Brief Summary  

Liposomal CoQ-10 is basically CoQ-10 in a liposome. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ-10), ubiquinone, is an endogenous lipophilic benzoquinone compound which acts as an electron transport in the respiratory chain of the mammalian mitochondrial membrane. Over the last few years, CoQ-10 gained significant research attention as a dietary supplement used for generating cellular bioenergy and preventing tissue damage caused by oxidative stress. 1 However, only a very small percentage of orally administered crystalline CoQ-10 is taken up in the blood stream, making the treatment of CoQ10 deficiencies difficult. Due to the hydrophobic nature of CoQ-10, the use of a liposomal carrier for the delivery might be possible. Since CoQ-10 is largely located in the inner mitochondrial membrane, a mitochondrial-targeted delivery system will be needed.

 

After obtaining the Ethics committee approval subjects will be asked to visit the site. After taking a written informed consent from the healthy subject’s, they will be asked about their medical history and the Investigator or his/her designee will conduct a physical examination. Demographics and vital signs will be recorded. Blood sample will be drawn from each subject for analysis of haematology, biochemistry and virology. X-ray and ECG will be performed.

 

  Subjects will be enrolled into the study after all the IC/EC criteria are met.

 

They will be asked to report to the site after 7 days. They will be in-housed into the facility. Physical examination will be conducted. Vitals will be recorded. They will be asked for overnight fasting for at least 10 hours

 

On the day of dosing, physical examination along will be performed. Vitals will be recorded. An indwelling IV cannula/scalp vein will be placed in-situ on a forearm vein of the subjects till 12 hours. Blood samples will be drawn for pharmacokinetic analysis on these time period 0hrs will be before the dosing. Vitals will be recorded at this time along with physical examination.

 

On the day of the study, phlebotomy will be performed within 01 hours prior to dosing. An indwelling IV cannula/scalp vein will be placed in-situ of a forearm vein of the subjects till 12 hours. Subsequent samples after 12.00 hrs. will be drawn by fresh direct venipuncture. After dosing these will be the time points of blood sampling, 0min, 30min, 60min, 90min, 120min, 3hr, 4hr, 6hr, 8hr, 12 hr and 24hrs.

 

Vitals will be recorded at these time points, 0min, 30min, 60min, 90min, 120min, 3hr, 4hr, 6hr, 8hr, 12 hr and post-dose and at the time of checkout (24.00 hrs).

 

The subject will be allowed to leave the facility after 24 hrs of dosing. Physical examination along with Vitals will be performed. Blood sample will be drawn for analysis of hematology and biochemistry. The subject will leave the facility after all the procedures have been conducted.
