Brief summary
This is a drug interaction study evaluating the pharmacokinetic profiles of Ciprofloxacin XR administered alone & in combination with MMX Mesalazine/mesalamine.
Interventions
MMX Mesalazine/mesalamine placebo dosed once-a-day (QD) orally for 3 days, then a single oral 500 mg dose of ciprofloxacin XR + a single oral dose of MMX Mesalazine/mesalamine placebo on day 4
MMX Mesalazine/mesalamine 4.8 g QD orally for 3 days, then a single oral 500 mg dose of ciprofloxacin XR + a single oral dose 4.8 g of MMX Mesalazine/mesalamine on day 4

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Age 18-55 years inclusive at the time of consent. The date of signing informed consent is defined as the beginning of the Screening Period. 2. Subject is willing to comply with any applicable contraceptive requirements of the protocol and is: * Male, or * Non-pregnant, non-lactating female * Females must be at least 90 days post-partum or nulliparous.
Exclusion criteria
1. A history of current or recurrent disease that could affect the colon. This includes gastrointestinal disease, peptic ulceration, gastrointestinal bleeding, celiac disease, lactose intolerance, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, or Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Subjects who have a history of chronic constipation, which is physician diagnosed and treated, will also be excluded from the study (frequency of bowel movements \>48 hours between samples). 2. A history of current or relevant serious, severe, or unstable (acute or progressive) physical or psychiatric illness. 3. A history of gastrointestinal surgery performed within the past 12 months prior to the first dose of investigational product, with the exception of an appendectomy. 4. A history of or current clinically relevant moderate or severe renal or hepatic impairment. 5. A history of asthma or bronchospasm associated with the use of 5-ASA or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. 6. Known or suspected intolerance or hypersensitivity to the investigational product or ciprofloxacin XR, closely related compounds, or any of the stated ingredients
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC 0→∞) of Ciprofloxacin XR | Assessed over a 24-hour period starting post-dose on day 4 | AUC can be used as a measure of drug exposure. It is derived from drug concentration and time so it gives a measure how much and how long a drug stays in a body. |
| Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Ciprofloxacin XR | Assessed over a 24-hour period starting post-dose on day 4 | Cmax is a term that refers to the maximum (or peak) concentration that a drug achieves in the body after the drug has been administrated. |

Outcome results
Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC 0→∞) of Ciprofloxacin XR
AUC can be used as a measure of drug exposure. It is derived from drug concentration and time so it gives a measure how much and how long a drug stays in a body.
Time frame: Assessed over a 24-hour period starting post-dose on day 4
Population: Pharmacokinetic Analysis Set defined as all subjects in the Safety Analysis Set for whom the primary pharmacokinetic data were considered sufficient and interpretable. Safety Analysis Set defined as subjects who took at least 1 dose of investigational product and had at least 1 postdose safety assessment.
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMX Placebo + Ciprofloxacin | Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC 0→∞) of Ciprofloxacin XR | 7805 ng*h/ml | Standard Deviation 1949 |
| MMX Mesalazine/Mesalamine + Ciprofloxacin | Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity (AUC 0→∞) of Ciprofloxacin XR | 7934 ng*h/ml | Standard Deviation 2101 |
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Ciprofloxacin XR
Cmax is a term that refers to the maximum (or peak) concentration that a drug achieves in the body after the drug has been administrated.
Time frame: Assessed over a 24-hour period starting post-dose on day 4
Population: Pharmacokinetic Analysis Set defined as all subjects in the Safety Analysis Set for whom the primary pharmacokinetic data were considered sufficient and interpretable.
