About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Randomized Bioequivalence Study (Preliminary Study) of Ritonavir Versus NORVIR in Healthy Chinese Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence of Ritonavir tablet 100 mg versus NORVIR 100 mg tablet in healthy Chinese adult participants under fasting condition.

Read the detailed description

The study design is an Open-Label Randomized, Single-Dose, 2-way Crossover Bioequivalence Study with a washout period of 6 days. During each session, the subjects will be administered a single dose of 100mg Ritonavir (one Ritonavir Tablet 100mg or one NORVIR Tablet 100mg) under fasting condition.

Being tested
Ritonavir Tablet 100mg, NORVIR tablet 100mg

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ritonavir Tablet 100mgDrug

    Ritonavir Tablet 100mg is a generic product manufactured by Ascletis Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

  • NORVIR tablet 100mgDrug

    NORVIR Tablet is a generic product manufactured by AbbVie. NORVIR Tablet 100mg will be used as a comparator drug for the BE study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration for ritonavir

    Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) is the peak plasma concentration of a drug after administration, obtained directly from the plasma concentration-time curve.

    Measured: 36 hours post-dose on Day 1,7,13 and 19

  2. Tmax

    Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration

    Measured: 36 hours post-dose on Day 1,7,13 and 19

  3. AUC(0-inf): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve from Time 0 to Infinity for ritonavir

    AUC (0-inf) is a measure of total plasma exposure to the drug from time zero extrapolated to infinity

    Measured: Time Frame: 36 hours post-dose on Day 1,7,13 and 19

  4. AUC(0-36h): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to 36 hours Postdose for ritonavir

    AUC(0-36h) is measure of area under the plasma concentration and time curve from Time 0 to 36 hours postdose.

    Measured: 36 hours post-dose on Day 1,7,13 and 19

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ritonavir Tablet 100mg and NORVIR tablet 100mg in people with Healthy Volunteer, run by First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University at 2 sites in China.

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 7 inclusion and 16 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 3 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. 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.

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?

Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration for ritonavir (time frame: 36 hours post-dose on Day 1,7,13 and 19). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 Oct 2017.
