Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to test whether Rifampin affects blood levels of istradefylline in humans. Rifampin could possibly decrease istradefylline levels.
Interventions
On Day 1, istradefylline 1 × 40-mg tablet administered alone
On Days 1 - 20, rifampin 300mg BID; On Day 8, istradefylline 40 mg administered first with rifampin about 2 hours after istradefylline administration
