A Study to Assess the Effect of Multiple Doses of AZD5718 on Pharmacokinetics of Oral Midazolam in Healthy Subjects
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In clinical practice, AZD5718 will be co-administered with CYP3A substrates. Therefore, it is important to determine the impact of AZD5718 on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of CYP3A4 substrates. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of AZD5718 on the PK of midazolam, a known sensitive CYP3A4 substrate.

| Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
This is a Phase 1, fixed sequence, open-label study in healthy subjects, performed at a single study center. This study will consist of 3 treatment periods to assess the PK of midazolam when administered alone and in combination with multiple doses of AZD5718.
The study will comprise:
-
A screening period of maximum 28 days;
-
Three treatment periods during which subjects will be resident from the day before first dosing (Day -1) until at least 24 hours after last dosing (Day 7); discharged on the morning of Day 8, and;
-
A final Follow-up Visit within 5 to 7 days after the last administration of investigational medicinal product (IMP).
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Treatment The subjects will receive oral midazolam solution of 2 mg as a single dose on 2 occasions, 6 days apart (Days 1 and 7). The first dose will be prior to dosing with oral AZD5718 tablet and the second dose after five administrations of AZD5718 under fasted conditions. |
Drug: Midazolam
The subjects will receive single doses of midazolam solution 2 mg/mL orally on Day 1 alone in Treatment Period 1 and on Day 7 co-administered with oral AZD5718 tablet in Treatment Period 3.
Drug: AZD5718
The subjects will receive oral AZD5718 tablet once daily starting on Day 2 to Day 6 in Treatment Period 2 and on Day 7 co-administered with midazolam in Treatment Period 3.
