Effects of Three Single Oral Doses of Trazodone on the QTc Interval Duration in Healthy Volunteers

Summary

The present study has been designed to evaluate the effect of three doses of trazodone (20, 60 and 140 mg), in comparison to placebo, on the QT/QTc interval of healthy volunteers. Trazodone oral drops 6% formulation has been selected in order to evaluate the three doses using the same formulation, because the lowest available strength for the tablet formulations is 50 mg. According to the E14 guideline on the evaluation of QT/QTc interval prolongation and proarrhythmic potential of antiarrhytmic drugs, a negative control (placebo) and a positive control (moxifloxacin) will also be assessed.
