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.
