    Abstract:
    AIMS: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a strong CYP3A inducer, rifampin, on glasdegib pharmacokinetics in healthy volunteers. METHODS: In an open-label, fixed-sequence, two-period Phase 1 study, subjects received a single 100-mg oral dose of glasdegib alone or following once-daily pre-treatment with 600 mg rifampin. Glasdegib pharmacokinetics were calculated using a noncompartmental analysis. RESULTS: Twelve healthy male volunteers (3 whites, 5 blacks and 4 others) were enrolled in the study. Mean age, weight, height and body mass index was 37.8 years, 83.0 kg, 177.3 cm and 26.5 kg (m2 ) -1 , respectively. When dosed alone, glasdegib geometric mean (% coefficient of variation) area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUCinf ) was 8145 ng × h ml-1 (23%) and maximum observed concentration (Cmax ) was 703.2 ng ml-1 (19%). With rifampin, glasdegib AUCinf and Cmax decreased, with an adjusted geometric mean ratio (90% confidence interval) 29.66% (26.17-33.62) for AUCinf and 64.71% (57.21-73.19) for Cmax . Mean terminal half-life decreased from 13.39 to 5.11 hours, geometric mean apparent oral clearance increased from 12.27 to 41.38 l h-1 , whereas median time to Cmax remained similar (1.50 vs. 1.25 hours) in the presence of rifampin. All adverse events (n = 29) were mild in severity and resolved by the end of the study. CONCLUSIONS: Co-administration of rifampin expectedly decreased glasdegib AUCinf and Cmax by ~70% and ~35%, respectively. These results will help to formulate recommendations for dosing strategies in combination with CYP3A inducers in situations where co-administration may be necessary.
