Relative Bioavailability and Food Effect for Darunavir/Cobicistat/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide Fixed Dose Combination

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and relative bioavailability of Emtricitabine (FTC) and Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) when administered as a fixed-dose combination (FDC) with darunavir (DRV) and cobicistat (COBI) (darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) relative to administration as an FDC with Elvitegravir (EVG) and COBI (Elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide), under fed conditions in healthy subjects (Panel 1); evaluate the single-dose pharmacokinetics and relative bioavailability of DRV, COBI, FTC and TAF when administered as an FDC (D/C/F/TAF) or as separate agents (D+C+FTC/TAF), under fed conditions in healthy subjects (Panel 2) and to evaluate the impact of food (fasting or high-fat breakfast) on the single-dose pharmacokinetics of DRV, COBI, FTC, and TAF when administered as an FDC (D/C/F/TAF) in healthy subjects (Panel 3).

Key information

About this study

This is a Phase 1, 3-panel, open-label, randomized, 2-way crossover study in healthy subjects. Healthy subjects will be divided over 3 panels (Panel 1, 2 and 3). Subjects will be randomized within each panel. In each panel, during 2 subsequent sessions, each subject will receive 2 treatments (Treatments A and B in Panel 1, Treatments C and D in Panel 2, and Treatments E and F in Panel 3). Each treatment is defined as follows: Treatment A: single oral dose of D/C/F/TAF 800/150/200/10 milligram (mg) as FDC tablet under fed conditions (standardized regular breakfast); Treatment B: single oral dose of E/C/F/TAF 150/150/200/10 mg as FDC tablet under fed conditions; Treatment C: single oral dose of D/C/F/TAF 800/150/200/10 mg as FDC tablet under fed conditions; Treatment D: single oral dose of DRV as 800-mg tablet, FTC/TAF as 200/10 mg tablet and COBI 150 mg tablet under fed conditions. Treatment E: single oral dose of D/C/F/TAF 800/150/200/10 mg as FDC tablet, under fasted condition and Treatment F: single oral dose of D/C/F/TAF 800/150/200/10 mg tablet, with a standardized high-fat breakfast. Each treatment will be separated by a washout period of at least 7 days. Primarily pharmacokinetic parameters will be assessed. Subjects' safety will be assessed throughout.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subject must be a non-smoker for at least 3 months prior to selection

This determination must be recorded in the subject's source documents and initialed by the Investigator
  • Subject must be healthy on the basis of clinical laboratory tests performed at screening. If the results of the biochemistry panel, hematology, or urinalysis are outside the normal reference ranges, the subject may be included only if the abnormalities or deviations from normal are not listed in the exclusion criteria, and the Investigator judges they are not clinically significant. This determination must be recorded in the subject's source documents and initialed by the Investigator

Primary outcomes

  1. Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Darunavir (DRV), cobicistat (COBI), Emtricitabine (FTC) and Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF)

    Time frame: Up to 72 Hours after study drug administration

    The Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Time (AUC [0-last]) of Darunavir (DRV), cobicistat (COBI), Emtricitabine (FTC) and Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF)

    Time frame: Up to 72 Hours after study drug administration

    The AUC (0-last) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable time.

  3. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC[0-infinity]) of Darunavir (DRV), cobicistat (COBI), Emtricitabine (FTC) and Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF)

    Time frame: Up to 72 Hours after study drug administration

    The AUC (0-infinity) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinite time, calculated as the sum of AUC(last) and C(last)/lambda(z); wherein AUC(last) is area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable time, C(last) is the last observed quantifiable concentration, and lambda(z) is elimination rate constant.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Subjects with Adverse Events

    Time frame: From signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF) up to 10 days after last study drug administration

    An adverse event is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.

Other outcomes

  1. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Darunavir (DRV), cobicistat (COBI), Emtricitabine (FTC) and Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF)

    Time frame: Up to 72 Hours after study drug administration

    Time frame: Up to 72 Hours after study drug administration

    Lambda(z) is first-order elimination rate constant associated with the terminal portion of the curve, determined as the negative slope of the terminal log linear phase of the drug concentration-time curve.

    The elimination half-life (t1/2) is the time measured for the plasma concentration to decrease by 1 half to its original concentration. It is associated with the terminal slope of the semi logarithmic drug concentration-time curve, and is calculated as 0.693/lambda(z).

  5. Time to Last Quantifiable Plasma Concentration (Tlast) of Darunavir (DRV), cobicistat (COBI), Emtricitabine (FTC) and Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF)

    Time frame: Up to 72 Hours after study drug administration
