Primary Outcome Measures:
  • area under the concentration-time curve of afatinib in plasma over the time interval from 0 to the time of the last quantifiable data point (AUC0-tz) [ Time Frame: 120 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • (maximum measured concentration of afatinib in plasma (Cmax) [ Time Frame: 120 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • area under the concentration-time curve of afatinib in plasma over the time interval from 0 to infinity (AUC0-8) [ Time Frame: 120 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Enrollment: 24
Study Start Date: August 2011
Primary Completion Date: December 2011 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: treatment A
1 tablet afatinib single dose
Drug: afatinib
standard therapeutic dose
Experimental: treatment B
2 x 2 tablets ritonavir for 3 days + 1 tablet afatinib on the second treatment day
Drug: ritonavir + afatinib
simultaneous intake of ritonavir and afatinib on second treatment day
Experimental: treatment C
2 x 2 tablets ritonavir for 3 days + 1 tablet afatinib on the second treatment day
Drug: ritonavir + afatinib
on the second treatment day the first ritonavir tablet will be taken 6 hours after the afatinib tablet
