Effect of Food on Bioavailability of Modified Release Formulations of Imatinib

This study will evaluate the effect of food on the relative bioavailability of a single dose of imatinib given as a 800 mg modified release tablet, compared to twice-daily doses of 400 mg film-coated tablets. There will be a 8 day wash out phase between treatments and a 1 week safety period at the end of the study. Each participant will receive all four treatments.

Treatment and study plan

Imatinib

Drug

Other names: STI571

Primary outcomes

  1. To compare the bioavailability of Modified Release formulations to 400 mg immediate release (IR) tablet when administered twice-daily (both given with a low fat meal).

Secondary outcomes

  1. To compare the relative bioavailability of a single daily 800 mg dose of modified release formulations with a high fat meal and a low fat (regular) meal, to modified release formulations after over-night fasting in healthy volunteers.

  2. To compare safety and tolerability of the 800 mg daily dose modified release formulations with or without food
