The Pharmacokinetics, and Safety of Brexpiprazole Tablets in Chinese Healthy Subjects

A Single-center, Open-label Study Evaluating the Pharmacokinetics, and Safety of Multiple Dose Oral Brexpiprazole Tablets (1 mg) in Chinese Healthy Subjects

This study is a single-center, open-label study evaluating the pharmacokinetics and safety of multiple dose oral administration of Brexpiprazole (1 mg) tablets in Chinese healthy subject.10 healthy adult subjects will be enrolled in this study. A single dose (Brexpiprazole 1 mg) group is set and the test drug will be administered for 14 consecutive days.

10 healthy adult subjects will be enrolled in this study. A single dose (Brexpiprazole 1 mg) group is set and the test drug will be administered for 14 consecutive days.

After receiving the informed consent form the subject themselves, the investigators start the screening 14 days to 1 days prior to taking the study drug (D-14 to D-1).

One day before first dosing (D-1), subjects are hospitalized. On the next day (D1), after completed the hospitalization inspection, eligible subjects will be selected to start with the first dose, and from day 1 to day 14 (D1 to D14), continue once daily dosing and complete the corresponding inspection, observation and blood sampling. They continue hospitalization and are discharged on day 17 (D17) after completing the relevant examinations. On days 19, 21, 23，25 (D19, D21，D23 and D25), blood samples are collected and safety evaluation is performed.

Telephone follow-up is performed on day 44 (D44, 30 days after the last dose of the drug).

Subjects who early terminated the test after taking the study drug should be tested at the end of the study (D25/ET) as far as possible.

Blood samples for pharmacokinetic evaluation are collected before daily dosing; D1 (before dosing, and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12 hours after dosing), D2 (before dosing and 24 hours after first dosing), D10 (before dosing), D11 (before dosing), D12 (before dosing), D13 (before dosing), D14 (before dosing, and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12 hours after dosing), D15 (24 hours after last dosing), D16 (48 hours after last dosing), D17 (72 hours after last dosing), D18 (96 hours after last dosing), D19 (120 hours after last dosing), D21 (168 hours after last dosing),D23 (216 hours after last dosing), D25 (264 hours after last dosing). 31 Blood samples collecting points in total.
