简要总结
This is an open label, randomized, two treatment, two period, two sequence crossover bioequivalence study conducted at steady state in adult schizophrenic patients who are already receiving a stable dose of clozapine 100 mg twice daily at 12 hour intervals. The objective of the study is to demonstrate bioequivalence between Clozapine Tablets 100 mg and Leponex Clozapine 100 mg Tablets manufactured by Viatris Healthcare GmbH. Eligible patients will receive both the test and reference formulations under steady state conditions, and pharmacokinetic parameters such as Cmax at steady state and AUC over the dosing interval will be evaluated to assess bioequivalence. Safety and tolerability will also be monitored throughout the study.
