Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Sex: Male and Female; similar proportion of each preferred.
  • Age: At least 18 years.
  • Qualifying subjects must be in good health and physical condition as determined by medical history, complete physical examination, and laboratory tests, all obtained within four (4) weeks prior to study start. The subject may not have a history of significant past illness expected to affect the investigation. The normal status of subjects will be confirmed by the following procedures:
  • Laboratory Tests: Hemoglobin, hematocrit, RBC, WBC, differential count, serum electrolytes (Na, K, CL), fasting blood glucose, BUN, bilirubin, creatinine, AST, ALT, LD, alkaline phosphatase, and urinalysis. HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and drugs of abuse testing will be done for screening purposes only. Urine drugs of abuse testing will be repeated at each check-in. Female subjects will have a serum pregnancy test done at screening and urine pregnancy test prior to each study period at check-in. Laboratory values which are greater than :E20% of the normal range will not qualify unless specifically accepted (with comment) by the Principal Investigator. Results of HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and drugs of abuse must be negative or non-reactive for the subject to qualify for the study.
  • Electrocardiogram: A 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) will be obtained for all subjects. The original tracings, plus interpretation, will be included in the case report form packet.
  • Subjects must read and sign the Consent Form.

Who cannot join

  • Subjects not complying with the above inclusion criteria must be excluded from the study.
  • In addition, any one of the conditions listed below will exclude a subject from the study:
  • History of treatment for alcoholism, substance abuse, or drug abuse within past 24 months.
  • History of malignancy, stroke, diabetes, cardiac, renal or liver disease, or other serious illness.
  • History of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), malabsorption syndrome, colon cancer, or chronic colitis, including Crohn's disease.
  • History of treatment for astlzurta within the past five (5) years.

  • History of neurological impairment.
  • History of seizures.
  • History of Parkinson's Disease.
  • History of diabetes mellitus.
  • Females who are pregnant or lactating.
  • History of hypersensitivity to fluoxetine HCL, or any serotonin reuptake inhibitor.
  • Conditions upon screening which might contraindicate or require that caution be used in the administration of fluoxetlne HCL, including:
  • Sitting systolic blood pressure below 90 mm Hg, or diastolic Pressure below 50 mm Hg.
  • Heart rate less than 50 beats per minute after a 5-minute rest
  • Inability to read and/or sign the consent form.
  • Treatment with any other investigational drug during the four (4) weeks prior to the initial dosing for this study.
  • Subjects who have donated blood within four (4) weeks prior to the Initial dosing for this study.

About this study

Official title: The Objective of This Randomized, Single-dose, Two-way Evaluation is to Compare the Bioequivalence of a Test Fluoxetine HCL Formulation (Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited, Lot No. 6320101) to an Equivalent Oral Dose of the Commercially Available Fluoxetine HCL (Prozac®, Dista Products Company, Lot No 6RK57M) in a Test Population of 36 Adult Subjects Under Fasting Conditions.

The objective of this study is to compare the relative bioavailability of fluoxetine HCL 40 mg capsules (by Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited) with that of PROZAC® 40 mg capsules (by Dista Products Company) following a single oral dose (1 x 40 mg capsule) in healthy, adult subjects under fasting conditions

Read the detailed description

This is a single-dose, open-label, randomized two-way crossover study to evaluate the bioequivalence of a test formulation, versus an equivalent dose of a commercially available reference drug product, in 36 adult subjects, under fasted conditions. Drug administrations are separated by at least 49 days.

Vital signs (sitting blood pressure and pulse rate) were obtained at baseline (Hour 0), and at post-dose Hours 3, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 360, and 1056.

Of the 36 subjects enrolled into the study, 31 subjects completed the study in its entirety. Five (5) subjects were dropped out from the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing fluoxetine HCL 40 mg capsules in people with Healthy, run by Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Bioequivalence. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Dec 2009.
