About this study
Official title: Bioavailability of a Formulation of Duloxetine 60 mg Capsules With Enteric Coated Granules With Regards to the Marketed Reference Product
This Study will investigate the bioavailability in fasting subjects of 1 capsule formulation containing Duloxetine 60 mg. The Study will be performed at a single site with 36 subjects. Participants will take 1 capsule of the test product and reference product in 2 periods and 2 sequences (either test after reference or reference after test). There will be a washout of at least 14 days between each study period.
Read the detailed description
The primary objective of the study is to investigate the relative bioavailability of Duloxetine of 1 capsule formulation with Duloxetine 60 mg to demonstrate bioequivalence of both formulations in terms of rate and extent of absorption:
- Test Product: Product manufactured by Laboratorios Andrómaco S.A.
- Reference Product: Cymbalta[Trademark], product of Eli Lilly, Puerto Rico. The 90% confidence intervals for the intra-subject coefficient of variation (Test versus Reference Product) for the main pharmacokinetic parameters area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to time t (AUC0-t) and from time zero to 72 hours (AUC0-72), and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) for total Duloxetine will be determined.
Participants will be confined in the study site for approximately 25,5 hours during each study period (for 10 hours pre-dosing and for 15,5 hours post dosing) during which pharmacokinetic (PK) blood samples will be obtained. 17 blood samples will be taken up to 24 hours after the administration in each period. Participants will return to the site to provide additional blood samples at 48 h, and 72 h postdose.The washout period between the two study periods will be at least 14 days.
The samples from each participant will be analyzed with 2 methods of high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry bioanalytical assays to quantify total Duloxetine in plasma.
The safety objective is to evaluate the tolerability of both formulations in subjects by collecting adverse events.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Duloxetine 60mg Test Drug Enteric Coated Granules and Duloxetine 60mg Reference Product Enteric Coated Granules in people with Bioequivalence, run by Laboratorios Andromaco S.A. at 1 site in Chile.
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 5 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 15 Apr 2021. 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 Chile. 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?
Total Duloxetine: area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 72 hours (AUC0-72) ] (time frame: [Time Frame: From tablet intake and up to 72 hours after tablet intake]). 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 15 Apr 2021.
