Is it safe for people to take a new medicine (GDC-2394) – and how is the medicine is processed by the body
Cardiovascular Disorder Cardiovascular Disease
Basic Details
Healthy volunteers were enrolled at one study site in New Zealand to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GDC-2394, an NLRP3 inhibitor. Sixty-seven participants enrolled in the phase 1, placebo-controlled and randomized, double-blind, dose-escalation study. Results showed that the concentration of GDC-2394 in the body increased when the dose taken was increased. There was not much difference in the concentration whether taken with food or on an empty stomach. GDC-2394 did not affect how a second medicine (midazolam) was processed by the body. Two of 67 people (3%) experienced serious side effects that the doctors believed to be related to GDC-2394. These side effects eventually resolved. This study was stopped and nobody was allowed any more GDC-2394 because of these serious side effects.
