All trials for Neuropathic Pain All trials of Ondansetron 8mg with Saline & Tariquidar All trials of Ondansetron 16mg with Saline & Tariquidar
To determine the time-course of plasma and CSF concentrations of intravenous (IV) ondansetron in healthy subjects, with and without selective inhibition of Pgp efflux transporter.
The study hypothesis is that inhibition of Pgp efflux transporters will increase the CNS bio-distribution of the 5-HT3R antagonist ondansetron.
Specifically:
1. Intravenous administration of ondansetron is expected to yield low CSF exposure.
2. Co-administration of ondansetron with intravenous tariquidar, an inhibitor of Pgp efflux transporters, will result in increased CSF exposure of ondansetron.
| Arm | Type | Interventions | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ondansetron with Tariquidar | Experimental | Drug: Ondansetron 8mg with Saline & Tariquidar; Drug: Ondansetron 16mg with Saline & Tariquidar | The participants will receive an IV ondansetron infusion with tariquidar. Participants will receive either 8mg or 16 mg of iv ondansetron, with 4mg/kg tariguidar. |
| Ondansetron with Placebo | Placebo comparator | Drug: Ondansetron 8mg with Saline & Tariquidar; Drug: Ondansetron 16mg with Saline & Tariquidar | The participants will receive an IV ondansetron infusion with D5W as placebo. Participants will receive either 8mg or 16 mg of iv ondansetron. |
