Pharmacokinetic Interaction Between Diltiazem and ACT-541468 in Healthy Subjects
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The main objective of this study is to investigate whether repeated administration of a cardiac medication (diltiazem) can affect the pharmacokinetics (i.e., amount and time of presence in the blood) of ACT-541468
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
Because ACT-541468 appears to be mainly metabolized by CYP3A4, it is deemed of interest to investigate the potential influence of diltiazem, a well-known CYP3A4 inhibitor on the pharmacokinetic profile of ACT-541468.
Safety of the concomitant administration of the two drugs will also be assessed

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Sequence AB During Period 1, subjects receive a single dose of ACT-541468 on Day 1. During Period 2, they receive Diltiazem from Day 1 to Day 7 and a single dose of ACT-541468 on Day 4 |
Drug: ACT-541468
Oral capsule (25 mg) as single dose
Drug: Diltiazem
Two oral capsules (2 x 120 mg) once daily from Day 1 to Day 7

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of ACT-541468 [From baseline to end of study (Day 8 after last study drug intake for sequence AB, Day 5 after last study drug intake for sequence BA)]
Cmax will be directly derived from the plasma concentration time curves of ACT-541468
- Time to reach Cmax of ACT-541468 in plasma [From baseline to end of study (Day 8 after last study drug intake for sequence AB, Day 5 after last study drug intake for sequence BA]
tmax will be directly derived from the plasma concentration time curves of ACT-541468
- Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of ACT-541468 [From baseline to end of study (Day 8 after last study drug intake for sequence AB, Day 5 after last study drug intake for sequence BA)]
AUC will be calculated for the following time frame: from time zero to the last measured concentration above the limit of quantification and from time zero to infinitiy
Other Outcome Measures
- Incidence of safety events of interest [From baseline to end of study (Day 8 after last study drug intake for sequence AB, Day 5 after last study drug intake for sequence BA)]
Events of interest are any abnormalities in ECG, vital signs or laboratory test results
- Incidence of adverse events [From baseline to end of study (Day 8 after last study drug intake for sequence AB, Day 5 after last study drug intake for sequence BA)]
Number of participants with any adverse events, including laboratory abnormalities
