Rivaroxaban and apixaban are blood thinners. People with HIV may need to take them to treat or prevent blood clots. The anti-HIV drug darunavir (DRV) can increase the amount of these blood thinners in the body. This can cause bleeding or other health problems. The drug cobicistat (COBI) is used to help anti-HIV drugs work better. Researchers want to give healthy people DRV combined with COBI to learn how it affects rivaroxaban or apixaban blood levels.
Objective:
To test blood levels of rivaroxaban or apixaban when taken with COBI and DRV/COBI.
Eligibility:
Healthy volunteers ages 18-65
Design:
Participants will be screened with:
Medical history
Physical exam
Fasting blood and urine tests. (Urine tests will be performed in females of child-bearing potential only)
Participants will have 8 visits; 3 are long (about 10-12 hours) and 5 are about 1 hour. They include:
Baseline and final visits:
Fasting blood and urine tests
Day 1 visit (long day):
Catheter placement: A needle will insert a small tube into the participant s arm vein. Blood will be drawn up to 10 times.
Dose of rivaroxaban or apixaban
Day 2 visit (short day):
<TAB>Fasting blood tests
Dose of COBI
Participants will receive a bottle containing COBI tablets to take at home.
Day 7 (long day):
<TAB>Dose of rivaroxaban or apixaban
<TAB>Dose of COBI
Day 8 (short day):
Fasting blood tests
Dose of DRV/COBI participants will receive a bottle containing DRV/COBI tablets to take at home.
Day 13 (long day):
<TAB>Dose of DRV/COBI
Day 14 (short day):
Participants will take COBI tablets daily at home on days 3-6, and DRV/COBI on days 9 -12 during the study. They will record doses and side effects.
During the study, participants cannot:
Take most medications.
Drink alcohol, smoke, or vape
Engage in activities such as contact and extreme sports
