Bioequivalence Minocycline Bioequivalence

June 21, 2017 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

Bioequivalence Study Between Two Medications for Oral Administration of Minocycline in 100 mg Oral Solids in Healthy Volunteers

The aim of the study is to compare the bioavailability of two medications containing 100 mg of minocycline in capsules to determine bioequivalence. They are Minocycline (Minocin® is a registered trademark of Wyeth Holdings Corporation), and Minocycline (Minopac® is a registered trademark of LABORATORIOS DERMATOLOGICOS DARIER, S.A. DE C.V.). Study design is randomized, open, cross-over with two single administrations with two periods and two sequences with a wash-out period of 7 days between the periods. Subjects in the study will be 25 healthy male volunteers, 18-55 years, Blood samples will be obtained at 0.0, 0.33, 0.66, 1.0, 1.33, 1.66, 2.0, 2.33, 2.66, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, 12.0, 16.0, 24.0, 48.0, and 72.0 hours after medication administration in each period. Plasma minocycline levels will be determined by HPLC method with UV detection with previously validated method. Minocycline concentration data will be used to calculate Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-inf with WinNonlin 5.3 software. The log transformed pharmacokinetics parameters of test and reference medications will be compared calculating ratios and 90% confidence intervals. Any adverse event will be reported.

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.
