Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Healthy
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Pitavastatin; Drug: JNJ-63623872

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1, open-label (identity of study drug will be known to participant and study staff), sequential study in healthy volunteers to investigate the potential Pharmacokinetics (PK) effects of JNJ-872 on pitavastatin. The study consists of Screening Phase (28 days), Treatment Phase (Day 1 - Day 12), Follow up (10-14 days and 30-35 days after last study drug intake or drop). The total duration of the study will be approximately 2 months. Participants will sequentially receive the following treatment: a single oral dose of pitavastatin 1 milligram (mg) on Day 1; JNJ-63623872 600 mg twice daily on Days 4 through 12, with a single oral dose of pitavastatin 1 mg administered in the morning of Day 9. All study drug intakes will be taken orally, under fed conditions (within approximately 10 minutes after completion of a meal). Blood samples will be collected to assess pharmacokinetic parameters. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.
