Bioequivalence Study of Two Formulations With the Association of Tenofovir 300 mg and Emtricitabine 200 mg.

October 20, 2015 updated by: Laboratorio Elea Phoenix S.A.
Objective: To evaluate the relative bioavailability of a new formulation containing a combination of emtricitabine 200 mg and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg (T) and compare this formulation with the branded formulation (R) to meet regulatory criteria for marketing the test product in Argentina.

Detailed Description

A randomized-sequence, open-label, two-period crossover study was conducted on 24 healthy Caucasian volunteers in a fasting state. A single oral dose of either T or R formulations was followed by a 7-day washout period. Blood samples were collected at baseline and 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 7, 12, 24 and 48 h after administration. Emtricitabine and tenofovir concentrations were determined using a validated LC (liquid chromatography) - MS (mass spectrometry) / MS method. Adverse events were monitored based on clinical parameters and volunteer reports.
