A Pilot Study of Rapid Haplotyping Procedure for Personalized Dosing of Dichloroacetate (DCA) in Healthy Volunteers

NCT02690285

Non-randomizedSingle-groupOpen-labelScreening

Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the frequency of GSTZ1 haplotypes in a healthy adult population and determine the pharmacokinetics of Dichloroacetate (DCA) metabolism based on haplotype analysis. The DCA drug is the first targeted treatment for Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Deficiency (PDCD). This pilot study, focuses on developing a high throughput, sensitive and accurate screening test for determining glutathione transferase zeta 1 (GSTZ1) haplotype status in individuals who would be treated with DCA.
