Summary
Levonorgestrel/ethinyl estradiol (LNG/EE) is an investigational drug that is being developed
as an oral contraceptive (birth control pill). The purpose of this trial is to compare
different preparations of LNG/EE by assessing the way they are absorbed into the blood.
Clinical Details
Official title: An Open-Label, Single-Dose, Randomized, 2-Period, Crossover, Bioequivalence Study to Compare Levonorgestrel 90 mg/Ethinyl Estradiol 20 mg in 2 Dosage Forms With Different Dissolution Characteristics in Healthy, Cycling Women
Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Crossover Assignment, Bio-equivalence Study
Primary outcome: To assess the bioequivalence of 2 batches of LNG/EE tablets with different dissolution characteristics
Secondary outcome: To obtain additional safety and tolerability data concerning LNG/EE in healthy, cycling women
