The tolerability of 311C90, a novel, selective and highly effective 5-
HT1D receptor agonist in development for the acute treatment of migrai
ne, has been evaluated in a number of clinical pharmacology and patien
t studies across the dose range 1-50 mg. 311C90 has been well tolerate
d across the entire dose range and no clinically relevant changes in r
outine laboratory parameters, blood pressure or ECG recordings have be
en observed, Adverse experiences reported are generally dose related,
mild to moderate and resolve spontaneously, Chest-related symptoms occ
ur infrequently and the cardiovascular safety profile of 311C90 is con
sidered particularly favourable, 311C90, therefore, possesses a desira
ble safety profile which is well suited to broad-based outpatient admi
nstration.
