To study the effect of two drugs – Capecitabine 500 mg (Test product by Reliance Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd., India) and Xeloda® (Capecitabine 500 mg by Roche Pharma AG, Germany)

Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Patients of locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer or metastatic colorectal cancer or post-surgery stage III (Dukes’ stage C) colon cancer
Registration Number
CTRI/2014/10/005130
Lead Sponsor
Reliance Life Sciences Pvt Ltd
Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the bioequivalence between Test capecitabine 500 mg tablet manufactured by Reliance Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd., India with Xeloda® (capecitabine 500 mg) manufactured by Roche Pharma AG, GermanyThe patients will either be assigned to Test or Reference product. The bioequivalence will be assessed under fed conditions. In each period, all patients will observe overnight fasting of at least 10 hours prior to intake of a high calorie high fat breakfast. As per the randomization schedule, the patients will be administered a single dose of either Test capecitabine or Reference Xeloda® within 30 minutes after intake of a high calorie high fat breakfast. Patients will be instructed not to chew or crush the drug, and will be asked to take it with the specified quantity of water. Compliance will be assessed by conducting a thorough examination of the oral cavity using a flashlight and spatula by trained study personnel after each dosing.
