Bioequivalence Study of 120 mg Etoricoxib Film-coated Tablets

January 30, 2018 updated by: Dexa Medica Group

Bioequivalence Study of 120 mg Etoricoxib Film-coated Tablet Produced by PT Dexa Medica in Comparison With the Comparator Drug (Arcoxia® Film-coated Tablet 120 mg, Frosst Iberica S.A., Spain, for Merck Sharp & Dohme (Australia) Pty Limited, Australia, Registered by PT Schering-Plough Indonesia, Tbk.)

The present study was a randomized, open-label, two-period, two-sequence, cross-over study, conducted to find out whether the etoricoxib 120 mg film-coated tablet produced by PT Dexa Medica (test drug) was bioequivalent to the reference drug (Arcoxia® Film-Coated Tablet 120 mg, PT. Schering-Plough Indonesia Tbk), under fasting condition with a fourteen days wash-out period, involving 26 healthy adult male and female subjects.

Detailed Description

This was a randomized, open-label, two-period, two-sequence, cross-over study under fasting condition with a fourteen days wash-out period, involving 26 healthy adult male and female subjects. The participating subjects had an overnight fast and in the next morning were given orally either one film-coated tablet of the test drug or one film-coated tablet of the reference drug with 200 mL of water. Blood samples were drawn immediately before taking the drug (baseline), and at 15, 30, and 45 minutes and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 72 hours after drug administration, analysed for plasma concentrations of etoricoxib and used to evaluate the pharmacokinetics parameters of the single dose administration. After a fourteen-day washout period, the procedure was repeated using the alternate drug. The plasma concentrations of etoricoxib were determined by using a high pressure liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) method.

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

18 years to 55 years (Adult)
