Background: The present clinical trial investigated the potential influences of dosage and age on the pharmacokinetic properties and safety profile of HSK3486, and whether any adjustment in dosing regimen is necessary in elderly patients. Methods: Twenty-four elderly participants (65-73 years) were apportioned to three equal cohorts to receive a single IV bolus of 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 mg/kg HSK3486, respectively. An additional control group comprised eight non-elderly participants (21-44 years), who each received a single IV bolus dose of 0.4 mg/kg. Safety was assessed throughout the study, and the clinical effects were assessed based on modified observer's assessment of alertness/sedation and bispectral index (BIS) monitor. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. Results: The rates of drug-related adverse reactions among the elderly groups were a little higher than that of the non-elderly, and were slightly higher in the elderly receiving 0.4 mg/kg compared with the elderly given lower doses. The pharmacokinetic characteristics of 0.4 mg/kg HSK3486 in the elderly and non-elderly were comparable. The time to recovery was similar in elderly 0.3 mg/kg, elderly 0.4 mg/kg and non-elderly 0.4 mg/kg groups. In the elderly 0.2 mg/kg group, the time to loss of consciousness was a little longer, and the time to recovery was shorter, relative to the other three groups. Conclusions: Administration of 0.3 mg/kg to the elderly and 0.4 mg/kg to the non-elderly were similarly efficacious. A dose of HSK3486 of 0.3 mg/kg may be chosen for clinical use in elderly patients.

Registry and results database of federally and privately supported clinical trials conducted in United States and around world. Provides information about purpose of trial, who may participate, locations, and phone numbers for more details. This information should be used in conjunction with advice from health care professionals.Offers information for locating federally and privately supported clinical trials for wide range of diseases and conditions. Research study in human volunteers to answer specific health questions. Interventional trials determine whether experimental treatments or new ways of using known therapies are safe and effective under controlled environments. Observational trials address health issues in large groups of people or populations in natural settings. ClinicalTrials.gov contains trials sponsored by National Institutes of Health, other federal agencies, and private industry. Studies listed in database are conducted in all 50 States and in 178 countries.
