Primary outcomePrimary: Sildenafil Alone Maximum Plasma Concentration — 79.9 ng/mL
Summary
This is a healthy volunteer study looking at the interactions between two drugs: boceprevir and sildenafil.
New drugs are being developed to treat people with the chronic viral infection hepatitis C. Very little is know how these new treatments interact with other medications such as the drugs used to treat erectile dysfunction.
The purpose of this study is to look at levels of both a new hepatitis C drug called boceprevir (BOC) and an existing erectile dysfunction drug called sildenafil to see if they affect the blood levels of each other when given separately and together.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- The ability to understand and sign a written informed consent form, prior to participation in any screening procedures and must be willing to comply with all study requirements.
- Subjects in good health upon medical history, physical exam, and laboratory testing and BMI <32.
- Subjects who are heterosexually active must use two forms of barrier contraception (e.g., condom with spermicide) during heterosexual intercourse, from screening through completion of the study including 10 days following last dose of study drug.
- Have no serologic evidence of HIV or HCV infection through antibody testing at screening.
- Have screening laboratory results (haematology, chemistry) that fall within the normal range of the central laboratory's reference ranges unless the results have been determined by the Investigator to have no clinical relevance
Exclusion Criteria
- Any serious or active medical or psychiatric illness which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with subject treatment, assessment, or compliance with the protocol. This would include any active clinically significant renal, cardiac, hepatic, pulmonary, vascular, metabolic (thyroid disorders, adrenal disease), immunodeficiency disorders, active infection, or malignancy.
- Previous participation in an investigational trial involving administration of any investigational compound within 1 month prior to the study screening.
- Clinically relevant alcohol or drug use (positive drug screen) or history of alcohol or drug use considered by the Investigator to be sufficient to hinder compliance with treatment, follow-up procedures or evaluation of adverse events. Smoking is permitted, but tobacco intake should remain consistent throughout the study.
- Any medication taken listed in protocol including over-the-counter medications and herbal products within 21 days of commencing study drug dosing with the exception of vitamins and/or paracetamol. When a concomitant medication is necessary, this will be reviewed by the Investigator and if not contraindicated, may be continued at the same dose and frequency during the study period.
- History of drug sensitivity or drug allergy which in the opinion of the investigator may put the subject at increased risk of drug reactions during the study.
- Subjects with female partners who are pregnant will not be allowed to enter the study
