PG - 87-94 LID - 10.1002/cpdd.464 [doi] AB - Single-and multiple-dose pharmacokinetics and safety were investigated in this phase 1 study of dichlorphenamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor approved in the United States for treatment of primary periodic paralysis. Dichlorphenamide was administered to 6 cohorts (n = 6 each) of healthy adults. Cohorts A through E received single doses of 25-400 mg followed by 50-800 mg/day in divided doses for 10 total doses. Cohort F (safety analysis only) received up to 28 titrated doses from 100-800 mg/day. Plasma for pharmacokinetics sampling was obtained predose and up to 48 hours postdose. Twenty-five of 36 enrolled subjects completed. Median time to maximum plasma concentration ranged from 1.5-3 hours, and mean half-life from 32-68 hours. Mean area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 to tau (length of the dosing interval estimated using the trapezoidal method) and maximum observed plasma concentration increased dose-proportionally after multiple doses. The incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) were dose-related, with at least one mild AE reported among 17%, 17%, and 67% of patients in cohorts A, B, and C, respectively; and at least one mild-to-moderate AE among 100% of subjects in cohorts D, E, and F. One serious AE of rash was reported in cohort F. Eleven subjects discontinued; 10 due to AEs at 400 or 800 mg/day (cohorts E and F), including 100% of cohort F. Hypokalemia contributed to 5 of 6 discontinuations in cohort F (all 800 mg/day). CI - (c) 2018 The Authors.
