About
The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate the bioequivalence of two ibuprofen arginine granules 400 milligram (mg) formulations under fasting and fed conditions in Chinese healthy adult participants. The secondary purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic and safety profile of the test and reference preparations.
Full description
The bioequivalence study adopts a single-center, randomized, open-label, single-dose, two-treatment, two-sequence, two-period, two-cohort, two-way crossover design with at least 2-day washout period, under both fasting and fed conditions in Chinese healthy adult participants. It will be planned to enroll approximately 84 participants out of which the first 34 participants for the fasted cohort and the subsequent 50 participants for the fed cohort receiving ibuprofen arginine granules 400 mg. Participants will be randomly assigned to either one of the 2 treatment (Test or Reference product) sequences in a 1:1 ratio within fasted cohort and fed cohort.

Female participant who are not of childbearing potential must meet requirements in the Contraception section of protocol.
Exclusion criteria
-
Known or suspected intolerance or hypersensitivity or photosensitivity to the investigational products (or closely related compounds) or any of their stated ingredients.
-
Allergy to skin disinfecting agents, tape, or latex rubber, whenever appropriate substitutions cannot be applied or in the investigator's opinion may pose a risk to the candidate.
-
Diagnosis of long QT syndrome or QTcF > 450 millisecond (msec) at screening.
-
Clinically significant vital sign abnormalities (systolic blood pressure lower than 90 or over 140 millimeters of mercury (mmHg), diastolic blood pressure lower than 60 or over 90 mmHg, or pulse rate less than 50 or over 100 beats per minute [bpm]).
-
Use of any medication (including over-the-counter medications and Chinese herbal and traditional remedies) within 2 weeks before first scheduled study drug administration or within less than 10 times the elimination half-life of the concomitant medication (whichever is longer) or is anticipated to require any concomitant medication during that period or at any time throughout the study. Allowed treatments are:
- systemic contraceptives and hormone replacement therapy, as long as female participant is on stable treatment for at least 3 months before first scheduled study drug administration and continues treatment throughout the study.
- occasional use of acetaminophen (up to 2 grams [g] in 24 hours).
-
Participants has a history of drug abuse or has positive urine drug abuse screening at screening or on Day-1.

-
Acute or chronic medical condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the participant inappropriate for entry into this study. Or any condition not identified in the protocol that in the opinion of the investigator would confound the evaluation and interpretation of the study data or may put the participant at risk.
-
Evidence or history of clinically significant hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic, psychiatric, neurologic, or allergic disease within the last 5 years that may increase the risk associated with study participation.
