A Clinical Study to Investigate the Potential Interactions Between Food and ACT-541468 and Between ACT-541468 and Midazolam

A Single-center, Open-label Study to Investigate the Food Effect on the Pharmacokinetics of ACT-541468 and the Effect of Single- and Multiple-dose ACT-541468 on the Pharmacokinetics of Midazolam and Its Metabolite 1-Hydroxymidazolam in Healthy Male Subjects

Brief summary

The main objectives of this phase 1 trial are to evaluate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics (i.e. how long and how much a compound is present in the blood) of ACT-541468 and to evaluate whether ACT-541468 can affect the pharmacokinetics of midazolam, a CYP3A4 substrate.

Detailed description

Food effect will be assessed by comparing the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of a single dose of ACT-541468 under fasted (Treatment B) and fed (Treatment C) conditions. Potential CYP3A4 inhibiting / inducing effects of ACT-541468 will be assessed by comparing the PK parameters of midazolam alone (Treatment A) and midazolam given with a single dose of ACT-541468 (Treatment B) or with multiple doses of ACT-541468 (Treatment D).
