About this study

This a 3-part drug-drug interaction (DDI) study.

All the 3 parts of the study includes:

  • Screening Period: 27 days (Day -28 through Day -2)
  • Two Treatment Periods:
  • Part 1: Treatment Period 1 (Day -1 through Day 8) and Treatment Period 2 (Day 1 through Day 12)
  • Part 2: Treatment Period 1 (Day -1 through Day 7) and Treatment Period 2 (Day 1 through Day 10)
