Study Summary

The primary aim of this Phase 1 study is to evaluate the systemic safety of a novel prolonged-duration local anesthetic, Neosaxitoxin (NeoSTX), given by subcutaneous injection in combination with the commonly used local anesthetic, bupivacaine, and epinephrine. The investigators hypothesize that a "minimal adverse effect threshold" NeoSTX dose for subcutaneous administration in combination with bupivacaine 0.2% and epinephrine 5mcg/ml respectively, can be defined for awake, young adult healthy volunteer subjects. At the same time, the pharmacokinetics of NeoSTX when delivered subcutaneously will be determined.

Interventions

  • DRUG Neosaxitoxin in saline
  • DRUG NeoSTX + bupivacaine 0.2%
  • DRUG NeoSTX + bupivacaine 0.2% + epinephrine 5mcg/ml
  • OTHER Saline placebo
