Relative Bioavailability of Oral Suspension of Rivaroxaban Compared to Standard Tablet

January 20, 2017 updated by: Bayer

Single-dose, Open-label, Randomized, 4-way Crossover Study to Compare 10 mg of an Oral Suspension of Rivaroxaban Under Fasting (2 Different Batches) and 20 mg of an Oral Suspension of Rivaroxaban Under Fed Conditions to 10 mg of an Immediate Release Tablet Under Fasting Conditions in Healthy Subjects

Rivaroxaban is a substance developed for use in the treatment of blood coagulation disorders. Thrombosis (blood clots) can occur as a result of excessive coagulation activity in the blood vessels. Excessive coagulation activity can occur in children as well, and rivaroxaban is therefore being developed for the treatment of thromboembolic events in children and adolescents. As small children are often unable to swallow tablets, an oral suspension (mixture of a liquid containing finely distributed solids) has been developed which allows dosing according to body weight. The objective of this trial is to compare the bioavailability (proportion of a substance that remains available unchanged in the blood circulation) of a rivaroxaban oral solution with that of the rivaroxaban tablet approved for treatment. In order to evaluate the potential influence of food, the oral suspension containing 20 mg rivaroxaban will be taken after consuming food. In addition, the pharmacokinetics (concentrations of the drug and breakdown products (metabolites) in blood), safety and tolerability will be assessed.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 51 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Male

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Healthy male subjects
  • Age: 18 to 55 years (inclusive) at the first screening examination

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Incompletely cured pre-existing diseases for which it can be assumed that the absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination and effects of the study drugs will not be normal
  • Known coagulation disorders (eg von Willebrand's disease, hemophilia)
  • Known disorders with increased bleeding risk (eg periodontosis, hemorrhoids, acute gastritis, peptic ulcer)
  • Known sensitivity to common causes of bleeding (eg nasal)
