Clinical Details
Official title: An Open Label, Balanced, Randomized, Two-treatment, Four-period, Two-sequence, Single Oral Dose, Crossover, Fully Replicate Bioequivalence Study of Two Formulations of Valsartan 320 mg Tablet in Healthy, Adult, Human Subjects Under Fasting Condition
Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Bio-equivalence Study, Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment, Masking: Open Label
Primary outcome: Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) and Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Valsartan
Detailed description:
Tablet in healthy, adult human subjects under fasting condition, with a screening period of
28 days prior to dose administration in Period-I. In each study period, twenty-four (24)
blood samples, including two (02) predose blood samples, each of 02 mL were collected from
each subject except for the discontinued / withdrawn subjects to analyze the pharmacokinetic
profile of the test as well as the reference product.
The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated from the drug concentration vs. time profile
by non-compartmental model using WinNonlin Professional Software-Version 5. 3 (Pharsight
Corporation, USA) for Valsartan. Statistical comparison of the pharmacokinetic parameters of
the two formulations was carried out using PROC MIXED of SAS® Version 9. 3 (SAS Institute
Inc., USA) to assess the bioequivalence of both the formulations.
