Two investigations aimed to define the pharmacokinetic profile of a modified-release preparation of zaleplon (SKP-1041).
Protocol SOM001 was a 5-way crossover, double-blind, randomized trial comparing three novel modified-release formulations of zaleplon 15 mg (SKP-1041A, SKP-1041B, SKP-1041C) to placebo and immediate-release zaleplon 10 mg. Protocol SOM002 was a randomized, crossover, open-label trial to compare the pharmacokinetics of SKP-1041B after day and night administration. In SOM001, study drug was administered at 9:00 a.m. (fasted); blood samples were obtained beginning 1 h predose through 12 h postdose. In study SOM002, study drug was administered at 9:00 a.m. or 10:30 p.m.; blood samples were obtained beginning 1 h predose through 12 h postdose. Subjects were 19 (SOM001) and 23 (SOM002) healthy adults between ages 20-46.
Dose-normalized total AUCs for modified-release preparations A, B, C and immediate-release zaleplon were not significantly different; peak plasma concentrations were similar for A and B, and both were significantly higher than C. Time to peak plasma concentration for A, B, and C were 4-5 h compared to 1.5 h for immediate-release zaleplon; mean terminal phase half-life was in the range 1-2 h for A, B and immediate-release zaleplon. No significant differences were noted between day and night administration in the SOM002 study.
Zaleplon, 15 mg, in a novel, modified-release formulation (SKP-1041) had a time to peak plasma concentrations at 4-5 h postdose compared to 1.5 h for immediate-release zaleplon, 10 mg. The pharmacokinetic profile suggests this formulation may be useful for treating middle-of-the-night awakening.
两项研究旨在确定佐匹克隆(SKP-1041)改良释放制剂的药代动力学特征。
方案 SOM001 是一项 5 向交叉、双盲、随机试验,比较了佐匹克隆 15 毫克(SKP-1041A、SKP-1041B、SKP-1041C)三种新型改良释放制剂与安慰剂和即时释放佐匹克隆 10 毫克的疗效。方案 SOM002 是一项随机、交叉、开放标签试验,比较了 SKP-1041B 日夜间给药后的药代动力学特征。在 SOM001 中,研究药物于上午 9:00(空腹)给药;从给药前 1 小时开始至给药后 12 小时内采集血样。在研究 SOM002 中,研究药物于上午 9:00 或晚上 10:30 给药;从给药前 1 小时开始至给药后 12 小时内采集血样。受试者为年龄在 20-46 岁之间的 19 名(SOM001)和 23 名(SOM002)健康成年人。
改良释放制剂 A、B、C 和即时释放佐匹克隆的剂量标准化总 AUC 无显著差异;A 和 B 的血浆峰浓度相似,均显著高于 C。A、B 和 C 的达峰时间为 4-5 小时,而即时释放佐匹克隆为 1.5 小时;A、B 和即时释放佐匹克隆的平均终末半衰期在 1-2 小时范围内。在 SOM002 研究中,白天和夜间给药无显著差异。
新型改良释放制剂(SKP-1041)的佐匹克隆 15 毫克,达峰时间为 4-5 小时,而即时释放佐匹克隆 10 毫克为 1.5 小时。药代动力学特征表明,该制剂可能对治疗半夜觉醒有用。
