Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile for atorvastatin (in plasma):AUCinf, AUClast, Cmax
    • Time Frame: Days 1 and 12 at predose and at 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose
    • Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf), AUC from time of dosing to the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast), and maximum concentration(Cmax)

Secondary Measures

  • PK profile for atorvaststin (in plasma): t1/2, tmax, CL/F, and Vz/F
    • Time Frame: Days 1 and 12 at predose and at 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours postdose
    • Apparent terminal elimination half-life (t1/2), time to attain Cmax (tmax), apparent body clearance after oral dosing (CL/F), and apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F)
  • PK profile for Isavuconazole (in plasma): AUCtau, Cmax, and tmax
    • Time Frame: Days 11 and 12 at predose and at 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, and 20 hours post dose
    • AUC during time interval between consecutive dosing (AUCtau), maximum concentration (Cmax),and time to attain Cmax (tmax)
  • PK Isavuconazole (in plasma): trough concentration (Ctrough)
    • Time Frame: Predose on Day 10 and Days 13 through 14 and on Day 15 predose and 24 hours post dose
  • Safety assessed by recording of adverse events, clinical laboratory evaluation, electrocardiograms (ECGs) and vital signs
    • Time Frame: Day 1 through Day 24 (± 2 days)
