Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the effect of AZD1656 on the steady state pharmacokinetics of simvastatin (including simvastatin acid) and vice versa by assessment of AUC(0-24) and Cmax. | Frequent blood samples for PK analysis will be drawn during 24 hours post morning dose on day 4 in each treatment period (1-3) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the effect of AZD1656 on the steady state pharmacokinetics of simvastatin and simvastatin acid and vice versa by assessment of tmax, t1/2 and CL/F (only for AZD1656) | Frequent serial blood samples will be drawn during 24 hours post morning dose on Day 4 in each treatment period (1-3) |
| To evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics of the AZD1656 metabolite when AZD1656 is administered with and without simvastatin, by assessment of AUC(0-24), Cmax and tmax. | Frequent serial blood samples will be drawn during 24 hours post morning dose on Day 4 in each treatment period (1-3) |
| To evaluate the effect of AZD1656 on the pharmacodynamics of simvastatin by assessment of AUC(0-t) and Cmax of active 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitors. | Frequent serial blood samples will be drawn during 24 hours post morning dose on Day 4 in each treatment period (1-3) |
| To evaluate the safety and tolerability of AZD1656 alone and in combination with simvastatin by assessments of adverse events, laboratory variables, electrocardiogram, blood pressure, pulse, results of physical examination, and weight. | At pre entry, during the study days, |
