Relative Bioavailability of Dordaviprone (ONC201) is Not Affected by Co-Administration of the Proton-Pump Inhibitor Rabeprazole.

Dordaviprone (ONC201) is a novel, orally administered, anti-cancer, small molecule imipridone with demonstrated antitumor effects in patients with glioma. Dordaviprone in vitro solubility is significantly reduced at pH >4.5.

Safety and pharmacokinetics of ONC201 (dordaviprone) administered two consecutive days per week in pediatric patients with H3 K27M-mutant glioma.

Background: This study evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of oral ONC201 administered twice-weekly on consecutive days (D1D2) in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed DIPG and/or recurrent/refractory H3 K27M glioma.

Methods: This phase 1 dose-escalation and expansion study included pediatric patients with H3 K27M-mutant glioma and/or DIPG following ≥1 line of therapy (NCT03416530). ONC201 was administered D1D2 at 3 dose levels (DLs; -1, 1, and 2).

Pharmacokinetics of Coadministered Viloxazine Extended-Release (SPN-812) and Lisdexamfetamine in Healthy Adults.

Background: Viloxazine extended-release is a novel nonstimulant under investigation as a potential treatment for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Given the potential for viloxazine extended-release to be co-administered with stimulant ADHD pharmacotherapies, this trial investigated the pharmacokinetics and safety of combination viloxazine extended-release + lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (lisdexamfetamine) versus viloxazine extended-release and lisdexamfetamine alone.

Methods: In this single-center, cross-over, open-label trial, healthy, non-ADHD adults received single oral doses of 700 mg viloxazine extended-release alone, 50 mg lisdexamfetamine alone, and a combination of viloxazine extended-release (700 mg) + lisdexamfetamine (50 mg), with blood samples collected over 4 days postadministration.

Pharmacokinetics of Coadministered Viloxazine Extended-Release (SPN-812) and Methylphenidate in Healthy Adults.

Background And Objectives: Viloxazine extended-release (viloxazine ER, SPN-812) is a novel non-stimulant with activity at serotonin receptors and the norepinephrine transporter, which is under investigation as a potential treatment for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Given the potential for viloxazine ER to be coadministered with other pharmacotherapies, this trial investigated the pharmacokinetics and safety of combination viloxazine ER + methylphenidate versus viloxazine ER or methylphenidate alone.

Methods: In this single-center, crossover, open-label trial, healthy adult participants received oral administration of 700 mg viloxazine ER alone, 36 mg methylphenidate alone, and combination viloxazine ER (700 mg) + methylphenidate (36 mg), with blood samples collected over 4 days post-administration.

Evaluation of the Effect of SPN-812 (Viloxazine Extended-Release) on QTc Interval in Healthy Adults.

Objective: To assess the effects of a supratherapeutic dose of SPN-812, a drug currently under investigation as a treatment for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, on cardiac repolarization (QTc) in healthy adults.

Methods: The study was conducted from June 27, 2018, to July 10, 2018. It had a double-blind, randomized, crossover design in which subjects received a 3-treatment sequence-placebo, 400 mg moxifloxacin, and 1,800 mg SPN-812 for 2 consecutive days (separated by at least a 3-day washout).

l-tetrahydropalmatine reduces nicotine self-administration and reinstatement in rats.

Background: The negative consequences of nicotine use are well known and documented, however, abstaining from nicotine use and achieving abstinence poses a major challenge for the majority of nicotine users trying to quit. l-Tetrahydropalmatine (l-THP), a compound extracted from the Chinese herb Corydalis, displayed utility in the treatment of cocaine and heroin addiction via reduction of drug-intake and relapse. The present study examined the effects of l-THP on abuse-related effects of nicotine.
