Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

maximum plasma cetirizine concentration (Cmax)

PK blood samples to measure plasma concentrations of tadalafil will be collected by direct venipuncture or by use of an indwelling cannula. Blood will be collected into tubes containing K2EDTA for determination of plasma tadalafil concentration at time 0 (within 60 minutes pre-dose), 10, 20 minute post-dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours post-dose. Plasma tadalafil concentrations will be listed at each time point by subject and summarized by treatment at each time point using descriptive statistics (n, mean, standard deviation (SD), Coefficient of variation (CV%), median, minimum and maximum values). Pharmacokinetic calculations will be performed based on actual time of blood sample collection, using non-compartmental methods with Phoenix WinNonlin Version 8.1 (Certara USA, Inc., Princeton, New Jersey, USA). Plots of mean concentrations of plasma tadalafil versus time will be generated and Cmax will be generated from the plot.

Time frame
96 hours
2

area under the plasma drug concentration versus time curve (AUC)

AUC will be determined using non-compartmental analysis methods (Phoenix WinNonlin software, version 8.1 or higher, Certara USA Inc., Princeton, NJ). AUC will be calculated to the last measurable observation (AUC0-t) and extrapolated to infinity (AUC0 ∞).

Time frame
96 hours

Secondary outcomes

1

time to Cmax (Tmax)

Tmax will be determined using non-compartmental analysis methods (Phoenix WinNonlin software, version 8.1 or higher, Certara USA Inc., Princeton, NJ).

Time frame
96 hours
2

elimination half-life (t½)

t½ will be determined using non-compartmental analysis methods (Phoenix WinNonlin software, version 8.1 or higher, Certara USA Inc., Princeton, NJ).

Time frame
96 hours
3

terminal elimination rate constant (Kel).

Kel will be determined using non-compartmental analysis methods (Phoenix WinNonlin software, version 8.1 or higher, Certara USA Inc., Princeton, NJ).

Time frame
96 hours
