About this study

Official title: Randomized, Single-dose, Crossover, Two-period, Two-sequence, Laboratory-blinded, Comparative Bioavailability Study of Meloxicam 15 mg Tablets in Healthy Volunteers Under Fasting Condition.

The aim of the study was to compare the bioavailability of two formulations of meloxicam given to healthy volunteers and to demonstrate bioequivalence. The test product, Reumoxicam® 15 mg tablets (Farmak PJSC, Ukraine), given in a single dose was compared with a licensed reference product Movalis 15 mg tablets ("Boehringer Ingelheim Ellas A.E.", Greece), in a randomized, laboratory-blind, single dose, two periods, crossover study.

The secondary objective of the trial was to investigate the safety of both preparations on the basis of safety clinical and laboratory examinations (at the beginning and at the end of the trial) and registration of adverse events and/ or adverse drug reactions.

Randomized, single-dose, crossover, two-period, two-sequence, laboratory-blinded, comparative bioavailability study of test medicinal product Reumoxicam® 15 mg tablets (PJSC "Farmak", Ukraine) and reference medicinal product Movalis 15 mg tablets ("Boehringer Ingelheim Ellas A.E.", Greece) in healthy volunteers under fasting condition.

During each period 18 blood samples were taken: before dosing (0) and then at: 0.5; 1; 2; 3; 4; 4.5; 5; 5.5; 6; 7; 8; 10; 12; 24; 36; 48 and 72 hours after dosing.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Reumoxicam® 15 mg tablets (PJSC "Farmak", Ukraine) and Movalis 15 mg tablets ("Boehringer Ingelheim Ellas A.E.", Greece) in people with Pharmacokinetics, run by Joint Stock Company "Farmak".

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 10 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 18 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

AUC0-t (time frame: up to 72 hours post-administration). The study lists 2 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 18 Nov 2021.
