About

The objective of the study is to characterize the effect of multiple doses of ASP015K on the pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose or a single intravenous (IV) dose of tacrolimus.

Full description

This is a 2-part study. Part 1 is a 2-sequence, drug interaction study to determine the effect of two different ASP015K doses on the pharmacokinetics of oral tacrolimus. Part 2 is a 1-sequence drug interaction study to determine the effect of the higher dose ASP015K on the pharmacokinetics of IV tacrolimus.

Enrollment: 40 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 55 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
