NCT01636557
Brief Summary:
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential effects of a single dose of sirukumab on the pharmacokinetics (what the body does to a drug) of study agents that are specific for cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes (CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP1A2) in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study will also assess the safety and tolerability of a single subcutaneous (SC, under the skin) dose of sirukumab in patients with active RA.
Detailed Description:
This is an open-label (all patients and study personnel will know the identity of the administered study agents), multi-center, drug-drug interaction study. Approximately 18 patients may be enrolled in this study, and there will be one treatment group. All patients will receive a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of sirukumab. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme-specific study agents (5-probe cocktail) will consist of oral doses of midazolam, warfarin/vitamin K, omeprazole, and caffeine administered on 4 separate occasions throughout the study. A blood sample for CYP genetic analysis (genotyping) will be collected during screening from all prospective patients to determine eligibility for the study. Participation in CYP genotyping prescreening is mandatory for all patients. The CYP genotyping blood sample will not be used for any additional genetic research and will be destroyed after completion of this study. The total duration of study participation will be approximately 12 weeks for all patients included in the study, including a screening visit up to 4 weeks prior to first study agent administration. Patients will have five in-patient periods, four consisting of 3 days and 2 nights each and one consisting of 2 days and 1 night. Patients safety will be monitored throughout the study, and there will be approximately 7 weeks of safety follow-up after sirukumab administration.
