Summary

This study tested whether a combination pill called SJP-001 (which contains fexofenadine and naproxen) can reduce hangover symptoms after drinking alcohol. 47 healthy adults who drink moderately took the pill, a placebo, or each drug alone on different days, then rated their hangover severity. The goal was to see how the drug moves through the body and if it eases hangover symptoms.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
SJP-001 (a combination of fexofenadine and naproxen)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a treatment for hangover symptoms, making mornings after drinking less unpleasant.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase study with only 47 healthy people, so results may not apply to everyone. The effect on hangover severity is subjective and may not be significant compared to placebo.

Repeat testing at Screening is acceptable for out- of range vital signs. 3. Subject is a self-reported moderate drinker of alcohol, sometimes or regularly consuming 2 to 7 units of alcohol. Moderate drinking can be approximated with a BAC of 0.04 -0.11%. The 0.04% - 0.11% BAC correlates approximately with a 54-72 kg female drinking 2 to 5 drinks in 2 to 3 hours, respectively, and a 72-95 kg male drinking 3 to 7 drinks in 2 to 3 hours, respectively. 4. Subject has prequalified as likely hangover-sensitive based on pre-study questionnaire. 5. Body mass index between 18 and 32 kg/m2, inclusive. 6. Report a regular, habitual bedtime between 21:30 and 24:00. 7. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test upon admission for each treatment visit and be using an acceptable method of contraception. 8. Subject is capable of understanding the requirements of the study and to give written informed consent. 9. Subject is able to follow study instructions and is willing to complete all study visits and procedures. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Acute illness within 14 days prior to screening visit. 2. Allergic reaction within 7 days of screening visit. 3. Vaccination administration within 7 days of screening visit. 4. Clinically significant, unstable medical illness. 5. AST, ALT or Bilirubin value greater than \>1.5x ULN. Repeat testing at Screening is acceptable for out-of-range values following approval by the PI or designees. 6. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 80 mL/min (determined with an appropriate method by the reporting laboratory). Repeat testing at Screening is acceptable for out-of-range values following approval by the PI or designees. 7. Prothrombin time \> 1.3(s). Repeat testing at Screening is acceptable for out-of-range values following approval by the PI or designees. 8. Any abnormal laboratory value considered by the investigator to be clinically significant. 9. Evidence or history of clinically significant autoimmune, hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic or neurological disease that would make implementation of the protocol or interpretation of the study results difficult, or that would put the subject at risk by participating in the study in the opinion of the Investigator. 10. History of cancer or diabetes, (excluding subjects with resected basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma at the discretion of the PI). 11. Subject has a previous or current Substance-Related Disorder as defined by DSM-5. 12. A score of 8 or greater on the AUDIT scale. 13.

Positive alcohol Breathalyzer test at screening or check-in for any treatment visit. 15. Positive urine drug screen at screening or at check-in for any treatment visit. 16. Systolic blood pressure (BP) outside the range of 100 and 140 mmHg, diastolic BP outside the range of 50 and 90 mmHg, at Screening. For the purpose of qualifying any given participant for study participation, out-of-range vital signs may be repeated once. 17. Heart rate \> 100 beats per minute at screening. 18. Subjects who are unwilling to forgo caffeine consumption with or following dinner on each treatment night or who are unwilling to comply with study restrictions for prohibited medications/ foods throughout study participation. 19. Clinically significant psychiatric illness, including chronic psychiatric illness or the history or presence of any Axis I condition, including anxiety and/or depression within the past 6 months). 20. Any clinically significant abnormal finding on physical examination or vital signs. 21. Subject has previously experienced an allergic reaction or adverse event associated with aspirin, NSAIDs, or antihistamine usage. 22. Subject requires the use of any prescription medication 14 days prior to day 1, over the counter (OTC) oral pain medication(s) 7 days prior to first dose (paracetamol, oral contraceptives and vitamins are permissible), or any prescription medication or over the counter medication on the day of dosing during the study (oral contraceptives are permissible). This includes use during previous treatment periods during the study. 23. Women who are breastfeeding. 24. Any medical condition or any condition or situation that in the investigator's opinion may put the subject at significant risk, confound the study results, or interfere significantly with the subject's participation in the study. 25.

Participant is unwilling to refrain from strenuous exercise (including weightlifting) 24 hours prior to admissions. 27.
