Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Any treatment with investigational drugs within 30 days or 5 half-lives prior to receiving the investigational treatment; 2. Any treatment with inhibitors of CYP3A4 (e.g. boceprevir, claritromycine, erytromycine, indinavir, itraconazol, ketoconazol, ritonavir and voriconazol), inhibitors of Pgp (e.g. ciclosporine, kinidine and verapamil), inhibitors of BCRP (e.g. lapatinib), inductors of CYP3A4, Pgp or BCRP; 4.

Patients suffering from any known disease or dysfunction that might influence the dissolution and/or absorption of imatinib (e.g. inflammatory bowel disease)
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To ascertain whether the absolute bioavailability of oral imatinib (Glivec®) at steady state can be calculated using LC-MS/MS after concomitant administration of a single 100 µg microdose of stable isotope labeled imatinib (imatinib-d8). | — |
