Safety, Tolerability and PK 3-Period Crossover Study Comparing 2 Single Doses of ZTI-01 and Monurol® in Healthy Subjects

A Randomized, Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics 3-Period Crossover Study Comparing 2 Single Doses of ZTI-01 and Monurol® in Healthy Subjects

The objective is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of 2 single doses of ZTI-01 (1g and 8g infused over 1-hr) and a single dose of the Reference Label Drug, Monurol® (oral sachet, 3g). Subjects will be randomized to a treatment sequence prior to dosing on Day 1 of Period 1 prior to study screening.

This is a Phase 1 single-dose, randomized, 3-Period, crossover study conducted at a single center. A total of 30 healthy subjects, aged 18-45years, will be randomized to receive one of 3 treatment sequences. The duration of study will be approximately 18-26 days and subject participation will be the duration of study. Each treatment sequence will be enrolled in parallel and each subject will receive all 3 treatments in crossover fashion. Each subject will complete Screening, Baseline, and Treatment Phases. The Screening Phase will be conducted on an outpatient basis within 35 days of admission (Day -1 of Period 1). All subjects admitted to the study center the day before dosing in each treatment period (Day -1; check-in) for pre-dosing assessments and will remain in the study center through 48 hours post-dose for each Period. Final baseline qualification will only be evaluated prior to randomization for Treatment Period 1. Each one of the periods will be separated by a 3 (minimum) to 7 days (maximum) washout period. The Treatment Phase will be comprised of 3 crossover periods (duration Day-1 to 48 hours post dose). Each crossover period will include a single dose of study drug under fasting conditions followed by post-dose safety assessments and blood and urine collection for PK measures through 48 hours post-dose; each period will be separated by a 3 to 7 days washout. Subjects will remain in the study center for all 3- study treatment periods (Day -1 to 48 hours post dosing) and will be discharged after the 48-hour sampling timepoint (if safety parameters are acceptable to the Investigator on Day 3).

Inclusion Criteria:

To be considered for study enrollment, subjects must meet all of the inclusion criteria:

• Healthy men and women from 18 to 45 years of age with no clinically significant findings on medical history, physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) or clinical laboratory evaluation that were performed at Screening and Day -1.

• Male subjects must either had a vasectomy or agree to use a double barrier method of contraception, condom plus spermicide (or diaphragm plus spermicide in female partner) from the time of dosing with the study drug in Period 1 through 4 weeks following initiation of dosing with study drug.
• Nicotine-free by history (cigarettes, pipe, cigar, chewing tobacco, nicotine patch) for at least 30 days before Day -1 and urine cotinine at pre-study screening and Day -1 <400 ng/mL).
• Able to abstain from grapefruit, grapefruit juice, grapefruit-containing products or alcoholic beverages within 48 hours before Day -1 and throughout the inpatient period.
• Willing to remain in the study facility and agree to abide to the Quintiles Phase 1 Unit House Rules for the duration of the inpatient study period.
• Have a high probability for compliance and completion of the study.
• Sign a dated, witnessed, written informed consent form

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects must meet none of the following study criteria at Study Day -1, Period 1:

• History or presence of any psychiatric or emotional disorder that might prevent the successful completion of the study.
• Any surgical or medical condition that in the opinion of the investigator could interfere with drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion or any condition that may place the subject at increased risk while participating in the study. Examples of the conditions for exclusion: previous bariatric surgery, cardiovascular disease, renal impairment, renal disease, liver disease, chronic pulmonary disease, venous insufficiency, peripheral edema, borderline hypertension systolic pressure over > 140mmHg and or diastolic pressure >90 mmHg, serum sodium or liver enzymes above the upper limit, Regarding the last two conditions, one repeat is allowed at both screening and check-in to determine eligibility.
• Any history or presence of clinically significant allergic conditions (e.g., recurrent dermatitis or drug hypersensitivity reactions).
• Have cancer or have a history of cancer (with exceptions of a few types of cancer, e.g. recent removal of basal cell skin carcinoma) within the past five years.
• Irritable bowel syndrome or any gastrointestinal disease (including frequent nausea due to migraine) within 30 days prior to study day 1, Period 1.
• History or presence of lactose intolerance.

• History of intolerance or hypersensitivity to phosphonic acid derivative antibiotics or any of its constituents
• Use of any prescription drugs within 30 days of administration of the study drug
• Involvement in other investigational studies of any type (drugs, devices, procedures) within 30 days of screening.
• Blood or blood products donation within 60 days of Day -1.
• Use of any non-prescription medications, vitamins, licorice (in large amounts) or dietary supplements within 7 days of administration of the study drug. Excluded from this list is intermittent use of acetaminophen at doses of </=2 g/day. Herbal supplements must be discontinued 7 days prior to the initial dose of study drug.
