A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Verapamil on the Pharmacokinetics of ASP015K in Healthy Adult Subjects

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of verapamil, a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitor, on the pharmacokinetics of ASP015K. This study will also assess the safety and tolerability of ASP015K administered alone and also and in combination with verapamil.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Eligible subjects will be admitted to the clinical unit on day -1 and remain confined until day 15.
