Pharmacokinetic parameters of BAF312 and selected metabolites
The pharmacokineticsof BAF312 will be studied in plasma up to 312 (+/-24) hours post-dose at the following time points: pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, 216, and 312 (+/-24) hours post dose. Selected metabolites will also be quantified using the same samples as described above. Free plasma circulating fraction of BAF312 will also be investigated to assess whether protein binding is affected by renal impairment. For this purpose a separate blood sample will be taken at the following time point: 4 hours post-dose.
Time frame: pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144, 216, and 312 hours post dose
Number of participants with Adverse Events as a measure of Safety and Tolerability
Physical examination, vital signs, body temperature, standard safety laboratory evaluations (hematology, clinical chemistry, coagulation, Hepatitis B and C and HIV serology, pregnancy test, alcohol and drug screen), standard 12-lead electrocardiogram , cardiac monitoring, 24-h Holter ECG, (serious) adverse event monitoring.
Time frame: Day 1 - Day 14
