Brief summary: Azvudine(FNC)，a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, make itself a better candidate to be co-formulated in other anti-HIV therapies, thus to improve patient's compliance. FNC is a broad-spectrum RNA virus inhibitor that inhibits the novel coronavirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp).

This is a clinical study to evaluate the Interactions between Azvudine Tablets (FNC) and Rilpivirine Tablets (RPV) in healthy subjects. This is a single-center, randomized, open-label, three-cycles, three-treatment crossover clinical trial. Subjects was administered orally for 10 consecutive days each cycle, and the washout period between each cycle was 14 days. Biological sample collection and safety examination were performed.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Healthy male or female subjects aged 18 years or older (including 18 years) with an appropriate ratio of male to female participants;
2. The weight of men should be ≥ 50.0kg, and the weight of women should be ≥ 45.0kg. Body mass index (BMI) within the range of 19.0-26.0 (including the critical value).;
3. All fertile male and female subjects agreed to take appropriate and effective physical contraceptive measures from the screening period until the end of the trial, and to use effective physical and/or pharmacological contraceptive measures for 6 months after the trial ends, with no plans for sperm or egg donation;
4. Subjects fully understand the purpose, nature, process of the trial, and the potential adverse reactions, voluntarily agree to participate as subjects, and sign an informed consent form prior to the commencement of all study procedures;
5. Subjects must be able to communicate effectively with the researchers and understand and comply with all requirements of this study.

5. Individuals with a history of drug abuse or use of illicit substances within the 12 months prior to screening, including repeated or excessive use of various anesthetics and psychoactive substances, addictive drugs \[MDMA (Ecstasy), Methamphetamine (Ice), Ketamine, Morphine, THC (Marijuana)\] or those with a positive result on the five-panel drug test before enrollment;
6. Individuals who had undergone surgery within 3 months prior to screening, especially those who had surgeries affecting drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion, or who plan to undergo surgery during the study;
7. Individuals who had used any drug that interacts with the trial medication within 30 days prior to screening, e.g., CYP3A inhibitors (e.g., Itraconazole), CYP3A inducers (e.g., Carbamazepine, Phenytoin, St. John's Wort), proton pump inhibitors (e.g., Rabeprazole), etc.;
8. Individuals with a past medical history of cardiovascular, liver, kidney, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, neurological diseases, particularly any surgical conditions or diseases that might affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, or conditions that could pose risks to trial participants;
9. Individuals with a history of mental illness (e.g., anxiety, depression);
10. Individuals with febrile illnesses within 3 days prior to screening;
11. Individuals who had participated in other clinical trials and received medication within 3 months prior to screening;
