Bioequivalence of the pharmacokinetics between tofacitinib aspartate and tofacitinib citrate in healthy subjects.

ABSTRACT: Tofacitinib is an oral disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug to selectively inhibit Janus kinases. Tofacitinib is a representative small molecule inhibitor that is used to treat many diseases including rheumatoid arthritis and various autoimmune conditions. Unlike biological agents, tofacitinib has several advantages, including the ability to be administered orally and a short half-life. This study aimed to evaluate the bioequivalence of the pharmacokinetics (PK) between tofacitinib aspartate 7.13 mg (test formulation) and tofacitinib citrate 8.08 mg (reference formulation; Xeljanz®) in healthy subjects. A randomized, open-label, single-dose, 2-sequence, 2-period, 2-treatment crossover trial was conducted in 41 healthy volunteers. A total of 5 mg of tofacitinib as the test or the reference formulation was administered, and serial blood samples were collected up to 14 hours after dosing for PK analyses. The plasma concentration of tofacitinib was determined by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. A non-compartmental analysis was used to estimate the PK parameters. A total of 35 subjects completed the study and the study drug was well-tolerated. The mean maximum concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast) for the test formulation were 52.67 ng/mL and 133.86 ng?h/mL, respectively, and 50.61 ng/mL and 133.49 h?ng/mL for the reference formulation, respectively. The geometric mean ratios (90% confidence intervals) of the Cmax and AUClast between the 2 formulations were 1.041 (0.944-1.148) and 1.003 (0.968-1.039), respectively. Tofacitinib aspartate exhibited bioequivalent PK profiles to those of the reference formulation. Trial Registration:ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04278391.

Project description:BackgroundCloperastine is a pivotal antibechic widely prescribed to treat cough caused by respiratory diseases. The present trial evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PK), bioequivalence (BE) and safety effects of the generic test (T) tablet of cloperastine after single-dose administration of cloperastine, compared with the original reference (R) tablet of cloperastine.ObjectiveThe purpose of this trial was to compare the PK, BE and safety of a test 10 mg versus the reference 10 mg formulation of cloperastine under fasting and postprandial conditions in healthy Chinese volunteers.MethodsA single-centre, randomised, open, double-cycle, self-crossover, single oral administration Phase I trial was performed in healthy Chinese volunteers. A total of 60 subjects were enrolled in either the fasting (28 subjects) or the postprandial condition (32 subjects). Subjects randomly received a single dose of the T or R preparation (10 mg dose). Plasma concentrations of cloperastine were analysed by a validated LC-MS/MS method. The primary endpoints of the PK parameters were the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to 72 h (AUC0-72h), under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to infinity (AUC0-∞) and the maximal plasma concentration (Cmax). The equivalence standard range (80.0-125.0%) was used to evaluate the BE of the two preparations. The safety parameter as secondary endpoint was mainly evaluated by the occurrence of adverse events (AEs).ResultsA total of 25 and 30 subjects in the fasting and postprandial conditions completed this clinical trial, respectively. The geometric mean ratio (GMR) of the T/R for the Cmax, AUC0-72h and AUC0-∞ were 102.1%, 103.8% and 104.0% in the fasting condition, respectively. In the postprandial condition, the GMR of the T/R for the Cmax, AUC0-72h and AUC0-∞ were 94.2%, 98.8% and 99.0%, respectively. All the values fell within the range (80.0-125.0%). The Cmax and AUC0-72h values of the T and R preparations in fasting and postprandial conditions were not statistically significant (P > 0.05). Furthermore, no serious adverse events (SAEs) occurred during the whole trial.ConclusionsThe T and R preparations were bioequivalent under both conditions. Food has no significant effect on the absorption of cloperastine. Moreover, T and R preparations were well tolerated. The trial registration number (TRN) and date of registrations were CTR20212515, 13 October 2021.

Project description:The aim of the study was to determine the various pharmacokinetic parameters of the newly developed cost-effective aceclofenac 100 mg tablet formulation (F-15) and to establish the bioequivalence against the marketed brand (ACEMED). Both products (test and reference) were given to 12 healthy non-smokers male subjects with overnight fasting of >10hr. The study was a randomized, single-dose, open-label, two sequence, and two treatment crossover design, with a washout period of 2 weeks. Blood samples (5 mL) from the human subjects were collected before (0 hr) and after drug administration at 13different time points (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12 and 18 hrs). The drug plasma concentration was analyzed by a validated RP-HPLC method using a solvent system containing acetonitrile and deionized water (60:40% v/v). Linearity was found to be 0.999 over the drug concentration range of 50μg/mL to 0.05μg/mL with LLOQ and LOD of 0.05μg/mL and 0.025μg/mL respectively. Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using Kinetica® (ver. 5.1) software. Using the log-transformed data Cmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, AUMCtot, and MRT were calculated. The Cmax of the test and brand was found to be 8.629±1.251μg/mL and 8.478±0.913μg/mL. The AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ of the test and the reference were computed to be 20.890 ±2.2021μg/mL.h, 23.272 ±1.914 μg/mL.h and 19.850 ±2.911 μg/mL.h, 22.890 ± 2.110 μg/mL.h correspondingly. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test and two one-sided t-test (p>0.05; non-significant) were applied to assess the variation in the period, sequence, subjects, and treatment. Geometric mean ratios for above mentioned pharmacokinetic parameters of reference/test were found within the acceptable FDA limits of 80-125% using 90% CI. There was no inter and intrasubject variation (p> 0.05) that was observed. Therefore, the directly compressible aceclofenac (100 mg) test formulation and the commercial reference tablets were declared to be biosimilar.

Project description:BackgroundEzetimibe is a new class of antihyperlipidemic agent indicated for the prevention of atherosclerosis disease and for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. Information on the pharmacokinetic profiles of ezetimibe tablet in healthy Chinese volunteers are lacking, and regulatory requirements necessitate a bioequivalence study of ezetimibe tablet versus Ezetrol® in China.MethodsA single-dose randomized, open-label, two-group, two-period crossover study was conducted in 59 healthy Chinese volunteers under fasting or fed conditions to assess the bioequivalence between two preparations. Eligible participants were randomly divided into fasted and fed groups. Blood samples were collected at specified time intervals, and the plasma concentrations of ezetimibe and ezetimibe glucuronide were determined by a validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. PK and bioavailability parameters were estimated via non-compartmental methods. Adverse events were also recorded.ResultsFifty-nine healthy volunteers were enrolled in the study. The main pharmacokinetic parameters of total ezetimibe in the plasma of the ezetimibe tablet (10 mg) and the Ezetrol® (10 mg) after a single fasting administration: Cmax were (65.73 ± 47.14), (71.32 ± 51.98) ng·mL- 1; Tmax were 1.75, 1.25 h; T½ were (17.09 ± 13.22), (17.35 ± 12.14) h; AUC0-t were (643.34 ± 400.77), (668.49 ± 439.57) h·ng·mL- 1; AUC0-∞ were (706.36 ± 410.92), (734.23 ± 468.26) h·ng·mL- 1. The main pharmacokinetic parameters of total ezetimibe in plasma of ezetimibe tablet (10 mg) and Ezetrol® (10 mg) after a fed administration: Cmax were (83.38 ± 38.95), (84.74 ± 34.62) ng·mL- 1; Tmax were 2.50, 2.50 h; T½ were (22.56 ± 12.68), (19.80 ± 15.59) h; AUC0-t were (494.21 ± 208.65), (536.69 ± 209.11) h·ng·mL- 1; AUC0-∞ were (573.74 ± 252.74), (604.75 ± 247.13) h·ng·mL- 1. The main pharmacokinetic parameters Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ of the two drugs were analyzed by variance analysis after logarithmic transformation. The total ezetimibe under fasting state with 90% confidence intervals (CIs) were 85.29 ~ 97.19, 90.41% ~ 104.38%, and 90.81 ~ 106.05%; total ezetimibe in fed state were 86.36% ~ 109.17, 84.96% ~ 96.40, and 85.32% ~ 101.0%. The 90% CIs of the ratio of geometric means (GMRs) of Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ of Ezetrol® and ezetimibe tablet both fasting and fed conditions fell within the conventional bioequivalence criteria of 0.80-1.25. Both Cmax and AUC met the predetermined criteria for assuming bioequivalence. No severe adverse events were observed.ConclusionsThe test ezetimibe tablet and Ezetrol® were determined to be bioequivalent under both fasting and fed conditions in Chinese people.Trial registrationClinicaltrials, NCT05681247 (retrospectively registered in 11/01/ 2023).
