A Study of Intravenous and Oral Isavuconazonium Sulfate in Pediatric Patients

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2019-07-05
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of multiple doses of intravenous (IV) and oral isavuconazonium sulfate administered daily in pediatric patients. The PK data will be utilized to establish a pediatric population PK model of isavuconazole, the active moiety of isavuconazonium sulfate.

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

• Or, if of childbearing potential: Agree not to try to become pregnant during the study and for 28 days after the final study drug administration; and have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test at screening; and, if heterosexually active, agree to consistently use 2 forms of highly effective birth control (at least one of which must be a barrier method) starting at screening and throughout the study and for 28 days after the final study drug administration.

• Female subject who is of childbearing potential must agree not to breastfeed starting at screening and throughout the study and for 28 days after the final study drug administration.

• Female subject who is of childbearing potential must not donate ova starting at screening and throughout the study and for 28 days after the final study drug administration.

• Male subject who is of childbearing potential and their female spouse/partner who is of childbearing potential must be using highly effective contraception consisting of 2 forms of birth control (at least one of which must be a barrier method) starting at screening and continue throughout the study, and for 90 days after the final study drug administration.

• Male subject who is of childbearing potential must not donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the study and, for 90 days after the final study drug administration.

• Subject and subject's parent(s) or legal guardian agree that the subject will not participate in another interventional study while on treatment.

• For oral cohorts: subject is able to swallow the oral capsule medication.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Subject has familial short QT syndrome, is receiving medications that are known to shorten the QT interval, or has a clinically significant abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG).

• Subject has evidence of hepatic dysfunction defined as:

• Total bilirubin ≥ 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)

• Alanine transaminase or aspartate transaminase ≥ 5 times the ULN

• Known cirrhosis or chronic hepatic failure

• Subject has used strong cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 inhibitors or inducers such as ketoconazole, rifampin/rifampicin, long acting barbiturates, carbamazepine and St. John's wort in the 5 days prior to the first administration of study drug.

• Subject has known history of allergy, hypersensitivity, or any serious reaction to any of the azole class antifungals.

• Subject has any condition which makes the subject unsuitable for study participation.

• Subject is unlikely to survive 30 days.

• Subject has received investigational therapy, with the exception of oncology drug trials, within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to screening.

• For oral cohorts: The subject has gastrointestinal disease or has had a procedure that is expected to interfere with the oral absorption or tolerance of the study drug (e.g., functionally relevant gastrointestinal obstruction, mucositis/stomatitis, or frequent vomiting).

• Subject previously dosed with isavuconazonium sulfate.
