Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy adult participants
Registration Number
JPRN-jRCT2080223807
Lead Sponsor
TAKEDA PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY LTD.
Brief Summary

Evaluation of bioequivalence between single dosing of one Vortioxetine 20 mg tablet under fasted conditions and single dosing of two Vortioxetine 10 mg tablets under fasted conditions in healthy adults showed that the two formulations were biologically equivalent. Single dosing of one Vortioxetine 20 mg tablet or two Vortioxetine 10 mg tablets in healthy adults under fasted conditions was well tolerated with no safety concerns.
