Brief summary

This is a Phase 1, 2-period, multiple-dose, open-label, single fixed sequence study of the effect of ritlecitinib on tolbutamide pharmacokinetics in healthy participants.

Detailed description

A total of approximately 12 healthy male and/or female participants will be enrolled in the study to obtain at least 10 evaluable participants who complete the study. This is an open-label study not requiring an assessment of efficacy or pharmacodynamics markers, but it will include pharmacokinetic estimation drug-drug interactions.

Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) - All Causalities and Treatment RelatedFrom screening up to a follow-up phone call between 28 and 35 calendar days after the last administration of the investigational product and early termination (if applicable)An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation where participants were administered a product; the event needed not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment or usage. TEAEs were events between first dose of study drug and up to discharge from study that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. A treatment-related AE was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to the study drug in a participant who received study drug.

Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) - All Causalities and Treatment Related

An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation where participants were administered a product; the event needed not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment or usage. TEAEs were events between first dose of study drug and up to discharge from study that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. A treatment-related AE was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to the study drug in a participant who received study drug.

Time frame: From screening up to a follow-up phone call between 28 and 35 calendar days after the last administration of the investigational product and early termination (if applicable)

Population: Analysis population included all participants assigned to the study intervention and who took at least 1 dose of the study intervention. Participants were analyzed according to the intervention they actually received.
