GroupInterventionDescription
Pre-Treatment, Treatment Cycles A & BCombined Oral ContraceptivePre-Treatment: Two cycles of a combined oral contraceptive (COC) taken orally once daily for 21 days followed by 7 COC-free days. Treatment Period A: COC containing taken orally once daily for 21 days followed by 7 COC-free days. Treatment Period B: COC taken orally once daily for 21 days, with once daily oral 200 mg AQX-1125 (2 x 100 mg tablets) co-administered from Day 13 to 21, followed by 7 COC-free days

Treatment Period A: COC containing taken orally once daily for 21 days followed by 7 COC-free days. Treatment Period B: COC taken orally once daily for 21 days, with once daily oral 200 mg AQX-1125 (2 x 100 mg tablets) co-administered from Day 13 to 21, followed by 7 COC-free days
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of COC taken with AQX-11258 Weeks (from start of treatment period A to completion of treatment period B)

To assess the effect of multiple doses of 200 mg AQX-1125 once daily (qd) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the COC

Time to attain maximum observed plasma concentration (tmax) of COC taken with AQX-11258 Weeks (from start of treatment period A to completion of treatment period B)

To assess the effect of multiple doses of 200 mg AQX-1125 once daily (qd) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the COC

Area under the plasma concentration-time curve up to 24 hours (AUC0-24) of COC taken with AQX-11258 Weeks (from start of treatment period A to completion of treatment period B)

To assess the effect of multiple doses of 200 mg AQX-1125 once daily (qd) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the COC

Terminal elimination rate constant (Kel) of COC taken with AQX-11258 Weeks (from start of treatment period A to completion of treatment period B)

To assess the effect of multiple doses of 200 mg AQX-1125 once daily (qd) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the COC

Terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) of COC taken with AQX-11258 Weeks (from start of treatment period A to completion of treatment period B)

To assess the effect of multiple doses of 200 mg AQX-1125 once daily (qd) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the COC

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety and tolerability of AQX-1125 200 mg qd administered with the COC16 weeks (from start of pre-treatment cycle 1 to completion of treatment period B)

Safety and tolerability will be assessed by the severity and frequency of adverse events, which will include any abnormal clinically significant vital signs, laboratory tests, electrocardiogram and physical examination findings
