- 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
Name Time Method Number of subjects with drug related adverse events 17 days Percentage of subjects with drug related adverse events 17 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 treatment 7 days
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Degree of phototoxic effects by phototoxic index 7 days
