Brief summary

The main aim of this study is to compare the amount of brigatinib in the blood of healthy adults after they have swallowed one dose either as a solution or as a tablet.

Detailed description

The drug being tested in this study is called brigatinib. Brigatinib is being tested to assess its relative bioavailability when administered as an oral solution versus as an immediate-release tablet in healthy participants. The study will enroll approximately 12 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the treatment sequences: * Sequence 1: Treatment A followed by Treatment B * Sequence 2: Treatment B followed by Treatment A wherein Treatment A is a 90 mg oral solution dose and Treatment B is a 90 mg tablet dose. There will be a washout period of at least 14 days between brigatinib administration in each study period. The follow-up contact will occur 14 (±2) days post the last dose of study drug. This single-center trial will be conducted in the United States. The overall study duration is approximately 56 days.

An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. A TEAE was defined as an adverse event that was starting or worsening at the time of or after the first dose of brigatinib administered in the study. An SAE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose resulted in death, was life threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly or is an important medical event.
