Popis: | Objective and Design: ABT-299 is a prodrug that is converted by serum esterase to a potent platelet activating factor (PAF) antagonist (A-85783). In order to evaluate the pharmacological activity of this antagonist in man the effect of ABT-299 given to healthy volunteers on ex vivo PAF-induced β-thromboglobulin (β-TG) release in blood was assessed.¶Subjects: 37 healthy male volunteers, age 18 to 40 (mean age of 23.6 years) and free of medication, participated in the study.¶Treatment: Subjects were administered intravenously 0.8 mg, 2 mg, or 70 mg doses of ABT-299 (6–7 subjects per group) or placebo (9 subjects, pooled).¶Methods: Peripheral blood taken over 12 h after dosing was used for ex vivo β-TG release and, in the case of the 70 mg dose, measurement of plasma drug concentration. Data were compared by Student's t-test.¶Results: All three doses produced highly significant inhibition (p |
