NCT00874276

Brief Summary

To establish the relationship between human MAAI haplotype and DCA and tyrosine metabolism. This aim test the postulates that MAAI haplotype determines, and thus can predict,1) dose-dependent DCA kinetics and biotransformation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hypothesize That Subject's Genotype Will Determine How DCA is Metabolized.

    Terminal half-life (the amount of time needed to clear one-half of dose of the drug).

    24 hours for analysis on Day 5, Clinical dose

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Terminal Half-life (the Amount of Time Needed to Clear One-half of the Dose of Drug)for Environmental Dose 2.5 ug/kg/Day.

    24 hours for analysis on Day 5, Environmental dose

Study Arms (2)

No EGT Allele, slow metabolizers for DCA

EXPERIMENTAL

Individuals were genotyped at the beginning of the study and their haplotypes were defined. Dichloroacetate 2.5.ug/kg (non-clinical dose) will be administered for five days in the clinical research center. On day 5 with the dose of DCA a pharmacokinetics test will be performed for 24 hours. 30 days later the individuals will return to the clinic and receive Dichloroacetate 25mg/kg (clinical dose) for five days. On day 1 and day 5 Pharmacokinetics will be performed to determine the relationship between DCA metabolism and haplotype.

1+ EGT Allele, fast metabolizers for DCANo EGT Allele, slow metabolizers for DCA

Individuals were genotyped at the beginning of the study and their haplotypes were defined. The study is looking at individuals with genetic markers on Chromosome 14q24.3 to determine if there will be a difference in how the DCA will be metabolized.
