Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of multiple 40 milligram (mg) doses of JNJ-42847922 on the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple doses of a combination oral contraceptive (OC) containing ethinyl estradiol (EE) and levonorgestrel (LN) in healthy female adult partcipants.

Oral Contraceptive Tablet + JNJ-42847922Ethinyl Estradiol + LevonorgestrelAll participants will receive one oral contraceptive (OC) tablet containing ethinyl estradiol (EE) 0.03 milligram (mg) and levonorgestrel (LN) 0.15 mg once daily on Days 1 to 21 for both cycle 1 and cycle 2. In addition, in cycle 2, participants will receive 40 mg of JNJ-42847922 once daily on Days 14 to 21. Participants will not be given OC tablet on Days 22 to 28 during cycle 1 and cycle 2 (tablet-free period).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) in Cycle 1Cycle 1: Predose (Day 21), 30 minute (min), 1 hour (h), 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 14h, 18h, 20h, 24h, 28h, 36h, 48h and 72h Postdose

The Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) in Cycle 2Cycle 2: Predose (Day 21), 30 minute (min), 1 hour (h), 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 14h, 18h, 20h, 24h, 28h, 36h, 48h and 72h Postdose

The Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 24 Hours (AUC[0-24]) at Cycle 2Cycle 2: Predose (Day 21), 30 minute (min), 1 hour (h), 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 14h, 18h, 20h, Day 22: 24h Postdose

The AUC (0-24) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 hours.

Trough Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) in Cycle 1Cycle1: Predose (Day 21)

The (Ctrough) is the observed plasma concentration just prior to the beginning of a dosing interval.

Trough Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) in Cycle 2Cycle 2: Predose (Day 21)

The (Ctrough) is the observed plasma concentration just prior to the beginning of a dosing interval.

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to 24 Hours (AUC[0-24]) at Cycle 1Cycle 1: Predose (Day 21), 30 minute (min), 1 hour (h), 2h, 2.5h, 3h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h, 12h, 14h, 18h, 20h, Day 22: 24h Postdose

The AUC (0-24) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 hours.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and TolerabilityUp to 87 Days

An adverse event is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.
