About this study

The effect of the co-administration of verapamil on the steady state PK of solifenacin succinate and tamsulosin HCl OCAS (Oral Controlled Absorption System) is evaluated in this study.

Verapamil has been chosen to represent the effect of moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors on the combined administration of solifenacin and tamsulosin given as combination tablet EC905.

Subjects are admitted to the clinic on Day -1. From Days 1-10, they receive one daily dose of EC905 to obtain steady state, followed by 20 days (Days 11-30) combined dosing of EC905 and verapamil.

On Day 10 a 24-hour PK profile is obtained for solifenacin/tamsulosin. After the last dosing on Day 30, a post-dose 24-hour PK profile for solifenacin/tamsulosin and verapamil is obtained.

Additionally, vital signs, safety ECG (Electrocardiogram) measurements, safety laboratory assessments, adverse events and concomitant medications are monitored throughout the investigational period.

Subjects return for an ESV (End of Study Visit) 10 days after the last dosing.

Primary outcomes

  1. Pharmacokinetics of tamsulosin OCAS in plasma: AUCtau

    Time frame: Predose, Days 1, and 7-10

    AUCtau (area under the plasma concentration-time curve during the time interval between consecutive dosing)

  2. Pharmacokinetics of solifenacin in plasma: AUCtau

    Time frame: Predose, Days 1, and 7-10

    AUCtau (area under the plasma concentration-time curve during the time interval between consecutive dosing)

  3. Pharmacokinetics of tamsulosin OCAS in plasma: Cmax

    Time frame: Predose, Days 1, and 7-10

    Cmax (maximum concentration)

  4. Pharmacokinetics of solifenacin in plasma: Cmax

    Time frame: Predose, Days 1, and 7-10

    Cmax (maximum concentration)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Pharmacokinetics of combined doses of tamsulosin OCAS and solifenacin in steady state, and verapamil

    Time frame: Predose, Days 27-30

    Plasma: Ctrough (trough concentration), tmax (time to attain Cmax), CL/F (apparent total body clearance), PTR (peak trough ratio) Urine: AUCtau, Cmax, Ctrough, CL/F, tmax

  2. Safety and tolerability of the interaction between combined doses of tamsulosin OCAS and solifenacin, and verapamil

    Time frame: Screening to ESV (10 days after the last dosing)

    AE (adverse events), clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, ECG, physical examination
