| Popis: | Study Objective. To determine the absolute bioavailability of cilomilast, and assess the effects of food, dosing time, and coadministration of antacid agents on its bioavailability and pharmacokinetics in healthy volunteers. Setting. Clinical pharmacology unit. Design. Five prospective pharmacokinetic studies: one single-blind, dose-escalating, placebo-controlled trial; four open-label, randomized studies. Subjects. Ninety-six healthy adult volunteers who were nonsmokers. Intervention. In the first study, four subjects received intravenous cilomilast 1, 2, and 4 mg. In the second study, 16 subjects received oral cilomilast 15 mg or intravenous cilomilast 4 mg. In the other three studies, a total of 76 subjects were given single oral 15-mg doses; one study compared its effects in fed versus fasted subjects, one looked for differences of morning versus evening dosing, and one examined coadministration with aluminum hydroxide-magnesium hydroxide. Measurements and Main Results. After intravenous administration of cilomilast, plasma concentrations increased in an approximately dose-proportional manner; the half-life, approximately 6.5 hours, was dose independent. Cilomilast clearance and volume of distribution were small. After oral dosing, the absolute bioavailability was consistently close to 100%. Absorption was slower in fed subjects than in fasted (median 2-hr delay in time to reach maximum plasma concentration, average 39% reduction in maximum plasma concentration), but the area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (systemic availability) was unaffected. Pharmacokinetic parameters were not influenced by time of dosing or coadministration of antacid. Conclusion. The absolute bioavailability of oral cilomilast was 100%; it was not adversely affected by time of dosing or coadministration with food or antacid. |
