Pharmacotoxicology of Trichloroethylene Metabolites
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Dichloroacetate (DCA) and Genetic Marker on Chromosome 14q24.3 for Congenital Lactic Acidosis. Completed, enrolled 21 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
To establish the relationship between human MAAI haplotype and DCA and tyrosine metabolism. This aim test the postulates that MAAI haplotype determines, and thus can predict,1) dose-dependent DCA kinetics and biotransformation.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Dichloroacetate 2.5.ug/kg will be administered for five days in the clinical research center. On day 5 with the dose of DCA a pharmacokinetics test will be performed for 24 hours. 30 days later the individuals will return to the clinic and receive Dichloroacetate 25mg/kg (clinical dose) for five days. On day 1 and day 5 Pharmacokinetics will be performed to determine the relationship between DCA metabolism and haplotype.
Individuals were genotyped at the beginning of the study and their haplotypes were defined. The study is looking at individuals with genetic markers on Chromosome 14q24.3 to determine if there will be a difference in how the DCA will be metabolized.
