current active infection or serious infection (eg, pneumonia, septicemia) within the 90 days prior to Day -1 of Period 1 as determined by the Investigator.
Female subjects who are pregnant, currently breastfeeding, or attempting to conceive.
Known hypersensitivity to either saroglitazar magnesium or other PPAR agonists, and or the excipients in the saroglitazar magnesium tablet formulation.
Known hypersensitivity to moxifloxacin or other quinolones.
Blood donation in the past 90 days, or bone marrow or stem cell donor in the past 12 months prior to check-in (Day -1) of Period 1.
Any disorder that, in the Investigator's opinion, may interfere with study compliance, such as significant mental, nervous disorder or other illness. In making this assessment, the Investigator must refer to the study information provided including the Investigator's Brochure, and the prescribing information for saroglitazar magnesium.
Psychological, familial, sociological, or geographical conditions that do not permit compliance with the protocol.
Inability to be venipunctured or tolerate venous puncture.
Any condition or abnormal baseline findings that in the Investigator's judgment might increase the risk to the subject or decrease the chance of obtaining satisfactory data needed to obtain the objective of the study.
Has acute gastrointestinal symptoms at the time of screening or check-in (Day -1) of Period 1 (eg, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, heartburn).
Other unspecified reasons that, in the opinion of the Investigator or the Sponsor, make the subject unsuitable for the study.
