Abstrakt: Background: Intravenous dihydroergotamine (DHE) has well-established efficacy for the acute treatment of migraine, but its use is limited by the need for in-hospital administration and the nausea/vomiting associated with a high maximum plasma concentration (C max ). Inhalation is an alternative to intravenous dosing. The surface area of the lung allows for rapid absorption of a self-administered dose.
Objective: This study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and systemic pharmacokinetics (PK) of a dry powder formulation (PUR3100) DHE when delivered via inhalation compared to intravenous delivery.
Methods: In this double-blind, double-dummy Phase 1 study, healthy volunteers (N = 26) were randomized (1:1:1:1) to one of four groups: orally inhaled placebo plus intravenous DHE 1.0 mg or orally inhaled PUR3100 (0.5, 1.0, or 1.5 mg) plus intravenous placebo. Blood samples were drawn pre-dose and at time points post-dose over 48 h. Standard PK and safety parameters were assessed and values for C max and area under plasma concentration time curve (AUC) were used to assess comparative exposures of PUR3100 versus intravenous DHE.
Results: All doses of PUR3100 were associated with a lower incidence of nausea (21% vs. 86%), vomiting (0% vs. 29%), and headache (16% vs. 57%) compared to intravenous DHE. The PK profile of PUR3100 versus intravenous DHE was characterized by a similar mean time to C max (5 vs. 5.5 min), with reduced AUC 0-2h (1120-4320 vs. 6340), and a lower C max (3620-14,400 vs. 45,000). Compared to intravenous DHE 1.0 mg, the highest nominal PUR3100 dose (1.5 mg), which delivers a fine-particle dose of approximately 0.9 mg to the lungs, had a geometric mean ratio percentage (90% confidence interval [CI]) for C max of 32% [17.2, 59.6] and AUC 0-inf of 93% (62.9, 138.5), the latter of which was not significantly different.
Conclusions: Inhaled PUR3100 is associated with rapid systemic PK within the therapeutic window and an improved safety profile relative to intravenous DHE.
