Condition(s) targeted: Cardiology: RR / QT

Intervention: Erythromycin (Drug); Placebo (Drug)

Phase: Phase 1

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: Ectycell SASU

Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s):
Jean Sebastien Hulot, MD, Study Director, Affiliation: University PMCurrie-INSERM

Summary

The study main objective is to assess the changes in the ventricular repolarization (measure by the delta QTcf) after drug induced stimulation, compare to placebo, in order to identify subjects with extreme responses and collecting their skin and blood samples.

Clinical Details

Official title: Selections of Subjects With Dramatic Changes in Their Cardiac Repolarization Parameters After a Pharmacologic Stimulus Aiming to Collect Their Skin Biopsy and Blood Cells

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Pharmacokinetics/Dynamics Study, Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)

Primary outcome: Prolongation of cardiac QT due to erythromycin compare to Placebo reported as Delta QTcf

Secondary outcome:

Comparison Delta QTcf eryhtromycin-sotalol

Assess the effect of erythromycin Twave morphologie changes

Detailed description: An ECG is performed after a dose of sotalol on about 100 healthy subjects in order to identify about 20 extreme responders (10 high responders and 10 non responders) assessed as Delta QTcf compare to baseline. The ECG will be measured and the delta QTcf will be calculated on the 20 selected subjects in a second part of the clinical trial, cross over erythromycin/placebo.
