Bioequivalence Study of Sertraline Hydrochloride 100mg Tablets Under Fed Conditions

October 23, 2008 updated by: Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited

A Study to Compare the Relative Bioavailability of Ranbaxy and Pfizer Formulation of Sertraline 100 mg Tablets in Healthy Adult Volunteers Under Fed Conditions.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relative bioavailability of the test formulation of sertraline 100 mg tablets with an already marketed reference formulation Zoloft® 100 mg tablets (Pfizer), under non-fasting conditions in healthy male and female adult subjects.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This randomized, single-dose, two-way, crossover study was conducted to compare the relative bioavailability of two formulations of 100 mg sertraline hydrochloride tablets under non-fasting conditions. The study was conducted with 36 (34 completing) healthy adults in accordance with protocol No.

10540324 (Revision 0). In each study period, a single 100 mg dose was administered to the subjects following a standardized high fat breakfast preceded by an overnight fast of at least 10 hours. The test formulation was Ranbaxy Research Laboratory's Sertraline Hydrochloride 100 mg Tablets and the reference formulation was ZOLOFT® (sertraline hydrochloride) 100 mg Tablets Manufactured by Roerig (Division of Pfizer). The subjects received the test product in one study period and the reference product in the other period; the order of administration was according to the dosing randomization schedule. There was a 14-day interval between treatments.

Blood samples were collected pre-dose and at intervals over 144 hours after each dose. The plasma samples for all subjects completing both periods of the study were sent to Helen Fassoulas, B.Sc., Director of Operations, Warnex Bioanalytical Services Inc., 3885 boul Industriel, Laval, Quebec, H7LAS3 Canada, Telephone: 450-663-6724, ext. 438, FAX: 450-975-8111 for determination of sertraline plasma concentration.

Statistical analysis was performed by Yetta I. Wilbur, Biostatistician, Novum Pharmaceutical Research Services, 5900 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15206, USA, Telephone: 412-363-3300, Fax: 412-362-5783 to evaluate the relative bioavailability of the test formulation to that of the reference product.

A total of 36 healthy adult subjects.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 61 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All
