A Study to Investigate the Phototoxic Potential of Faldaprevir

Phase 1

Conditions
Healthy
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02114671
Lead Sponsor
Boehringer Ingelheim
Brief Summary

To investigate the potential of Faldaprevir to induce skin phototoxicity, immediate or delayed type, to UV light and visible light in healthy male and female subjects. To investigate the degree, wavelength dependency, severity, pigmentation and morphology of the phototoxic effects. The persistence of the phototoxic susceptibility will be explored following cessation of study medication. Within a sunscreen sub-study, the efficacy of commercially available high factor sunscreen will also be assessed in terms of its potential to prevent any phototoxic skin responses seen. The safety and tolerability of Faldaprevir will also be assessed.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of subjects with drug related adverse events17 days
Percentage of subjects with drug related adverse events17 days
Change in minimum erythema dose (MED) at each wavelength tested, before and during treatment. The change will be quantified by the phototoxic index at 24 hrs (delayed erythema) derived by dividing the baseline MED by that during treatment7 days
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Degree of phototoxic effects by phototoxic index7 days
