About

The purpose of this study is to determine the rate and routes of excretion of OPC and the mass balance in urine, faeces and expired air.

Full description

This was a single-centre, open-label ADME study in 6 healthy male subjects. Subjects received a single dose of 100 mg OPC, containing 3.39 MBq of [14C] OPC as oral capsules.

The study consisted of an eligibility screening period within 3 weeks prior to drug administration, admission on Day -1, a treatment period involving drug administration on Day 1 followed by matrix collections for PK purposes and safety evaluations up to Day 11, discharge on Day 11, six 24-hour hospitalizations on Days 14/15, 21/22 (+/ 1 day), 28/29 (+/- 1 day), 42/43 (+/- 2 days), 56/57 (+/- 2 days) and 77/78 (+/ 3 days) for PK sample collections, and a follow up visit performed at least 14 days after discharge from the last 24-hour hospitalization or at early discontinuation.

Enrollment: 6 patients

Sex: Male

Ages: 18 to 55 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
