Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Scientific Terminology Rheumatoid Arthritis, Healthy Female Volunteers, Pharmacokinetics, Oral Contraceptive, Drug-drug Interaction
Laymen Terminology Level of Oral Contraceptive in Blood, Oral Contraceptive, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Drug -Drug Interaction
Interventions
Drug: Microgynon® 30 (Oral contraceptive)
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT01276262
Lead Sponsor
AstraZeneca
Brief Summary

A crossover study to assess the effect of repeated doses of fostamatinib on the levels of oral contraceptive (Microgynon® 30) in the blood of healthy female subjects. The study will consist of a screening period of up to 35 days, followed by 2 treatment periods (28 days each) of an oral contraceptive (Microgynon® 30) in the absence and presence of fostamatinib. The study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of fostamatinib in combination with an oral contraceptive

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To assess the effects of repeated doses of Fostamatinib on the pharmacokinetics of Microgynon ®30 by assessment of Cssmax and AUCss of ethinyl estradiol (EE), levonorgestrel on Day 21From predose until Day 22 of each Treatment period
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To characterise the PD of progesterone, LH, FSH, and SHBG, following dosing with monophasic oral contraceptive (Microgynon® 30) alone and following coadministration with fostamatinibFrom predose until Day 22 of each Treatment period

PD = pharmacodynamics, LH = luteinising hormone, FSH = follicle stimulating, SHBG = Sex hormone binding globulin

To determine R-406 plasma concentration-time profile and resulting PK parameters including AUCss, Cssmax, and tmaxssFrom pre-dose until 12 hours following final dose on Day 21
To determine the safety and tolerability of fostamatinib in combination with an oral contraceptive (Microgynon ®30): adverse event monitoring, vital signs, physical examinations, clinical laboratory tests, ECGsScreening, treatment periods 1 and 2, Follow up
