Bioavailability of Apixaban Sprinkle Compared to Apixaban Capsules

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy Volunteers
Registration Number
NCT03509883
Lead Sponsor
Bristol-Myers Squibb
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the absorption of apixaban (BMS-562247) into the bloodstream of healthy volunteers, when administered as sprinkle capsules compared to tablets. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 treatment sequences and will receive a single oral dose of apixaban twice during the course of the study.
