Efavirenz Alone,Fenofibric Acid (FFA) Alone, Efavirenz and FFA
On the morning of Day 1, subjects received a single dose of efavirenz 600 mg after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, followed by a 21 day washout period. On the mornings of Days 22-30, subjects received a dose of fenofibric acid 105 mg without regard to meals. On the morning of Day 31, subjects received a co-administered single oral dose of efavirenz 600 mg and fenofibric acid 105 mg following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: serial pharmacokinetic blood samples drawn prior to dosing on Days 1 and 31 and then 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours after dose administration.

Population: 30 subjects were enrolled in this study. A total of 6 subjects withdrew. One of those 6 subjects completed all dosing of study interventions but withdrew consent prior to the 8 hour post-dose activities on Day 31.

Timeframe: serial pharmacokinetic blood samples drawn prior to dosing on Days 1 and 31 and then 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours after dose administration

Population: 30 subjects were exposed to study drugs. A total of 6 subjects withdrew. One of those 6 subjects completed all dosing of study medications but withdrew consent prior to the 8 hour post-dose activities on Day 31.

The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time 0 to the time of the last measurable concentration (t), as calculated by the linear trapezoidal rule for efavirenz.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: serial pharmacokinetic blood samples drawn immediately prior to dosing on Days 1 and 31 and then 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours after dose administration

Population: 30 subjects were exposed to study drugs. A total of 6 subjects withdrew. One of those 6 subjects completed all dosing of study medications but withdrew consent prior to the 8 hour post-dose activities on Day 31.

The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time 0 to infinity. \[AUC(0-∞)\] was calculated as the sum of AUC(0-t) plus the ratio of the last measurable plasma concentration to the elimination rate constant for efavirenz.
