A Single Oral Dose Study to Compare the Bioavailability Between Two Different Tablet Formulations and Assess if There is a Food Effect With the New Formulation

A Phase I, Single-Dose, Open-Label, Three-Period, Randomized, Crossover Study to Compare the Relative Bioavailability Between Two Tablet Formulations of ASP015K and to Assess the Food Effect on a New Formulation in Healthy Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to determine the bioavailability and pharmacokinetics between two different formulations of ASP015K tablets and determine the food effect on the absorption of the new formulation.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Healthy Subjects; Bioavailability of ASP015K; Pharmacokinetics of ASP015K
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: ASP015K

Detailed Description

Eligible subjects will be admitted on Day -2 and remain confined on the unit for 20 days. Each subject will receive a single dose of study drug per the defined treatment periods on the morning of Day 1, Day 8 and Day 15. There will be a minimum of 7 days between each consecutive dose group.

For Treatment A, Formulation 1 tablets will be administered within 30 minutes after the start of a standard FDA moderate-fat breakfast. Treatment B, Formulation 2 tablets will be administered in a fasted state. For Treatment C, Formulation 2 tablets will be administered within 30 minutes after the start of a standard FDA moderate-fat breakfast.

Any subject discontinuing the study prior to completion should have all end of study evaluations completed
