Understanding the mechanisms of food effect on omaveloxolone pharmacokinetics through physiologically based biopharmaceutics modeling.

ABSTRACT: Omaveloxolone is a nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 activator approved in the United States and the European Union for the treatment of patients with Friedreich ataxia aged ≥16 years, with a recommended dosage of 150 mg orally once daily on an empty stomach. The effect of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) high-fat breakfast on the pharmacokinetic profile of omaveloxolone observed in study 408-C-1703 (NCT03664453) deviated from the usual linear correlation between fed/fasted maximum plasma concentration (C_max) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) ratios reported for various oral drugs across 323 food effect studies. Here, physiologically based biopharmaceutics modeling (PBBM) was implemented to predict and explain the effect of the FDA high-fat bre
