A Clinical Study of the Interactions Between Azvudine Tablets (FNC) and Tenofovir Alafenol Fumarate Tablets (TAF)

Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Healthy
• Interventions: Drug: Azvudine tablets(FNC) and Tenofovir Alafenol Fumarate Tablets (TAF)

• Registration Number: NCT07002268
• Lead Sponsor: Henan Genuine Biotech Co., Ltd.

Brief Summary

Azvudine(FNC)，a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, make itself a better candidate to be co-formulated in other anti-HIV therapies, thus to improve patient's compliance. FNC is a broad-spectrum RNA virus inhibitor that inhibits the novel coronavirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp).

This is a clinical study to evaluate the Interactions between Azvudine Tablets (FNC) and Tenofovir Alafenol Fumarate Tablets (TAF) in healthy subjects. This is a single-center, randomized, open-label, three-cycles, three-treatment crossover clinical trial. Subjects was administered orally for 7 consecutive days each cycle, and the washout period between each cycle was 10 days. Biological sample collection and safety examination were performed.
