A Phase I, Randomized, Open-Labeled Pharmacokinetic Study of ALZT-OP1 in Normal Healthy Volunteers
This is an open-labeled, cross-over design, pharmacokinetic study, to determine the
pharmacokinetics of ALZT-OP1 (a combination drug therapy) designated as ALZT-OP1a and
ALZT-OP1b, in both plasma and CSF, following co-administration of the active compounds, in
healthy volunteers, aged 55-75, and in good general health.

ALZT-OP1b, in both plasma and CSF, following co-administration of the active compounds, in
healthy volunteers, aged 55-75, and in good general health.
This is an open-labeled, cross-over design, pharmacokinetic study, where 24 subjects will be
randomly assigned to receive treatment regimen A-B or B-A on two consecutive days of dosing.
Two dosing groups are planned for the study :
- Group 1 (n=12)
- Group 2 (n=12)
Each group will be admitted to the Phase I Unit the evening before dosing and will initiate
dosing the next morning for 2-days of consecutive treatment (A-B, or B-A). Both groups will
undergo identical study related procedures, except those subjects that consent to CSF
collection on Day 1 of dosing.
Dose regimen A consists of a single inhaled oral dose of ALZT-OP1a via dry powder inhaler +
a single oral tablet dose of ALZT-OP1b.
Dose regimen B consists of two oral inhaled doses of ALZT-OP1a, not more than 2 minutes
apart, via dry powder inhaler + two oral tablet doses of ALZT-OP1b.
Plasma Collection, All Subjects (n=24) 1 mL blood samples will be collected at T: 0, 5, 10,
15, 30, 1 hr, 2 hr, 4 hr, and 6 hours, following ALZT-OP1 administration (Days 1 and 2).
CSF Collection, Sub-group (n=12) A sub-group of 12 subjects will be consented for CSF
collection.
1 mL of CSF will be collected at T: 0, 5 min, 30 min, 2 hr, and 4 hours, following ALZT-OP1
administration (Day 1 only).
