Safety and Pharmacology Study of VP 20629 in Adults With Friedreich's Ataxia. ClinicalTrials.gov

A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Oral VP 20629 in Adult Subjects With Friedreich's Ataxia, Sponsor: ViroPharma

The objectives of the study are:

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single and multiple oral doses of VP 20629 in subjects with Friedreich's ataxia (FA). [Primary]
To characterize the pharmacokinetics of VP 20629 by investigation of the plasma concentration-time profile following single and multiple oral doses in subjects with FA. [Secondary]
To investigate the pharmacodynamic effects of VP 20629 on plasma 8-isoprostane and malondialdehyde and urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine concentrations following multiple oral doses in subjects with FA. [Exploratory]
