Study to Evaluate the 2-Way Interaction Between Multiple Doses of Epanova™ and a Single Dose of Rosuvastatin (Crestor®)

An Open-Label, 2-Cohort Study to Evaluate the 2-Way Interaction Between Multiple Doses of Epanova™ and a Single Dose of Rosuvastatin (Crestor®), to Assess the Dose Proportionality of Epanova™, and to Compare the Systemic Exposure of Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) Following Multiple Doses of Epanova™ and Vascepa® in Healthy Normal Subjects

Brief summary

This study is intended to evaluate the potential 2-way reciprocal interaction between multiple doses of Epanova™ and a single dose of rosuvastatin

Detailed description

The PK of rosuvastatin will be monitored following single-dose administration of rosuvastatin with and without multiple-dose administration of 4 g Epanova™ for 13 consecutive days in order to detect a possible interaction between rosuvastatin and Epanova™. The PK of total EPA, total DHA and total EPA+DHA will also be monitored following multiple-dose administration of Epanova™ with and without single-dose administration of 40 mg rosuvastatin. A single dose administration for rosuvastatin has been judged sufficient to yield plasma concentrations that will be detectable with an adequate validated analytical method and characterize adequately the PK of rosuvastatin.

Interventions

DRUGrosuvastatin 40 mg tablet

Single oral dose of 40 mg (1 x 40 mg tablet) rosuvastatin (Crestor®) (Day 1).

DRUGEpanova™ QD (2 x 1 g capsules)

Multiple oral doses of 2 g (2 x 1 g capsules) Epanova™ QD for 10 consecutive days (Days 4 to 13)

DRUGMultiple doses of 4 g Epanova™ with single of rosuvastatin 40 mg dose

Multiple oral doses of 4 g Epanova™ QD for 13 consecutive days with coadministration of single 40 mg oral dose of rosuvastatin (Crestor®) with the 11th dose of Epanova™ on Day 24

DRUGMultiple (20) oral doses of 2 g Vascepa® every 12 hours

Multiple oral doses of 2 g (2 x 1 g capsules) Vascepa® every 12 hours for 20 consecutive days (Days 1 to 20).
