Brief Summary: This First in Human (FIH) Phase I study intends to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ZYDPLA1 in normal healthy adult volunteers.
Detailed Description: Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and Glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) are incretin hormones, which stimulate glucose dependent insulin secretion, inhibit glucagon secretion, delay gastric emptying, suppress appetite and improve peripheral glucose uptake and disposal. Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) is a serine protease, which selectively cleaves the first two amino acids of GIP and GLP-1 thereby making it inactive. Inhibition of DPP-IV activity elevates endogenous GIP, GLP-1 and insulin levels thereby improving glucose excursion and exhibits antidiabetic activity. Since no orally active GLP-1 agonists are available, clinically orally bioavailable DPP-IV inhibitors hold great potential for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Cadila Healthcare Ltd. developed a novel and orally bioavailable DPP-IV inhibitor (ZYDPLA1). In-vitro studies confirm selective DPPIV inhibitory activity of the ZYDPLA1. Pre-clinical in vivo pharmacodynamic, absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) \& toxicological studies showed the promising antidiabetic activity, good exposure and safety profile of ZYDPLA1(in various animal models). Hence a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled first in man trial proposed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ZYDPLA1 in healthy volunteers. This study included 4 plans: i) single dose escalation study ii) multiple dose escalation study, iii) gender effect study and iv) food effect study.
