Study summary

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 or fed 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 or fed condition.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  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.

    Time frame: 36 hours post-dose on Day 1,7

  2. Tmax

    Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration

    Time frame: 36 hours post-dose on Day 1,7

  3. AUC(0-inf)

    Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve from Time 0 to Infinity for ritonavir

    Time frame: Time Frame: 36 hours post-dose on Day 1,7

  4. AUC(0-36h)

    Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to 36 hours Postdose for ritonavir
