V.Sekar1, R.Verloes2, P. Meyvisch2, K. Spittaels2, S.H. Akuma2, G. De Smedt2 1Tibotec Inc, USA; 2Tibotec BVBA, Belgium
 

*0.025 mg/kg midazolam (i.v. given slowly over a 1-minute period), dextromethorphan (30 mg p.o.), caffeine (150 mg p.o.), omeprazole (40 mg p.o.) and warfarin (10 mg p.o.) supplemented with vitamin K (10 mg p.o.) QD, once daily
 

a n=10 for t1/2term
b Accurate determination not possible
AUC24h, area under the concentration-time curve from administration up to 24 hours post-dose; BID, twice daily; CI, conJdence interval; C0h, pre-dose plasma concentration;
Cmax, maximum plasma concentration; Cmin, minimum plasma concentration; QD, once daily; t1/2term, terminal elimination half-life; tmax, time to reach maximum concentration
 
Compared with TMC435 alone, concomitant TMC435 and ritonavir administration resulted in:
- higher mean plasma concentrations of TMC435
- a 14.3-, 4.7- and 7.2-fold increase in TMC435 Cmin, Cmax and AUC24h, respectively.
 

a n=17 for Day 1
b n=19 for Day 1 and 2, n=18 for Day 4
AUC24h, area under the concentration-time curve from administration up to 24 hours post-dose; CI, conJdence interval; C0h, pre-dose plasma concentration; Cmin, minimum plasma concentration; Cmax, maximum plasma concentration; NQ, not quantiJable; LS, least squares; QD, once daily; tmax, time to reach maximum concentration
