PK Study of IV and Oral Amisulpride in Subjects With Severe Renal Impairment

This will be an open-label, non-randomised, pharmacokinetic study in

• 6 adult subjects with severe renal impairment and end-stage renal disease (i.e., eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) without dialysis.
• 6 matched healthy subjects (control group).

Each subject will be given a single dose of 10 mg IV Amisulpride, followed by a single dose of 10 mg oral Amisulpride given 24 hours later.

Subjects will be admitted to the clinic on Day -1. Dosing will start the following day (Day 1). Serial blood samples will be taken during Days 1-3 to assess the pharmacokinetics of Amisulpride. Subjects will remain in clinic over the duration of the study and will be discharged when the final blood sample is drawn on Day 3.

The tolerability /safety of Amisulpride will be assessed by clinical chemistry and haematology assessments, vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECG), physical examination and adverse event reporting.

Inclusion criteria

Healthy Subjects

• Age 18 to 75 years of age at time of signing ICF.
• Body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 38 kg/m2.
• Must be willing and able to communicate and participate in the whole study.
• Must provide written informed consent.
• Must agree to use an adequate method of contraception
• Healthy as defined by:

• The absence of clinically significant illness and surgery within 4 weeks prior to dosing. Subjects vomiting within 24 hours pre-dose will be carefully evaluated for upcoming illness/disease. Inclusion pre-dosing is at the discretion of the Principal Investigator;
• The absence of clinically significant history of neurological, endocrine, cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematological, immunologic, psychiatric, gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic (including cholecystectomy), and metabolic disease;
• The absence of clinically significant history of lactic acidosis and severe hepatomegaly with steatosis;
• The absence of history of suicidal tendency, disposition to seizures, state of confusion, or clinically relevant psychiatric diseases.
• Normal renal function, i.e., eGFR or creatinine clearance ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 as calculated using the MDRD4 or Cockcroft-Gault equation; at the Principal Investigator's discretion, 24 hour creatinine clearance may be conducted to determine renal function.
• Matched to subjects with severe renal impairment for gender, age (± 10 years), and BMI (± 15%) to the extent possible.

Inclusion criteria

Renal Impaired Subjects

• Must provide written informed consent.
• Must agree to use an adequate method of contraception
• A diagnosis of renal impairment that has been stable, without significant change in overall disease status in the 3 months prior to screening as determined by the Principal Investigator, with no requirement for dialysis, and an eGFR at screening < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 calculated using the MDRD4 equation.
