Condition(s) targeted: Healthy

Intervention: Telmisartan /HCTZ - compression tablet (DC) (Drug); Telmisartan /HCTZ - dry granulation tablet (DG) (Drug); Telmisartan /HCTZ - present commercial formulation (Drug)

Phase: Phase 1

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: Boehringer Ingelheim

Summary

Study to assess the comparative pharmacokinetics of telmisartan/HCTZ in two new formulations based on sodium salt compared to the present commercial formulation (MicardisPlus®)

Clinical Details

Official title: Relative Bioavailability of Telmisartan and HCTZ p.o. (80 mg Telmisartan/12.5 mg HCTZ) in Two Experimental Formulations (Given t.i.d. for One Day Each) Compared to the Standard Formulation 80 mg Telmisartan/12.5 mg HCTZ (MicardisPlus®), Given t.i.d. for One Day in Healthy Female and Male Subjects. A Three-way Crossover, Open, Randomised Study

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary outcome:

AUC0-∞ (Area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity)

Cmax (Maximum measured concentration of the analyte in plasma)

Amount of HCTZ excreted in urine over 48 hours (%Ae0-48h)

Secondary outcome:

tmax (Time from dosing to the maximum concentration of the analyte in plasma)

t1/2 (Terminal half-life of the analyte in plasma)

CLtot/F (Apparent clearance of the analyte in plasma following extravascular administration)

MRTtot (Total mean residence time)

Vz/F (Apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase λz following an extravascular dose)

Number of subjects with adverse events

Number of subjects with clinically significant findings in vital signs

Number of subjects with clinically significant findings in 12 lead ECG

Investigator's assessment of tolerability on a 4-point scale
