Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of Escalating Rifapentine Doses in Healthy Volunteers

NCT01162486

Non-randomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment

Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate (1) the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of rifapentine (RPT) administered daily by oral; (2) the effect of increasing doses of RPT on cytochrome P450 isoform 3A (CYP3A) enzyme metabolizing activity, using single-dose midazolam (MDZ); and (3) the effect of increasing doses of RPT on autoinduction of RPT metabolism.
