Bioequivalence Study of Rosuvastatin in Healthy Volunteers Under Fasting Condition

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Bioequivalence
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT05197517
Lead Sponsor
Rania Mahmoud Mohamed
Brief Summary

The present study is conducted to evaluate and compare the relative bioavailability for Rosuvastatin in two different products containing 10 mg film coated tablet after single oral administration.

Detailed Description

A Randomized, Single-Dose, Two-Way Crossover, Open-Label, Bioequivalence Study of the two different products containing 10 mg film coated tablet after oral administration to 38 healthy adult volunteers under fasting conditions. Blood samples were collected at different time intervals and stored at -70⁰C freezer. Plasma concentrations of Rosuvastatin were analyzed and determined using a validated LC-MS-MS method then pharmacokinetics and statistical analysis were performed.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.25, 4.5, 4.75, 5, 5.25, 6, 7, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours

Cmax is observed as the maximum of Rosuvastatin peak concentration

Area under the plasma concentration curve from administration to last observed concentration at time t (AUC(0-t))Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.25, 4.5, 4.75, 5, 5.25, 6, 7, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours

The AUC (0-t) is the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero (predose) to time of last quantifiable concentration (tlast).

Area under the plasma concentration curve extrapolated to infinite time (AUC(0-inf))Pre-dose to infinite time

AUC(0-inf) "the area under the curve," which is a way of measuring the total amount of the active drug in a subject's system over a period of time from administration ("0") to the time that the drug is no longer present in the subject's body ("infinity")

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum time (Tmax)Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.25, 4.5, 4.75, 5, 5.25, 6, 7, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours

Time until Cmax is reached

Elimination Rate Constant (Kel)Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.25, 4.5, 4.75, 5, 5.25, 6, 7, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours

Kel is a value used in pharmacokinetics to describe the rate at which a drug is removed from the human system

Plasma concentration half-life (t1/2)Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.25, 4.5, 4.75, 5, 5.25, 6, 7, 10, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours

t1/2 is the time taken for the plasma concentration of a drug to reduce to half its original value. It is used to estimate how long it takes for a drug to be removed from your body.
