Assessment of 2012 Bioequivalence Standards for Warfarin
Assessment of 2012 Bioequivalence Standards for Narrow Therapeutic Index Drugs: a Study With Warfarin
Study Overview
Detailed Description
This study is a reasonable starting point to assess the appropriateness of the 2012 FDA bioequivalence (BE) statistical criteria for narrow therapeutic index drugs (NTIDs). The idea stems from an earlier study conducted in Dr. Benet's lab with the drug furosemide. The furosemide study yielded triplicate data that were unable to purely meet the BE statistical criteria set forth by the FDA due to the inherent study design. Furosemide is not an NTID to be considered by the FDA for BE studies, however. Hence, the investigators have proposed a new study to assess the BE statistical criteria with warfarin, an NTID with a draft guidance issued by the FDA. By providing the reference product (brand name warfarin) three times to each study participant and recording the relevant pharmacokinetic parameters for BE (AUC and Cmax), the investigators can make three comparisons between the data (R1 and R2 vs. R2 and R3; R1 and R2 vs. R1 and R¬3; R2 and R3 vs. R1 and R3).
The investigators have three concerns that can be tested here.
- Will normal within subject variability potentially lead to inequivalence of the reference product using the new NTID BE regulations?
- Is it possible that the BE interval could be less than the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) content uniformity limits for warfarin?
- Provide a comparison of the within-subject variance for the 2.5 ratio comparison.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
S- and R- enantiomers of warfarin (S-warfarin, R-warfarin) Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) from 0 to 72 hours
Time Frame: 0 to 72 hours after warfarin dosing
|
The primary outcome measure will be warfarin area-under-the-concentration-time curve (AUC) values from zero to seventy-two (0-72) hours.
Values from the Experimental Arm (warfarin) of each the 3 study periods will be compared against each other and analyzed for intra-individual variability and tested for bioequivalence using the new narrow therapeutic index drug (NTID) regulations.
Blood collection at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 hours after warfarin dosing.
|
0 to 72 hours after warfarin dosing
|
Secondary Outcome Measures

Time Frame |
---|---|---|
S- and R- enantiomers of warfarin (S-warfarin, R-warfarin) Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC) from time zero to infinity hours
Time Frame: 0 to 8 weeks after warfarin dosing
|
A secondary outcome measure will be warfarin area-under-the-concentration-time curve (AUC) values from zero to infinite time (0-inf) where infinite time represents the duration of the study (8 weeks).
Values from the Experimental Arm (warfarin) of each the 3 study periods will be compared against each other and analyzed for intra-individual variability and tested for bioequivalence using the new narrow therapeutic index drug (NTID) regulations.
Analysis of all concentration-time data; blood collection at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72 hours after warfarin dosing.
|

Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of S-warfarin and R-warfarin
Time Frame: 0 to 72 hours after warfarin dosing
|
A secondary outcome measure will be maximum plasma concentration (Cmax).
Values from the Experimental Arm (warfarin) of each the 3 study periods will be compared against each other and analyzed for intra-individual variability and tested for bioequivalence using the new narrow therapeutic index drug (NTID) regulations.
Blood collection 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after warfarin dosing.
