Clinical pharmacology

Drug-drug interaction with aspirin

Trial purpose

Primary objective of pilot part:
• to investigate the safety and tolerability of a single dose of 15 mg vericiguat administered as three 5 mg immediate release (IR) tablets in fasted state.
Secondary objective of pilot part:
• to investigate the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of 15 mg vericiguat administered as three 5 mg IR tablets in fasted state.

Primary objective of main part:
• to investigate the influence of a combined treatment of a single dose of 10 mg or 15 mg vericiguat (administered as two or three 5 mg IR tablets) and Aspirin on bleeding time and platelet aggregation (pharmacodynamics).

Trial design

Aspirin interaction study to investigate the influence of Aspirin (2x 500 mg, 500 mg once daily) combined with a single dose of 15 mg Vericiguat (BAY 1021189) on bleeding time and platelet aggregation in comparison to a single dose of 15 mg Vericiguat (BAY 1021189) alone and to 2 single doses of Aspirin in healthy male subjects in randomized, non-blinded, non-placebo-controlled 3-fold cross-over design (main- part), preceded by a pilot part to investigate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of 15 mg Vericiguat (BAY 1021189) tablet in healthy male subjects in a non-randomized, non-blinded, non-controlled design
