- Brief Summary
The objective of this study was to establish the relative bioavailability of a new soft gelatin capsule (SGC) formulation of BI 201335 NA compared to the current solution formulation (powder in bottle, PIB) for two doses (40 mg, 240 mg) in a parallel, two-way cross-over study design.
