Dear all,
I am intrested in knowing about conduct of "bioavailability studies comparing 1 sustained release tablet versus 2 immediate release tablets (dosed twice)". The SR tablet (e.g.: strength 20 mg) is dosed once while the IR tablet is dosed twice i.e. 1st 10 mg IR tablet at the time when 20 mg of SR tab is dosed and 2nd 10 mg IR tablet 12 hours after dosing.

Please explain?
  1. Need of comparing SR formulation with a IR formulation?
  2. Are there any regulatory guidances which give the procedure for conduct for this study?
  3. How do we report such type of studies?
Thanks & Regards
Taresh
