Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy Subjects
Interventions
Dietary Supplement: Boost Plus
Registration Number
NCT02034591
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the bioavailability of Apixaban oral solution administered through an Nasogastric Tube (NGT) in the presence of Boost® Plus and Apixaban administered as crushed tablet through a nasogastric tube relative to Apixaban solution administered orally in healthy subjects.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adjusted Geometric Mean of the Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of ApixabanPre-dose and 0.25, 0.50, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 hours post-dose for each intervention

Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) is measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL)

Adjusted Geometric Mean of the Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) From Time Zero Extrapolated to Infinite Time AUC(INF) of ApixabanPre-dose and 0.25, 0.50, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 hours post-dose for each intervention

AUC(INF) is measured in nanogram hours per milliliter (ng\*h/mL)

Adjusted Geometric Mean of the Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration [AUC(0-T)] of ApixabanPre-dose and 0.25, 0.50, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 hours post-dose for each intervention

AUC(0-T) is measured in nanogram hours per milliliter (ng\*h/mL)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod

AUC(0-T) is measured in nanogram hours per milliliter (ng\*h/mL)

Adjusted Geometric Mean of the Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero Extrapolated to Infinite Time [AUC(INF)] of ApixabanPre-dose and 0.25, 0.50, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 hours post-dose for each intervention

AUC(INF) is measured in nanogram hours per milliliter (ng\*h/mL)

Adjusted Geometric Mean of the Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of ApixabanPre-dose and 0.25, 0.50, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 hours post-dose for each intervention

Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) is measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL)

Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Treatment-Related AEs, Deaths or Discontinuation of Study Drug Due to AEsDay 1 to 30 days after last dose of study drug

AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE=a medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or drug dependency/abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization. Treatment-related=having certain, probable, possible or missing relationship to study drug. Death=during the study and up to 28 days past study discontinuation. The select AEs were determined using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA, v15.1) and graded using the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), Version 3.0

Number of Participants With Marked Laboratory AbnormalitiesDay 1 to 30 days after last dose of study drug

Marked laboratory abnormalities were defined as laboratory assessments meeting the following investigator-specified criteria: Leukocytes \>1.2\* upper limits of normal (ULN) , Basophils \>3%, Eosinophils \>1.5\*ULN, Blood Urine \>=2, Red Blood Cell (RBC) Urine \>=2, White Blood Cell (WBC) Urine \>=2
