Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

To determine if a single subcutaneous (SC) administration of TTX at various dose levels has an effect on the QT/QTc intervals when assessing concentration QT (C-QT) relationship (i.e., QT/QTc intervals prolongation in relation to plasma levels of TTX) in healthy adult subjects. Secondary: 1. To determine if a single SC administration of TTX at various dose levels has an effect on other important electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters in healthy adult subjects. 2. To demonstrate sensitivity of this QTc assay using moxifloxacin as a positive control. 3. To confirm plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) of a single SC administration of TTX at various dose levels when administered to healthy adult subjects. 4. To determine the overall safety and tolerability of a single SC administration of TTX at various dose levels when administered to healthy adult subjects. Test Product, Dose, Duration, Mode of Administration, and Batch Number: The test product was 30 µg/mL tetrodotoxin (TTX) for injection, Lot No. F141124-001. Subjects were also administered: * Tetrodotoxin matching placebo a sterile 0.9% sodium chloride injection or normal saline for injection, Lot No. 84-093-DK * 400 mg Avelox® (moxifloxacin hydrochloride) tablets, Lot No. BXHJ1S1 * Moxifloxacin matching placebo film-coated tablets, Id.-No.: K15372, Batch No.: C1606007 Treatments were as follows: Treatment Arm (n = 9) Treatment A: (Period 1) A single TTX dose of 15 μg (0.5 mL of TTX 30 μg/mL injection solution) administered as 1 SC injection with a single oral moxifloxacin matching placebo (1 x placebo tablet) Treatment B: (Period 2) A single TTX dose of 30 μg (1 mL of TTX 30 μg/mL injection solution) administered as 1 SC injection with a single oral moxifloxacin matching placebo (1 x placebo tablet) Treatment C: (Period 3) A single TTX dose of 45 μg (1.5 mL of TTX 30 μg/mL injection solution) administered as 2 SC injections with a single oral moxifloxacin matching placebo (1 x placebo tablet) Subjects randomized to the Control Arm were further randomized to receive 1 of 2 treatment sequences (Treatment Sequence DEF \[n = 8\] and Treatment Sequence GHI \[n = 8\]): Control Arm (n = 16) Treatment D: (Period 1) A single matching-TTX placebo (0.5 mL of placebo injection solution) administered as 1 SC injection with a single oral moxifloxacin matching placebo (1 x placebo tablet) Treatment E: (Period 2) A single matching-TTX placebo (1 mL of placebo injection solution) administered as 1 SC injection with a single oral 400 mg moxifloxacin (1 x 400 mg tablet) Treatment F: (Period 3) A single matching-TTX placebo (1.5 mL of placebo injection solution) administered as 2 SC injections with a single oral moxifloxacin matching placebo (1 x placebo tablet) Treatment G: (Period 1) A single matching-TTX placebo (0.5 mL of placebo injection solution) administered as 1 SC injection with a single oral 400 mg moxifloxacin (1 x 400 mg tablet) Treatment H: (Period 2) A single matching-TTX placebo (1 mL of placebo injection solution) administered as 1 SC injection with a single oral moxifloxacin matching placebo (1 x placebo tablet) Treatment I: (Period 3) A single matching-TTX placebo (1.5 mL of placebo injection solution) administered as 2 SC injections with a single oral 400 mg moxifloxacin (1 x 400 mg tablet) All oral study drugs were administered with approximately 240 mL of water.
