Brief summary
The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the relative Bioavailability (BA) of tablet formulation of Dabigatran etexilate (DE) with and without co-administration of rabeprazole in healthy male subjects. The secondary objective is the evaluation and comparison of several pharmacokinetic parameters between the treatments.

Participant flow
Recruitment details
This was open label, 2 period, fixed sequence (RT), single arm study in 36 healthy male Japanese subjects. All subjects were orally treated with single dose of 110 milligram (mg) dabigatran etexilate (DE) tablet formulation alone in period 1 and with 20 mg rabeprazole tablet in period 2 with 4 days of rabeprazole pre-medication.
Pre-assignment details
After it had been determined that the subject met all eligibility criteria, a unique subject number was assigned. The number was recorded on electronic Case Report Forms and correspondence regarding the subject. Once a subject number had been assigned, it could not be reassigned to any other subject. Randomisation was not planned in this study.
