NCT01018420

Brief Summary

This study will characterize the pharmacokinetics of colchicine after an oral dosing regimen of 4.8 mg over 6 hours. In addition it will compare the electrocardiogram (ECG) changes, if any, from this dosing regimen to that of a single dose of moxifloxacin 400 mg, a positive control for the corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    The maximum or peak concentration that colchicine reaches in the plasma.

    serial pharmacokinetic blood samples collected pre-dose and 1 (prior to second dose), 3 (prior to fourth dose), 6 (prior to final dose), 6.17, 6.33, 6.5, 6.75, 7, 7.25, 7.5, 7.75, 8, 10, 12, 23, 36, 48, 72 and 96 hours post-dose

  • Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time 0 to Time t [AUC(0-t)]

    The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve, from time 0 to the time of the last measurable concentration (t), as calculated by the linear trapezoidal rule.

    serial pharmacokinetic blood samples collected pre-dose and 1 (prior to second dose), 3 (prior to fourth dose), 6 (prior to final dose), 6.17, 6.33, 6.5, 6.75, 7, 7.25, 7.5, 7.75, 8, 10, 12, 23, 36, 48, 72 and 96 hours post-dose

  • Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time 0 Extrapolated to Infinity [AUC(0-∞)]

    The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time 0 to infinity. AUC(0-∞) was calculated as the sum of AUC(0-t) plus the ratio of the last measurable plasma concentration to the elimination rate constant.

    serial pharmacokinetic blood samples collected pre-dose and 1 (prior to second dose), 3 (prior to fourth dose), 6 (prior to final dose), 6.17, 6.33, 6.5, 6.75, 7, 7.25, 7.5, 7.75, 8, 10, 12, 23, 36, 48, 72 and 96 hours post-dose

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG) Evaluation of the QTcF Interval (Colchicine)

    24 hours - measured 0.5 hr prior to first dose (baseline), then 1, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, and 23 hours after first dose

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG) Evaluation of the QTcF Interval (Moxifloxacin)

    24 hours - measured 0.5 hr prior to dose (baseline), then 1, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, and 23 hours after dose
