Inclusion criteria

Healthy male literate volunteers of 18 to 45 years with of 18.50 - 29.99 Kg/m2 and weight > 50 Kg.

Healthy volunteers as evaluated by medical history, vitals and general clinical examination.

Normal or clinically insignificant biochemical, hematological, urine and serology parameters.

Normal or clinically insignificant . Negative urine test for drugs of abuse, alcohol breath analysis. Volunteers who are willing to use acceptable methods of . Volunteers who can give written and communicate effectively.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

History of any major surgical procedure in the past 03 months. History of any cardiac, gastrointestinal, respiratory, hepatic, renal, endocrine, neurological, metabolic, psychiatric and hematological disorders.

History of chronic alcoholism/ chronic smoking/ drug of abuse. Volunteers with known to Pomalidomide or any of the .

History of consumption of tobacco containing products within 48 hours prior to proposed time of dosing Volunteer who are positive for surface antigen, anti- antibody, treponemal antibodies and (HIV 1\&2) antibodies.

Present or past history of intake of drugs or any prescription drug or over the counter (OTC) drugs within 14 days which potentially modify kinetics / dynamics of Pomalidomide or any other medication judged to be clinically significant by the investigator.

History of consumption of grapefruit and/or its products within 10 days prior to the start of study.

Volunteer who had participated in any other clinical study or who had bled during the last 03 months before check-in.

History of consumption of one or more of the below, 48 hours prior to dosing: Xanthine containing food or drinks such as cola, chocolate, coffee or tea, citrus fruits or items (lime, lemon and orange), alcohol and any other food/beverage known to have interactions as deemed by the investigator Volunteers who are dysphagic

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(10)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

BMI (body mass index)

Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.

What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Cmax

    Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax). T/R of Cmax R within 80-125% for IC 90% vs the Comparator; also to generate pharmacokinetic data that can be used to design a pivotal bioequivalence study.

    Time frame: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3 of cycle 1, Day 8, Day 9, Day 10 of cycle 2.

  2. AUC0-t

    Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from 0 to the last measurable concentration (AUC0-t). T/R of AUC 0-t within 80-125% for 90% CI vs the Comparator.

    Time frame: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3 of cycle 1, Day 8, Day 9, Day 10 of cycle 2. 90% CI of T/R within 80-125%

  3. AUC0-inf

    Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from 0 to the last measurable concentration (AUC0-t). T/R of AUC 0-t within 80-125% for 90% CI vs the Comparator.

    Time frame: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3 of cycle 1, Day 8, Day 9, Day 10 of cycle 2. 90% CI of T/R within 80-125%

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 28, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
