Study Overview

Brief Summary

A randomized, balanced, open label, crossover, two period, two treatment, two sequence, single dose, oral bioequivalence study under fasting condition. It is a pivotal study to demonstrate the bioequivalence of Metformin 1000 mg tablets manufactured by Savipharm J.S.C, Vietnam and Glucophage® 1000 mg tablets of Merck Sante, France in healthy adult human male subjects under fasting condition

Detailed Description

Sample Size Estimation Assuming the formulation ratio (T/R) 95-105% and with the maximum observable intra subject variability for Metformin is 22% (based on literature), a sample size of 29 subjects would be sufficient to prove bioequivalence between the two formulations with power of at least 90%. Hence, total 32 subjects will be enrolled in the study considering withdrawal and dropouts.

Screening procedures: Demographic data, medical and medication histories, complete physical examination, height, weight and BMI as well as 12 lead ECG, chest X-ray [PA view], vital signs [blood pressure, pulse rate, respiratory rate and oral temperature], hematology, biochemistry, HIV 1 & 2, Hepatitis B and C, RPR test for Syphilis and urine analysis will be done at screening.

Urine drug screen, Liver chemistry test and breath alcohol test to be done prior to each check-in.

Breath alcohol test to be done prior to each ambulatory visit blood collection. Liver chemistry test to be done at the end of each period. Housing: The study subjects will be housed at least 11 h prior to drug administration until after the 24 h blood sampling in each study period. The housing will be followed by one ambulatory visits [36.0 hr post dose] for each period.

Washout: At least 7 days, but not exceeding 14 days between two dosing days. Treatment arms: Test: A single dose of Metformin 500 mg tablet manufactured by Savipharm J.S.C, Vietnam.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, AUC%_Extrap, Kel and t1/2

Time Frame: 7 days

Statistical analyses will be done using SAS® version 9.2 or higher. Analysis of variance \[ANOVA\] for log-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters \[Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-∞\] and two one-sided tests \[Schuirmann\] for bioequivalence will be performed. Power, ratio and 90% confidence interval for log-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters - Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ will be calculated.The calculated 90% Confidence Interval for the test to reference ratio of Metformin should fall within the range of 80%-125% for log transformed Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ for the conclusion of bioequivalence

Secondary Outcomes

  • Safety profile(14 days)
