Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of multiple 40 milligram (mg) doses of JNJ-42847922 on the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple doses of a combination oral contraceptive (OC) containing ethinyl estradiol (EE) and levonorgestrel (LN) in healthy female adult partcipants.

Interventions

Participants will receive one OC tablet containing EE 0.03 mg and LN 0.15 mg once daily on Days 1 to 21 in cycles 1 and 2.

Participants will receive 40 mg of JNJ-42847922 once daily on Days 14 to 21 in cycle 2.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and TolerabilityUp to 87 DaysAn adverse event is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.
