Phase I study to evaluate of the gastric pH-dependent drug interaction between famitinib and the proton pump inhibitor omeprazole in healthy subjects

SummaryTo evaluate the potential gastric pH-dependent drug-drug interaction (DDI), safety and tolerability of famitinib co-administered with omeprazole in healthy subjects. Twenty healthy subjects were enrolled in a single-center, single-arm, open-label, fixed-sequence study. Famitinib was administered as a single oral 25  mg under a fasting condition on day 1, omeprazole (40 mg once daily) was given on days 10–14, concomitantly with famitinib on day 15, and for the follow-up 7 additional days (days 16–22). Blood samples were collected for the pharmacokinetic analysis of famitinib and its metabolite SHR116637 f ollowing each famitinib dose. Safety and tolerability were assessed during the whole progress via clinical laboratory tests. The least-squares geometric mean ratios (GMRs) (90% CI) ofCmax,AUC0-t andAUC0- ∞ for famitinib combined with omeprazole to famitinib alone were 0.989 (0.953, 1.027), 0.956 (0.907, 1.007) and 0.953(0.905, 1.005) respectively. For the metabolite SHR116637, their GMRs (90% CI) of the above parameters were 0.851 (0.786, 0.920), 0.890 (0.838, 0.946)and 0.887 (0.835, 0.943), indicating the absence of significant differences in the parameters. During the treatment period, 9(45%) subjects reported 16 treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE), among which 6 subjects (30%) reported 9 TEAEs and 1 subject (5%) reported 1 TEAE during famitinib or omeprazole administered alone respectively, 5 subjects (25.0%) reported 6 TEAEs during in the combined admi...
