PK Interaction Between Rifapentine or Rifampicin and a Single Dose of TMC207 in Healthy Subjects (TMC207-CL002)

This is a open-label study, 2-treatment, 2-period, single sequence design. Period 1 will examine the pharmacokinetics of TMC207 in the absence of rifapentine or rifampicin. Subjects will receive a single 400-mg dose of TMC207 administered alone on Study Day 1. Period 2 will examine the effects of repeated doses of either rifapentine or rifampicin on TMC207 pharmacokinetics and will begin on Study Day 20. During Period 2, subjects will receive 22 daily doses of either 600 mg rifapentine or rifampicin from Study Day 20 through Study Day 41. A single 400-mg dose of TMC207 will be administered on Study Day 29. Subjects will be confined to the clinic from Study Day-1 to Study Day 2 in the morning of Period 1, and Study Day 19 to Study Day 30 in the morning of Period 2. The study hypothesis is to determine whether Rifapentine affects the pharmacokinetics of TMC207 as measured by effects on Cmax and AUC(0-t) to a lesser degree than rifampicin.
