A Study in Healthy Men and Women to Test Which Effects Donepezil and BI 425809 Have on Each Other

A Study to Investigate the Effects of Donepezil on the Pharmacokinetics of BI 425809 and Vice Versa in Healthy Male and Female Subjects (Open-label, Two-treatment, Two-period, One Fixed Sequence Cross-over Design)

The main objective of Part 1of this trial is to investigate the effect of co-administration of multiple doses of donepezil on the single-dose pharmacokinetics of BI 425809 in healthy subjects. In Part 2 the main objective is the investigation of the effect of co-administration of multiple doses of BI 425809 on the single-dose pharmacokinetics of donepezil in healthy subjects.

• Any evidence of a concomitant disease assessed as clinically relevant by the investigator
• Gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic, immunological or hormonal disorders
• Cholecystectomy or other surgery of the gastrointestinal tract that could interfere with the pharmacokinetics of the trial medication (except appendectomy or simple hernia repair)

• History of relevant orthostatic hypotension, fainting spells, or blackouts
• Chronic or relevant acute infections

• Use of drugs within 30 days of planned administration of trial medication that might reasonably influence the results of the trial (including drugs that cause QT/QTc interval prolongation)
• Intake of an investigational drug in another clinical trial within 60 days of planned administration of investigational drug in the current trial, or concurrent participation in another clinical trial in which investigational drug is administered
• Smoker (more than 10 cigarettes or 3 cigars or 3 pipes per day)

• Alcohol abuse (consumption of more than 20 g per day for females and 30 g per day for males)

• Intention to perform excessive physical activities within one week prior to the administration of trial medication or during the trial
• Inability to comply with the dietary regimen of the trial site
• A marked baseline prolongation of QT/QTc interval (such as QTc intervals that are repeatedly greater than 450 ms in males or repeatedly greater than 470 ms in females) or any other relevant Electrocardiogram (ECG) finding at screening
• A history of additional risk factors for Torsade de Pointes (such as heart failure, hypokalaemia, or family history of Long QT Syndrome)
• Subject is assessed as unsuitable for inclusion by the investigator, for instance, because the subject is not considered able to understand and comply with study requirements, or has a condition that would not allow safe participation in the study
• Further exclusion criteria apply
