Conditions
Healthy
Interventions
Drug: BIBW 2992 MA2
Registration Number
NCT02171715
Lead Sponsor
Boehringer Ingelheim
Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study was to investigate the relative bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of 20 mg BIBW 2992 administered as film-coated immediate release tablet (final formulation, i.e. phase III/to-be-marketed formulation) to healthy subjects in comparison with the drinking solution and in comparison with the trial formulation II tablet, which was administered in phase II clinical trials and also partly in phase I trials.
