Brief summary
The objective of the current study is to investigate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of BI 201335 ZW following administration of single rising doses from 5 mg to 1500 mg. In addition Two stage intra-subject bioavailability comparison of 600 mg BI 201335 ZW as a liquid formulation given with and without food.
