ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Pharmacokinetics and safety of JNJ-64530440, a hepatitis B virus capsid assembly modulator producing normal empty capsids (CAM-N), in healthy volunteers were evaluated.METHODS:
This Phase I study (NCT03439488) was a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled study. Adults (n = 10/cohort, five Asian/five non-Asian), randomised 41, received single-ascending doses of oral JNJ-64530440 (first- and second-generation formulations) or placebo under fasted (50, 150, 300 and 900 mg) or fed (300, 750, 1,000, 2000 and 4000 mg) conditions. Multiple-ascending doses of 750 or 2000 mg once daily and 750 mg twice daily JNJ-64530440 (second-generation formulation) for 7 days were evaluated. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated from plasma concentrations. Safety was assessed throughout.RESULTS:
Less than dose-proportional increases in maximum plasma concentrations (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curves (AUCs) were observed across the doses. Mean plasma half-lives ranged from 9.3 to 14.5 h. Cmax and AUC were â¼two fold higher under fed versus fasting conditions and slightly higher in Asians versus Caucasians. JNJ-64530440 doses ≥750 mg achieved plasma levels higher than protein-binding adjusted concentrations demonstrating in vitro antiviral activity. No serious adverse events (AEs), treatment discontinuations or dose-limiting toxicities were seen. AE frequency/severity did not increase with dose.CONCLUSIONS:
Single (up to 4000 mg) and multiple doses (up to 2000 mg for 7 days) of JNJ-64530440 were well tolerated in healthy volunteers. Multiple doses ≥750 mg/day achieved plasma concentrations expected to have antiviral activity that may lower hepatitis B surface antigen. No clinically relevant differences in tolerability or pharmacokinetic parameters were seen between Asians versus Caucasians.Palavras-chave
