- Registration Number
- NCT01845194
- Lead Sponsor

- Any major acute disease or fever (Temp. > 37.5 C)
- Any major gastrointestinal disease and any gastrointestinal disorder that is expected to significantly interfere with the pharmacokinetics of the study drug
- Gastrointestinal surgery which may interfere with the pharmacokinetics of the study drug (except appendectomy or herniotomy)
- Taking any medication within 7 days before or during the trial with the following exceptions: Single doses of mild analgesics (e.g. aspirin, paracetamol, ibuprofen) may have been taken except for the time from 6 hours prior to taking the test drug until 24 hours after taking the test drug. Oral contraceptive drug used will be documented but will not be an exclusion criterion. Other medication might be allowed on single case basis if considered necessary for the subject's safety and well-being.
- History of alcohol and/or drug addiction and/or any abusive use of medicaments and/or positive drug screen
- Any other findings that could compromise the safety of the participant or the quality of the study-results
- History of severe hypersensitivity reactions and anaphylaxis
- If hypersensitivity or allergic reactions to one of the IMPs is known so enrolment is possible but application of the concerned IMP must not be allowed in all siblings (e.g. allergy to sulphonamide prohibits specifically the application of torsemide)
- Clinically significant diseases as judged by the investigator
- Body temperature > 37.5°C prior to drug application
- Known infection with HIV, Hepatitis B (HBsAg) or Hepatitis C
- Inability or unwillingness to avoid any intake of alcohol from 48h prior to until 72hours after IMP application
- Pregnancy (positive pregnancy test during screening and/or treatment)
- Lactation or unreliable contraception in female subjects with child-bearing potential
- Inability or unwillingness to provide informed consent and to abide by the requirements of the study

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method plasma drug concentrations up to 24 h after drug application Up to 8 (± 60 min.) hour after each application of combined drugs (treatment period 1 and treatment period 2) blood and urine collection is continuously performed and drug concentrations as specified in the sections "study arms" and "interventions" are measured. This is repeated once 24 hours after each drug application.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method PK and metabolic ratios up to 24 h after drug application PK and metabolic ratios (MR, ratio between parent compound and metabolite) of the test substrates as specified in the sections "study arms" and "interventions" are measured.
variants in known genetic traits up to 24 h after drug application New variants in known genetic traits are investigated and new genetic traits are identified.
design applicability 54 months after study start To evaluate the applicability of the repeated measure design for other, non drug-related genetic traits, such as blood coagulation pathways.
