Fontan, FALD
Brief summary
This is a single center, open-label, prospective, investigation to quantify the effects liver congestion and fibrosis has on hepatic drug metabolism and transport in children, adolescents, and young adults with Fontan circulation.
Interventions
A single oral dose of sildenafil will be administered to all study subjects.
A single oral dose of pravastatin will be administered to all study subjects.

Intervention model description
This is a single center, open-label, prospective, investigation to quantify the effects of liver congestion and fibrosis has on hepatic statin transport (SA1) and response (SA2) in children, adolescents, and young adults with Fontan circulation.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Sildenafil concentration as measured by area under the curve (AUC) | 2 years | Area under the time-exposure curve (AUC 0-n) for sildenafil as determinants of the dose-exposure relationship. |
| Pravastatin concentration as measured by area under the curve (AUC) | 2 years | Area under the time-exposure curve (AUC 0-n) for pravastatin as determinants of the dose-exposure relationship. |
