A Pharmacokinetic (PK) Study Evaluating Naproxen and Esomeprazole Plasma Levels

December 19, 2008 updated by: POZEN

A Randomized, Open-Label, 4-Way Crossover Study to Evaluate Naproxen and Esomeprazole Plasma Levels in Healthy Subjects Following Oral Administration of PN 400, Enteric-Coated Naproxen 500mg Plus Enteric-Coated Esomeprazole 20mg, Enteric-Coated Naproxen 500mg Alone, and Enteric-Coated Esomeprazole 20mg Alone.

A pharmacokinetic study evaluating naproxen and esomeprazole blood levels in 4 treatments, each containing one or both components.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study is being conducted to assess the relative bioavailability of naproxen and esomeprazole from a single dose of PN 400 (delayed-release naproxen 500mg / immediate-release esomeprazole 20mg), enteric-coated naproxen 500mg co-administered with enteric-coated esomeprazole 20mg, enteric-coated naproxen 500mg administered alone, and enteric-coated esomeprazole 20mg administered alone.
