Summary

In order to meet FDA standards of safety and efficacy reporting for most new drugs, food-effect bioavailability (the impact that the presence of food in the digestive tract has on the rate and extent at which a drug is absorbed into the bloodstream and delivered to the site of action) must be collected. Cystagon™ is an FDA approved drug for the treatment of the rare disease cystinosis that became available in 1994, but there is inadequate knowledge of the food-effect on this drug's bioavailability. This study aims to investigate how food affects the absorption of Cystagon™ into the bloodstream of normal healthy adults.
