Brief summary: This study will compare the pharmacokinetics of omeprazole, rosiglitazone and desipramine when administered with a single oral dose of avanafil in healthy male subjects.

Detailed description: There will be three cohorts in this Phase I, single-center, open-label, crossover study:

Cohort A (omeprazole): This is a open-label, non-randomized, one-sequence crossover study design, in which 20 healthy male subjects will be enrolled and administered a single oral dose of 40 mg omeprazole once daily for 8 days (Days 1-8) plus a single oral dose of 200 mg avanafil on Day 8. On Days 7 and 8, avanafil and/or omeprazole doses will be administered following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours.

All subjects will be confined at the Clinical Research Unit the day prior to the omeprazole administration on Day 7 and will remain confined for approximately 13 hours following the dosing on Day 8. Blood samples for determination of plasma omeprazole concentrations will be obtained from all subjects at 0 (10 minutes pre-dose), 20, 40 minutes and 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-dose on Days 7 and 8. Pre-dose blood samples for determination of omeprazole will also be taken in the morning on Days 5-6.

Cohort B (rosiglitazone): This is a randomized, open-label, two-period crossover study design, in which 20 male subjects will be randomized to receive the following treatments:

* Treatment A: a single oral dose of 8 mg rosiglitazone following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours.
* Treatment B: a single oral dose of 8 mg rosiglitazone plus a single oral dose of 200 mg avanafil following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours.

The two treatments in the cohort will be separated by a washout period of at least 7 days. All subjects will be confined at the Clinical Research Unit approximately from the morning of Day -1 to the morning of Day 2 in both treatment periods. Blood samples for determination of plasma rosiglitazone concentrations will be obtained from all subjects at 0 (10 minutes pre-dose) and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and 24 hours post-dose.

Cohort C (desipramine): This is a randomized, open-label, two-period, crossover study design, in which 20subjects identified as CYP2D6 extensive metabolizers (determined by genotyping) will be randomized to receive the following treatments:

* Treatment A: a single oral dose of 50 mg desipramine following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours.
* Treatment B: a single oral dose of 50 mg desipramine plus a single oral dose of 200 mg avanafil following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours. The avanafil dose will be administered 2 hours after the desipramine administration.

The two treatments in the cohort will be separated by a washout period of at least 10 days. All subjects will be confined at the Clinical Research Unit from the morning of Day -1 to the morning of Day 2 in both treatment periods. Blood samples for determination of plasma desipramine concentrations will be obtained from all subjects at 0 (10 minutes pre-dose) and 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours post-dose. Subjects will visit the study site as outpatients in the morning for their remaining PK blood sample collection on Days 3-5.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Voluntarily consent to participate in the study (informed consent form must be signed and dated prior to any study related assessments).
2. Adult male subjects of 18 to 45 years of age inclusive.
3. A body weight of at least 50 kg and a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 30 kg/m2, inclusive \[BMI will be calculated as weight in kg/(height in m)2\].
4. Subjects must be identified as CYP2D6 extensive metabolizers (determined by genotyping) for Cohort C only
5. Subjects are able to communicate with the investigator, and to understand and comply with all requirements of study participation.
6. Medically healthy, with no clinically significant screening results (e.g., laboratory profiles, medical histories, ECGs, physical exam, etc.), in the opinion of the investigator in consultation with the Sponsor.
7. Male subjects should be willing to use a condom and spermicide during sexual activity for 90 days after last dosing of avanafil and be willing to not donate sperm for 90 days after dosing.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. A history or presence of significant cardiovascular (including thromboembolic disorders), neurological, hematological, psychiatric, hepatic, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, endocrine, immunologic or renal disease or other condition known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of drugs or place the subjects at increased risk as determined by the investigator.
2. Any clinically significant laboratory abnormalities as judged by the investigator. Inclusion of a subject with out of normal range laboratory values must be approved by VIVUS prior to subject enrollment.
3. A predisposition to priapism, such as subjects with sickle cell disease or blood dyscrasias.
4. Known history of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular event, any history of angina.
5. History or ECG evidence of any high-risk arrhythmia or ECG judged by the investigator to be clinically significant.
6. Hypertrophic obstructive or other clinically significant cardiomyopathy, moderate or severe cardiac valvular disease.
7. Subjects whose pulse is lower than 50 bpm at screening or 50 bpm prior to dosing for period 1 only.
8. Acute illness, especially any infection, within 2 weeks of dosing.
9. Systolic blood pressure \< 90 or \> 140 mmHg; diastolic blood pressure \< 60 or \> 95 mmHg at screening or on Day -1 (2 rechecks are allowed) for period 1 only.
