CYP3A4 Activity and Mineral Homeostasis

Early Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Vitamin D and Calcium Homeostasis
Interventions
Other: Grapefruit Juice
Other: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT02019875
Lead Sponsor
University of Washington
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether changes in the activity of the enzyme CYP3A4 can change the Vitamin D and bone mineral homeostasis.

Detailed Description

Healthy volunteers will receive one of six interventions for 14 days (determined by randomization):a). 200 mL of water once a day; b) rifampin 600 mg once a day; c) 200 mL of grapefruit juice once a day for 8 days plus rifampin 600 mg once a day for 14 days; d) clarithromycin 250 mg twice a day; f) clarithromycin 250 mg twice a day plus rifampin 600 mg once a day.
