Detailed Description

This study is prospective, open-label, randomized, crossover, single dose, with 02 treatments, 02 sequences and 02 periods. The objective is to confirm if two formulations of Amoxicillin trihydrate, in the form powder for oral suspension, are bioequivalent. The test product is Amoxicillin trihydrate - Clamoxyl 500mg/5mL (Glaxo Wellcome Production.) in the form powder for oral suspension and reference product is Amoxil ® 500mg/5mL (GlaxoSmithKline Mexico SA) in the form of powder for oral suspension. Twenty eight healthy volunteers, of both genders, were evaluated. The volunteers received, in each period, the reference or the test formulation, according to the randomization list, under fasting conditions. In each period blood samples are collected in the following times: 0.00 (prior to administration of medication); 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 (after administration of medication). The comparative bioavailability of the two formulations was evaluated based in statistical comparisons of relevant pharmacokinetic parameters, obtained from data of drug concentrations in blood.

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Area Under the Curve of Plasma Concentration of Drug From Time 0 (Zero) to t (Last Measurable Concentration) (AUC0-t)
Time Frame: Collection points (hours [hrs]): 0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
The area under the plot of plasma concentration of drug against time (non-compartmental method), after drug administration, is defined as the area under the curve (AUC). AUC0-t is calculated from time 0 (prior to administration of medication) to time t (the time of the last quantifiable concentration). AUC is of particular use in estimating the bioavailability of drugs, by measuring the extent of absorption. ng, nanograms; mL, milliliter.
Collection points (hours [hrs]): 0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
Maximum Observed Concentration of Drug Through Time (Cmax)
Time Frame: Collection points (hrs): 0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
Cmax is defined as the maximum or "peak" concentration of a drug observed after its administration. Cmax is one of the parameters of particular use in estimating the bioavailability of drugs, by measuring the total amount of drug absorbed. Measurement is obtained directly from the plasma concentration curve of the drug (non-compartmental method).
Collection points (hrs): 0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
Area Under the Curve of Plasma Concentration of Drug From Time 0 (Zero) Extrapolated to Infinity (AUC0-inf)
Time Frame: Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods (Day 1 of Period 1[Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
Measurement of AUC0-inf is obtained directly from the plasma concentration curve of drug against time (non-compartmental method). AUC0-inf is calculated from time 0 (prior to administration of medication) extrapolated to infinity, by using the formula AUC0-inf = AUC0-t + Clast/Kel, where Clast is the last measurable concentration, and Kel is the first-order rate constant associated with the terminal portion of the curve. AUC is of particular use in estimating the bioavailability of drugs, by measuring the extent of absorption.
Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods (Day 1 of Period 1[Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
Time of Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax)
Time Frame: Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods: (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
The time of maximum observed concentration (Tmax) is obtained directly from the plasma concentration curve of the drug by non-compartimental method. Tmax is of particular use in measuring bioavailability, by measuring the time at which the maximum concentration is achieved.
Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods: (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
Percentage of AUC0-inf That is Due to Extrapolation From the Time of the Last Measurable Concentration to Infinity (AUC%Extrapolation)
Time Frame: Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods: (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
The percentage of AUC0-inf that is due to extrapolation from Tlast to infinity (AUC%Extrapolation) is calculated by using the formula AUC_%extrapolation = 100*(AUC0-inf minus AUC0-t)/AUC0-inf. The function of this parameter is to provide information about what percentage of the theoretical curve (AUC0-inf) was possible to determine experimentally (AUC0-t) Therefore, on average, it is expected that the residual area (AUCextrapolation) is not greater than 20%.
Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods: (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
Terminal Half-life (T1/2_Kel)
Time Frame: Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods: (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
T1/2_Kel is calculated by using the formula T1/2_Kel = Ln(2)/Kel.T1/2 is of particular use in measuring bioavailability, by measuring the elimination of the product.
Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods: (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
First-order Rate Constant Associated With the Terminal Portion of the Curve (Kel)
Time Frame: Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods: (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
This parameter is estimated via linear regression of time versus log concentration. It allows for the obtainment of estimates of T1/2 (T1/2=ln(2)/Kel) considering the schedule and the detection limits defined.
Collection points (hrs):0.00; 0.25; 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.25; 1.50; 1.75; 2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 4.00; 5.00; 6.00; 8.00 evaluated in both periods: (Day 1 of Period 1 [Day 1 of study]; Day 1 of Period 2 [Day 15 of study])
