Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (21)

  • total ketones AUC0-t

    The area under the concentration-time curve, from time 0 to the last observed non-zero concentration, as calculated by the linear trapezoidal method.

    0-24 hours

  • total ketones AUC0-inf

    The area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity. AUC0-inf is calculated as the sum of AUC0-t plus the ratio of the last measurable serum concentration to the elimination rate constant.

    0-24 hours

  • total ketones AUC%extap

    Percent of AUCo-inf extrapolated, represented as (1 - AUC0-t/AUC0-inf)\*100

    0-24 hours

  • total ketones Cmax

    Maximum observed concentration

    0-24 hours

  • total ketones Kel

    Apparent first-order terminal elimination rate constant calculated from a semi-log plot of the serum concentration versus time curve. The parameter will be calculated by linear least-squares regression analysis using the maximum number of points in the terminal log-linear phase (e.g., three or more non-zero serum concentrations)

    0-24 hours

  • total ketones T 1/2

    Apparent first-order terminal elimination half-life will be calculated as 0.693/Kel

    0-24 hours

  • total ketones Tmax

    Time to reach Cmax. If the value occurs at more than one time point, Tmax is defined as the first time point with this value

    0-24 hours

  • β hydroxybutyrate AUC0-t

    The area under the concentration-time curve, from time 0 to the last observed non-zero concentration, as calculated by the linear trapezoidal method.

    0-24 hours

  • β hydroxybutyrate AUC0-inf

    The area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity. AUC0-inf is calculated as the sum of AUC0-t plus the ratio of the last measurable serum concentration to the elimination rate constant.

    0-24 hours

  • β hydroxybutyrate AUC%extap

    Percent of AUCo-inf extrapolated, represented as (1 - AUC0-t/AUC0-inf)\*100

    0-24 hours

  • β hydroxybutyrate Cmax

    Maximum observed concentration

    0-24 hours

  • β hydroxybutyrate Tmax

    Time to reach Cmax. If the value occurs at more than one time point, Tmax is defined as the first time point with this value

    0-24 hours

  • estimate of acetoacetate AUC0-t

    The area under the concentration-time curve, from time 0 to the last observed non-zero concentration, as calculated by the linear trapezoidal method.

    0-24 hours

  • estimate of acetoacetate AUC0-inf

    The area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity. AUC0-inf is calculated as the sum of AUC0-t plus the ratio of the last measurable serum concentration to the elimination rate constant.

  • Seated heart rate is lower than 40 bpm or higher than 99 bpm at screening.
  • QTcF interval is \>460 msec or has ECG findings deemed abnormal with clinical significance by the PI or designee at screening.

  • Unable to refrain from or anticipates the use of any drug, including prescription and non prescription medications, herbal remedies, or vitamin supplements beginning 14 days prior to Day -1 of Period 1 and throughout the study.
