Relative bioavailability and the effect of meal type and timing on the pharmacokinetics of migalastat in healthy volunteers.

Migalastat HCl is an investigational, pharmacological chaperone for mutant α-galactosidase A, which is responsible for Fabry disease, an X-linked, lysosomal storage disorder. Two Phase I studies evaluated relative bioavailability, effect of meal type and timing on pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of migalastat HCl in healthy volunteers. Study 1 (N = 15, 19-55 years): single 100-mg doses of migalastat HCl capsule and solution formulations were bioequivalent. The ratios of LSM (90% CIs) for Cmax were 97.1% (86.8-109) and AUC0-inf 97.9% (88.8-108) under fasted conditions. Single 100-mg doses of migalastat HCl capsules administered with a high-fat meal decreased Cmax by 40% and AUC0-inf by 37%. A high-fat meal delayed tmax by approximately 1 hour. Study 2 (N = 20, 18-65 years): A high-fat or light meal up to 1 hour before or after administration of single 150 mg doses of migalastat HCl capsules decreased Cmax and AUC0-inf up to 40%, but had no apparent effect on tmax (range of medians with food: 1.5-3 hours, median fasted: 3 hours). A 50-g glucose drink co-administered with migalastat HCL did not result in clinically significant changes in migalastat absorption. No serious safety or tolerability issues were identified.
