Brief summary

PRN1008-011 is a single center, four-period, open-label, randomized, complete cross-over study in healthy adult participants.This study will evaluate the relative bioavailability of two novel formulations of PRN1008 (Test Formulations #1 and #2) compared to an existing tablet formulation (Reference Formulation), which has previously been administered in Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies. The information obtained in this study will evaluate the potential of the two novel formulations for use in future PRN1008 patient studies, and determine if any dosage adjustments are needed to obtain similar plasma exposures between the formulations. PRN1008 is a novel, reversible covalent, investigational drug that inhibits Bruton’s agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (BTK). PRN1008 acts as an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) competitive inhibitor that is both potent and selective for BTK. PRN1008 has a slow off-rate for binding to the target site, resulting in prolonged target occupancy relative to its low systemic exposure. This study will also evaluate the PK of PRN1008 when co-administered with a customary dose of famotidine, an H2-receptor antagonist. Co-administration of PRN1008 in the morning after famotidine use, as well as in the evening 2 hours prior to famotidine will be studied. A prior study (PRN1008-006) found that PRN1008, when administered in combination with a proton-pump inhibitor (esomeprazole), demonstrated approximately a 50% reduction in plasma exposure, most likely due to the impact of esomeprazole on gastric pH. Based on these results, proton-pump inhibitors are currently excluded from PRN1008 clinical trials. The objective of this evaluation is to assess the potential impact of co-administering PRN1008 with H2-receptor antagonists, which are less potent reducers of gastric pH compared to proton-pump inhibitors. The results of these evaluations will inform the use of PRN1008 in future clinical studies. Finally, this study will evaluate the potential for PRN1008 to alter the PK of midazolam when co-administered under various scenarios; this information will inform the use of PRN1008 in autoimmune diseases where drugs like midazolam and other CYP 3A substrates may be co-administered.

Interventions

This will be a single center, four-period, open-label, randomized, complete cross-over study in healthy adult participants. Participants will be screened for participation within 29 days before dosing. Participants will be admitted to the study unit on Day -2, the day before the first midazolam dosing (Day -1), and participants will receive PRN1008 on Days 1, 3, 5, and 7. Participants will remain in the study unit to observe safety and protocol compliance until the last PK sample draw on Day 8.

Participants will be screened for participation within 29 days before dosing. Participants will be admitted to the study unit on Day -2, the day before the first midazolam dosing (Day -1), and participants will receive PRN1008 on Days 1, 3, 5, and 7. Participants will remain in the study unit to observe safety and protocol compliance until the last PK sample draw on Day 8. All participants will complete all four Periods of the study. All participants will receive a single 2 mg oral dose of midazolam (1 mg/mL solution) on Day -1, followed by intensive blood sampling for 12 hours for midazolam pharmacokinetics (PK). Beginning Day 1, participants will be randomized to order of PRN1008 treatment (Treatment 1, 2, or 3) for the first three Study Periods. All participants will receive Treatment 4 in Period 4. Treatments are as listed below. Subjects will be dosed with PRN1008 once on Days 1, 3, and 5 and twice on Day 7. Doses will be administered approximately 48 hours apart for all PRN1008 Treatments. Treatment 1 Following an overnight fast, participants will receive a single 400 mg oral dose of PRN1008 (Reference Formulation), and simultaneously receive a single 2 mg oral dose of midazolam. Blood samples will be obtained over a period of 12 hours for determination of the PRN1008 and midazolam PK profiles. Treatment 2 Following an overnight fast, participants will receive a single 400 mg oral dose of PRN1008 (Test Formulation #1), and simultaneously receive a single 2 mg oral dose of midazolam. Blood samples will be obtained over a period of 12 hours for determination of the PRN1008 and midazolam PK profiles. Treatment 3 Following an overnight fast, participants will receive a single 400 mg oral dose of PRN1008 (Test Formulation #2), and will receive a single 2 mg oral dose of midazolam 2 hours after PRN1008. Blood samples will be obtained over a period of 14 hours for determination of the PRN1008 and midazolam PK profiles. Treatment 4 Participants will receive 20 mg oral doses of famotidine in the evening of Days 5, 6, and 7. Following an overnight fast on Day 7, participants will receive one 400 mg oral dose of PRN1008 (Reference Formulation) administered in the morning and a second dose in the evening (10-12 hours after the am dose), 2 hours prior to famotidine dosing, and after a four hour period of fasting. Blood samples will be obtained over a period of 12 hours following each PRN1008 dose for determination of PRN1008 PK. Participants will be randomized to complete one of 6 possible treatment sequences: • 1234 • 1324 • 2134 • 2314 • 3124 • 3214 Following discharge from the study unit on the morning of Day 8, subjects will return for a follow-up assessment on Day 15 (+/- 2 days).
