Details and patient eligibility

About

This is a two-part study. Part 1 will evaluate relative bioavailability of temsavir (TMR) following single dose administration of the reference fostemsavir (FTR) compared to two low-dose ER tablet formulations of FTR. In Part 2, the effect of food on the bioavailability of TMR will be assessed on the selected low-dose ER tablet formulation from Part 1.

Enrollment: 32 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 50 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria

• Alanine transaminase (ALT) >1.5x upper limit of normal (ULN).
• Total bilirubin >1.5xULN (isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if total bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%).

• Participation in the study would result in loss of blood or blood products in excess of 500 milliliters (mL) within 56 days.
• Exposure to more than 4 new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first dosing day.
• Current enrollment or past participation within the last 30 days or five half-lives whichever is longer, before signing of consent in any other clinical study involving an investigational study intervention or any other type of medical research.
• Presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) [or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb)] at screening or within 3 months prior to first dose of study intervention.
• Positive hepatitis C antibody test result at screening or within 3 months prior to first dose of study intervention.
• Positive hepatitis C Ribonucleic acid (RNA) test result at screening or within 3 months prior to first dose of study intervention.
• Positive Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 and -2 antigen/antibody immunoassay.
• Cotinine levels indicative of smoking or history or regular use of tobacco- or nicotine-containing products within 6 months prior to screening.
• Regular alcohol consumption within 6 months of the study defined as: An average weekly intake of >14 drinks for males or >7 drinks for females.
• Regular use of known drugs of abuse.
• Sensitivity to heparin or heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.
• Sensitivity to any of the study interventions, or components thereof, or drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or medical monitor, contraindicates participation in the study.
• A participant with a history of beta-lactam allergy, regardless of severity/seriousness.
