Study Evaluating the Effect of Food on the Pharmacokinetics of Palovarotene and the Effect of Palovarotene on the Pharmacokinetics of the CYP3A4 Substrate Midazolam in Two Cohorts of Healthy Adult Subjects

Study to evaluate the effect of food and the effect of swallowing capsule whole versus sprinkling on apple sauce on the pharmacokinetics (PK)/bioavailability of palovarotene, and evaluate the effect of palovarotene on the PK of the CYP3A4 substrate midazolam.

Primary outcomes

  1. Maximum (peak) observed plasma drug concentration

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13.

  2. Time to reach maximum (peak) (t max) observed plasma concentration following drug administration

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13

  3. Area under the plasma concentration time (AUC 0-last) curve from time zero to the last quantifiable time point, calculated by linear-log trapezoidal summation

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13

  4. Area under the plasma concentration time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC 0-infinity)

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13

    calculated by linear-log trapezoidal summation and extrapolated to infinity by addition of the last quantifiable plasma concentration divided by the elimination rate constant

  5. Apparent terminal disposition rate constant/terminal rate constant yz

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13

    determined by linear regression of the terminal points of the log-linear plasma concentration-time curve

  6. Apparent terminal elimination half-life (t1/2)

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13

  7. Apparent volume of distribution after oral administration (Vd/F)

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13

  8. Apparent total clearance of the drug from plasma after oral administration (cLF)

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13

  9. Area under the plasma concentration time curve from time zero to 24 hours only for DDI cohort

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 15, 16

  10. The last concentration before the next study drug administration at steady state for DDI cohort

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 15, 16

  11. Maximum (peak) observed plasma drug concentration at steady state for DDI cohort

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 15, 16

  12. Time to reach maximum (peak) observed plasma concentration following drug administration at steady state for DDI cohort

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 15, 16

  13. Minimum observed plasma concentration at steady state, taken as the lowest plasma concentration during dosing interval for DDI cohort

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 15, 16

  14. Accumulation ratio for DDI cohort

    Time frame: Days 1, 2, 15, 16

Secondary outcomes

  1. Occurrence of Adverse Events (AEs)

    Time frame: from baseline until the end of study (16 days)
