Objective This study aimed to investigate the effect of prandial status and caloric and fat composition of meals on the pharmacokinetics of lurasidone. Methods Two randomized, open-label, crossover studies were conducted in clinically stable adults with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Study 1 ( n = 16) evaluated the effect of fasting and three meal types (100 kcal/medium fat, 200 kcal/medium fat, and 800-1000 kcal/high fat), and Study 2 ( n = 26) evaluated the effect of fasting and five meal types (350 kcal/high fat, 500 kcal/low fat, 500 kcal/high fat, 800-1000 kcal/low fat, and 800-1000 kcal/high fat) on the bioavailability of lurasidone. Subjects received lurasidone 120 mg once daily. Maximum serum concentration ( Cmax) and area under the serum concentration-time curve over the dosing interval ( AUC0-tau) were determined on Day 5 for each meal type. Results In Study 1, the geometric mean Cmax in the fasted state was 56.7 ng/mL compared with 123.0 ng/mL for the 800- to 1000-kcal meal; mean AUC0-tau was 360.0 versus 752.4 ng·h/mL (both p < 0.001). Lurasidone exposure following meals containing 100 and 200 kcal was substantially lower than with meals containing 800-1000 kcal. In Study 2, the geometric mean Cmax was 52.9 ng/mL in the fasted state, 161 ng/mL for the 350-kcal/high-fat meal, 135 ng/mL for the 500-kcal/high-fat meal, and 131 ng/mL for the 800- to 1000-kcal/high-fat meal; mean AUC0-tau was 390, 743, 727, and 769 ng·h/mL, respectively. For all comparisons, the 90% confidence interval of the fed to fasted ratios indicated nonequivalence. Lurasidone exposure was similar following meals containing 350-1000 kcal and was independent of fat content. Conclusion Lurasidone should be administered with food-at least 350 kcal-to ensure maximum exposure. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
