Healthy Volunteer
Conditions
Brief summary
This will be a single-center, open-label, inpatient/outpatient, fixed-sequence study examining the effect of multiple doses of bitopertin on single doses of Midazolam in healthy volunteers. A single oral dose on Midazolam (7.5 mg) will be administered on Day 1 after an overnight fast. Daily oral doses of bitopertin will be given under fed conditions from Days 2-13 and after fasting on Day 14. Oral doses of bitopertin and Midazolam (7.5 mg) will be co-administered on Day 15, after an overnight fast. Pharmacokinetics will be assessed throughout. Total time on treatment is expected to be 15 days.
Interventions
Single oral doses will be given on Days 1 and 15, after an overnight fast.
An oral dose will be given daily in the morning from Days 2-15. On Days 14 and 15, bitopertin will be given after an overnight fast; on Days 2-13, bitopertin will be given under fed conditions.
