A Phase 1, Open-Label, Randomized Three-Period, Six-Sequence Crossover Study In Healthy Adult Subjects To Evaluate The Bioavailablity Of An Oral Suspension Formulation Relative To The Tablet Formulation Of Apremilast And To Assess The Effect Of Food On The Pharmacokinetics Of The Oral Suspension Formulation
The purpose of this study is to assess how much of apremilast is found in the blood unchanged
when administered as an oral suspension compared to when it is administered as a tablet
formulation. The effect of food on apremilast oral suspension will also be evaluated. In
addition, information on the safety and tolerability of apremilast will be obtained.
CC-10004 (also known as apremilast or Otezla®) has been approved by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) for the treatment of active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and moderate to
severe plaque psoriasis in adults. The liquid formulation of apremilast is an investigational
drug being developed by Celgene Corporation to treat plaque psoriasis in children. An
investigational drug is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is a phase 1, open-label, randomized, three-period, six-sequence crossover study in
healthy subjects. The study will consist of a screening phase, a baseline phase, three study
periods, and a follow-up phone call. Each study period will be four days in duration (Day 1
through Day 4) of dosing followed by a five-day washout between doses.
Within no more than 21 days (Day -21) and no less than two days (Day -2) prior to the start
of the first study period, subjects will undergo routine screening procedures including a
12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), vital signs, clinical laboratory safety tests, serology
screen, pregnancy and FSH testing, and drug/alcohol screen.
Eligible subjects will be admitted into the study center on Day -1 of study Period 1 for
baseline measurements. During each study period, subjects will receive a single 30 mg oral
dose of apremilast on Day 1 according to the assigned treatment sequence. Subjects will be
domiciled at the study center from Day 1 of study Period 1 through Day 4 of study Period 3,
including the 5 day washout between doses. All subjects will be discharged from the study
center on Day 4 of study Period 3 following completion of required study procedures.
A follow-up phone call will occur approximately four days (±2 days) after the discharge from
the study center.
The study will be conducted in compliance with International Conference on Harmonisation
(ICH) Good Clinical Practices (GCPs).

Inclusion Criteria:
- Subjects must satisfy ALL of the following criteria to be eligible for enrollment into
the study:
1. Must understand and voluntarily sign a written Informed Consent (ICF) prior to any
study-related procedures being performed.
2. Must be able to communicate with the investigator, understand and comply with the
requirements of the study, and agree to adhere to restrictions and examination
schedules.
3. Male and female subjects of any race between 18 to 55 years of age (inclusive), and in
good health as determined by the Investigator at the time of signing the informed
consent document.
4. Have a Boday Mass Index (BMI) between 18 and 33 kg/m2 (inclusive).
5. No clinically significant laboratory test results as determined by the investigator.
6. At the screening visit, must be afebrile, with supine systolic BP: 90 to 140 mmHg,
supine diastolic BP: 50 to 90 mmHg, and pulse rate: 40 to 110 bpm. Eligibility
criteria for vital signs performed during check-in and/or predose on Day 1 will be at
the discretion of the Investigator.
7. Must have a normal or clinically acceptable 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG). Subjects
must have a QTcF value ≤ 450 msec.
8. Contraception Requirements:
- Must comply with the following acceptable forms of contraception. All FCBP must
use one of the approved contraceptive options as described below while taking
apremilast and for at least 28 days after administration of the last dose of the
apremilast.
- At the time of study entry, and at any time during the study when a FCBP's
contraceptive measures or ability to become pregnant changes, the Investigator
will educate the subject regarding contraception options and the correct and
consistent use of effective contraceptive methods in order to successfully
prevent pregnancy
