1.Volunteers must be receiving stable doses of capecitabine (e.g. 2500 mg/m2/day in two divided dose) for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer (in combination with docetaxel), Dukesâ?? C colon cancer following complete resection, and metastatic colorectal carcinoma in combination with capecitabine (e.g. 2500 mg/m2/day in two divided doses).
a.Patients must have completed at least one 21-day cycle of capecitabine (i.e. 14 days of capecitabine and 7 days washout) at the dose to be utilized in this study.
b.The dose of capecitabine must be administered as a multiple of the intact, unbroken, 500 mg tablet.
2.Cancer patients with monotherapy are preferred. However, cancer patients receiving concomitant drug(s) are allowed to participate, provided:
a.The concomitant medication is the same during all study days. Each concurrent medication will be documented and clearly identified. Information recorded will include at least the following information: generic name, strength, dosing regimen, and time of dosing.
b.The subjects will follow the same dosing regimen for the concurrent medications for all dosing of the bioequivalent study.
c.Patients will not change their concurrent medications during the BE study.
d.Prior to inclusion of the subject into the study, a list of all concurrent medications will be provided to the sponsor for approval.
1.3.Age:18 â?? 80 years of age (inclusive)
2.4.Sex:Females of non-childbearing potential and Males (with equal numbers of each sex, if possible).
a.Women will not be considered of childbearing potential if one of the following is reported and documented on the medical history:
i.postmenopausal with spontaneous amenorrhea for at least one (1) year, or
ii.bilateral oophorectomy with or without a hysterectomy and an absence of bleeding for at least 6 months, or
iii.total hysterectomy and an absence of bleeding for at least 3 months.

7.Tobacco Use: Non-smokers to moderate-smokers ( < 20 cigarettes per day) will be eligible to participate in this study.

a.Normal or non-clinically significant physical examination including vital signs (respiration rate, blood pressure, temperature and heart rate).
b.Within normal limits or non-clinically significant laboratory evaluation results, (unless otherwise noted in the exclusion criteria), for the following tests:
i.Serum Chemistries
ii.Hematology
iii.Urinalysis
c.negative Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C tests,
d.negative HIV test,
e.INR within normal range
f.normal or non-clinically significant 12-lead ECG
g.negative urine drug screen for all of the following compounds: amphetamin

b.Use of any prescription or over-the-counter (OTC) medications within the 24 hours prior to the initial dose of study medication, except for any necessary medication for which dosing has been stabilized for a period of at least 21 days and is expected to remain stable for the entire study.
c.Use of any medication known to induce or inhibit hepatic enzyme activity within 28 days prior to the initial dose of study medication except for any necessary medication for which dosing has been stabilized for a period of at least 28 days and is expected to remain stable for the entire study.
