Radiprodil in Participants With Hepatic Impairment

Purpose

This Phase 1, open-label study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of a single oral dose of radiprodil in adults with varying degrees of hepatic impairment compared with healthy participants. Radiprodil is being developed as a potential treatment for GRIN-related neurodevelopmental disorders, tuberous sclerosis complex, and focal cortical dysplasia. Approximately 40 adults aged 18 to 75 years will be enrolled into five cohorts based on liver function (mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment) or healthy status. Participants will receive a single 15 mg oral dose of radiprodil and remain in the clinical research unit for intensive PK and safety monitoring through Day 6. The primary objective is to characterize the PK profile of radiprodil in participants with hepatic impairment compared with healthy participants. Safety and tolerability will also be assessed. Results from this study will help determine whether dose adjustments are needed in individuals with impaired liver function.

Exclusion Criteria

  • History or presence of clinically significant medical conditions that could interfere with study participation or interpretation of results. - Positive test for drugs of abuse, alcohol, or cotinine (where applicable) at Screening or check-in. - Positive serology for HIV, hepatitis B surface antigen, or hepatitis C virus. - Clinically significant abnormal laboratory values, vital signs, or ECG findings at Screening or Day -1, as judged by the investigator. - Use of prohibited concomitant medications or substances that may interfere with radiprodil metabolism. - Pregnant or breastfeeding women. - Participation in another clinical study or receipt of an investigational product within the protocol-specified timeframe prior to dosing. - Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator or sponsor, would make participation not in the best interest of the participant or could confound study results.

Intervention Model Description
Participants will be assigned to parallel cohorts based on hepatic function (mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment) or healthy status. All participants will receive a single oral dose of radiprodil 15 mg. Healthy participants will be enrolled to match hepatically impaired cohorts by age, sex, and body mass index where feasible. Cohorts will be initiated sequentially following Safety Review Committee review of available safety and pharmacokinetic data, but participants will not cross over between cohorts.

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1, open-label, two-arm study designed to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of a single oral dose of radiprodil in adults with varying degrees of hepatic impairment compared with matched healthy participants. Up to 40 participants aged 18 to 75 years will be enrolled across five cohorts. Participants will include individuals with mild (Child-Pugh Class A), moderate (Child-Pugh Class B), or severe (Child-Pugh Class C) hepatic impairment, as well as healthy participants matched for age, sex, and body mass index where feasible. The study consists of a Screening Period (Days -28 to -2), check-in on Day -1, and a Treatment Period. Participants will be confined to the clinical research unit from Day -1 through completion of study assessments on Day 6. On Day 1, all participants will receive a single oral dose of radiprodil 15 mg administered as an oral suspension. Serial blood samples will be collected to determine plasma concentrations of radiprodil and its major metabolites. Key PK parameters include area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), maximum observed concentration (Cmax), time to maximum concentration (Tmax), terminal half-life (t½), apparent clearance (CL/F), and apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F). Safety and tolerability will be evaluated throughout the study by monitoring adverse events, vital signs, electrocardiograms, clinical laboratory tests, physical examinations, and Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale assessments. Hepatic impairment can alter the metabolism and exposure of many drugs. Because radiprodil is primarily eliminated via hepatic metabolism, this study is intended to characterize the effect of liver impairment on radiprodil exposure and to inform potential dosing recommendations for future clinical use.
