A Drug-Drug Interaction Study in Healthy Volunteers of the Effects of Tucatinib on Metformin

A Phase 1, Open-Label, Fixed-Sequence, Drug-Drug Interaction Study to Evaluate the Effects of Tucatinib of the Pharmacokinetics of Metformin in Healthy Male and Female Subjects

This study is being done to look at how tucatinib might affect the way another drug (metformin) works. It will look at healthy volunteers and how tucatinib affects how the body absorbs metformin. This will help us find out whether tucatinib is safe to give together with metformin. The study will also look at how tucatinib affects how the kidneys work.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Drug-drug Interaction
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Tucatinib; Drug: Metformin; Drug: Iohexol

Detailed Description

This is a single center, fixed-sequence, drug-drug interaction study to assess the effects of multiple oral doses of tucatinib on the pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose of metformin in healthy subjects. The primary objective of the study is to assess the effects of tucatinib on the single-dose PK of metformin. Secondary objectives of the study are to (1) assess the safety and tolerability of metformin when coadministered with tucatinib and (2) assess the effects of tucatinib on renal function using iohexol as glomerular filtration rate (GFR) marker.
