 Steady state BE study dosing [Design Issues]

Dear All,

We are planning a steady state bioequivalence study on healthy subject with tid dosing (every 8 hours) on day 1 to day 4. Serial PK blood sample collections are planned on Day 5 after morning dosing(expected to reach steady state concentration on day 5).

Kindly clarify, whether 2nd and 3rd dose on day 5 need to be administered or not? and sampling should be continued for 24 hours?

Thanks in advance!

Regards
NK

 Circadian rhythm?

Hi NK,

❝ We are planning a steady state bioequivalence study on healthy subject with tid dosing (every 8 hours) on day 1 to day 4. Serial PK blood sample collections are planned on Day 5 after morning dosing(expected to reach steady state concentration on day 5).

If you have evidence from peer-reviewed literature that the PK of the drug is not subjected to a circadian rhythm, the profile after the first dose in steady state is sufficient. Otherwise, you have to dose also tid on day 5 and the primary PK metric for the extent of absorption will be AUCss,0–24h. A ‘classical’ example is theophylline.

So you are asking for protocol preparation consideration. The study is in healthy volunteers- so I believe that AUC0-t/AUC0-inf>=0.8 also needs to be followed, so consider sampling accordingly.

 AUC in steady state

Hi Divyen,

❝ So you are asking for protocol preparation consideration. The study is in healthy volunteers- so I believe that AUC0-t/AUC0-inf>=0.8 also needs to be followed, so consider sampling accordingly.

Here you err. Neither AUC0–t nor AUC0– are PK metrics of the extent of absorption in steady state.

 AUC in steady state

Hi Helmut!
Thank you for correcting me.
Seems an EMA Study because of steady state requirement.

Hi Divyen,

❝ Thank you for correcting me.

No worries, I err all the time… :-D
Background and some ideas.
