Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this bioequivalence study is to determine and compare the rate and extent of absorption and to evaluate safety of test and reference formulations. Study Design: An open label, randomized, two-treatment, four-period, two-sequence replicate crossover bioequivalence study in 46 healthy Thai volunteers under fasting conditions with at least 7 days washout period.


Description:

The primary objective of this bioequivalence study is to assess and compare the rate and extent of absorption of a test formulation against a reference formulation, with an additional focus on evaluating the safety profiles of both formulations. This study aims to provide critical insights into the bioequivalence of the two formulations, shedding light on their pharmacokinetic parameters and overall safety in the context of therapeutic efficacy. Study Design: The study adopts an open-label, randomized, two-treatment, four-period, two-sequence replicate crossover design to ensure robustness and reliability in the evaluation of bioequivalence. The crossover design minimizes the impact of inter-individual variability, allowing for a more accurate assessment of the formulations' performance. Participant Selection: A total of 46 healthy Thai volunteers will be recruited to participate in the study. The inclusion criteria involve individuals who meet specific health standards and are willing to comply with the study requirements. The emphasis on recruiting healthy volunteers aims to establish a baseline for comparison, ensuring that any observed differences in absorption and safety can be attributed to the formulations under investigation. Study Conditions: The study will be conducted under fasting conditions to isolate the impact of the formulations on absorption without interference from food-related variables. Fasting conditions provide a controlled environment to evaluate the formulations' performance and allow for a more accurate determination of bioequivalence.

Normal laboratory values, including vital signs and physical examination, for all parameters in clinical laboratory tests at screening. Any abnormalities from the normal or reference range will be carefully considered clinically relevant by the physician as individual cases, documented in study files prior to enrolling the subject in this study. 4. Non-pregnant woman (negative pregnancy test) and not currently breast feeding 5. Female subjects abstain from either hormonal method of contraception (including oral or transdermal contraceptives, injectable progesterone, progestin subdermal implants, progesterone-releasing Intrauterine Device (IUDs), postcoital contraceptive methods) or hormone replacement therapy for at least 28 days prior to check-in in Period 1. Injectable contraceptives e.g. Depo-Provera® will be discontinued at least 6 months prior to check-in in Period 1. Subjects agree to use acceptable non-hormonal contraceptive methods such as condom, diaphragm, foams, jellies, or abstinence for at least 14 days prior to check-in in Period 1 until 7 days after the end of study in Period 4. Female subjects of non-childbearing potential must meet at least one of the following criteria prior to check-in in Period 1: Postmenopausal for at least 1 year or surgically sterile (bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy) at least 6 months. 6. Male subjects who are willing or able to use effective contraceptive e.g. condom or abstinence after check-in in Period 1 until 7 days after the end of study in Period 4. 7. Have voluntarily given written informed consent (signed and dated) by the subject prior to participating in this study Exclusion Criteria: 1. History of allergic reaction or hypersensitivity to simvastatin or to any excipients of tablet 2. History or evidence of clinically significant renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, hematological (e.g. anemia), endocrine (e.g. hyper-/hypothyroid, diabetes), pulmonary or respiratory (e.g. asthma), cardiovascular (e.g. hyper-/hypotension), psychiatric (e.g. depression), neurologic (e.g. convulsant), allergic disease (including drug allergies, but excluding untreated, asymptomatic, seasonal allergies at time of dosing) or any significant ongoing chronic medical illness 3. History or evidence of muscular disease e.g. muscle pain, tenderness, weakness, myopathy or rhabdomyolysis 4. Have high risk for coronavirus infection based on risk assessment questionnaire or diagnosed as confirmed case of coronavirus disease starting in 2019 (COVID-19) 5. History about administration of COVID-19 vaccine within 30 days prior to check-in in each Period 6. History of problems with swallowing tablet or capsule 7. History or evidence of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption 8. History of sensitivity to heparin or heparin-induced thrombocytopenia 9.

History of diarrhea or vomiting within 24 hours prior to check-in in each period 11. 12-lead ECG demonstrating corrected QT interval (QTc) >450 msec, a QRS Complex (QRS interval) >120 msec or with an abnormality considered clinically significant at screening. If QTc exceeds 450 msec, or QRS exceeds 120 msec, the ECG will be repeated two more times and the average of the three QTc or QRS values will be used to determine the subject's eligibility. 12. Investigation with blood sample shows positive test for HBsAg. 13. History or evidence of drug addict or investigation with urine sample shows a positive test for drug of abuse (morphine, marijuana or methamphetamine) 14.
