A Study of Darunavir in the Presence of Cobicistat When Administered as a Fixed Dose Combination Under Fed Conditions

January 31, 2025 updated by: Janssen Research & Development, LLC

A Single-dose, Open-label, Randomized, Crossover Pivotal Bioequivalence Study in Healthy Participants to Assess the Bioequivalence of Darunavir 675 mg in the Presence of 150 mg Cobicistat When Administered as a Fixed Dose Combination (Darunavir/Cobicistat) Compared to the Co-administration of the Separate Agents (Darunavir and Cobicistat) Under Fed Conditions

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the single-dose Pharmacokinetic (PK) and bioequivalence of darunavir (DRV) in the presence of cobicistat (COBI) when administered as a scored fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet (DRV/COBI) compared to the co-administration as the separate available tablet formulations (DRV and COBI), under fed conditions in healthy participants.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Maximum Observed Analyte Concentration (Cmax) of Darunavir (DRV)
Time Frame: Predose, up to 72 hours post dose (up to Day 4)
Cmax is defined as the maximum observed analyte concentration of DRV.
Predose, up to 72 hours post dose (up to Day 4)
Area Under the Analyte Concentration-time Curve from time Zero to Last Quantifiable time (AUC[0-last]) of DRV
Time Frame: Predose, up to 72 hours post dose (up to Day 4)
AUC(0-last) is the area under the analyte concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of the last measurable (non-below quantification limit [non-BQL]) concentration, calculated by linear-linear trapezoidal summation.
Predose, up to 72 hours post dose (up to Day 4)
Area Under the Analyte Concentration-time Curve from Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC[0-infinity]) of DRV
Time Frame: Predose, up to 72 hours post dose (up to Day 4)
AUC (0-infinity) is the area under the analyte concentration-time curve from time zero to infinite time, calculated as the sum of AUC(0-last) and C(last)/lambda(z), wherein AUC(0-last) is area under the analyte concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable time, Clast is the last observed measurable (non-BQL) concentration, and lambda(z) is elimination rate constant.
Predose, up to 72 hours post dose (up to Day 4)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability
Time Frame: Up to 6 weeks
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.
Up to 6 weeks
Cmax of Cobicistat (COBI)
Time Frame: Predose, up to 72 hours post dose (up to Day 4)
