This is a single-dose, Randomized, two-period,cross over pivotal study. The purpose of this study is to assess the bioequivalence between Test Product and the corresponding Reference Product under fed condition in normal, healthy, adult, human subjects.
Read the detailed description
Primary Objective of this pivotal study was to assess the bioequivalence between Test Product: Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride 5 mg Tablets of M/s Ipca Laboratories Limited, India and the corresponding Reference Product: Xyzal® (levocetirizine dihydrochloride) 5 mg Tablets of M/s UCB Inc.,USA, under fed condition in normal, healthy, adult, human subjects in a randomized crossover study.
Secondary Objective was to monitor the safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride 5 mg Tablets in normal,healthy, adult, human subjects.
The study was conducted with 28 healthy adult subjects. In each study period, a single 5 mg dose of either test or reference was administered to the subjects as per the randomization schedule in each study period with about 240 mL of water at ambient temperature in sitting position.
The duration of the clinical phase was approximately 11 days including washout period of at least 7 days between administrations of study drug in each study period.

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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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 is based on Cmax and AUC parameters. (time frame: 1 month). 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 3 Dec 2012.
