Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of this study is to compare the bioavailability of two formulations (tablets and granules for dispersion) of the antimalarial drug pyronaridine-artesunate [3:1] (Pyramax, PA) in healthy adults. The secondary objective is to compare the safety of the two PA formulations and liver function test changes following the first and second administrations.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a Phase I, single centre, open-label, randomised, two-way cross-over study in healthy volunteers to compare the bioavailability of two formulations of pyronaridine-artesunate, in tablet and in granule formulation. The study population will include 60 healthy volunteers, comprising male and female adults aged 20 to 45 years inclusive. The volunteers will be randomised equally on Day -1 to one of two sequences: Sequence 1 (tablets in Period 1, granules in Period 2), or Sequence 2 (granules in Period 1, tablets in Period 2). The periods will be separated by a 60-day wash-out period. Each of the two pyronaridine-artesunate formulations will be administered as a single dose of either 180:60 mg pyronaridine-artesunate tablets (3 tablets) or 60:20 mg pyronaridine-artesunate granules (9 sachets). The total dose of each formulation administered is 540:180 mg pyronaridine-artesunate. The study duration from the first study drug administration (Day 1) through to the last follow-up will be approximately 103 days. Screening is to be performed within 28 days before Day 1. Adverse events will be monitored throughout the study (and to resolution if necessary) to assess the general safety and tolerability of the treatments. ;
