RESUMO
Purpose: Estradiol valerate (Progynova®) is used as hormone therapy to supplement estrogen deficiency. This study aimed to assess the bioequivalence of an estradiol valerate tablet and its generic form, under fasting and fed conditions. Methods: A randomized, open-label, single-dose, 2-period crossover study was conducted on healthy postmenopausal Chinese female volunteers under fasting and fed conditions. For each period, the subjects received either a 1 mg tablet of estradiol valerate or its generic. Blood samples were collected before dosing and up to 72 hours after administration. Plasma levels of total estrone, estradiol, and unconjugated estrone were quantified using a validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method. Results: A total of 54 volunteers were enrolled in this study. The primary pharmacokinetic parameters, including Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞, were similar for the two drugs under both fasting and fed conditions, with 90% confidence intervals for the geometric mean ratios of these parameters, all meeting the bioequivalence criterion of 80-125%. A total of 48 adverse events (AEs) were reported in the fed study compared with 24 AEs in the fasting study. Conclusion: Estradiol valerate and its generic form were bioequivalent and well tolerated under both fasting and fed conditions.

Purpose: Suramin is a multifunctional molecule with a wide range of potential applications, including parasitic and viral diseases, as well as cancer. Methods: A double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled single ascending dose study was conducted to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of suramin in healthy Chinese volunteers. A total of 36 healthy subjects were enrolled. All doses of suramin sodium and placebo were administered as a 30-minute infusion. Blood and urine samples were collected at the designated time points for pharmacokinetic analysis. Safety was assessed by clinical examinations and adverse events. Results: After a single dose, suramin maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of the last measurable concentration (AUClast) increased in a dose-proportional manner. The plasma half-life (t1/2) was dose-independent, average 48 days (range 28-105 days). The cumulative percentages of the dose excreted in urine over 7 days were less than 4%. Suramin can be detected in urine samples for longer periods (more than 140 days following infusion). Suramin was generally well tolerated. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were generally mild in severity. Conclusion: The PK and safety profiles of suramin in Chinese subjects indicated that 10 mg/kg or 15 mg/kg could be an appropriate dose in a future multiple-dose study.

BACKGROUND: SCT510 is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is intended as a candidate biosimilar of bevacizumab that is approved for various metastatic cancers.Please confirm change in wording to match definition for VEGF belowYes. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the pharmacokinetics profiles, safety, and immunogenicity of SCT510 to bevacizumab (Avastin®) in healthy Chinese males. METHODS: This was a single-center, double-blind, parallel-group phase I study. A total of 84 participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive a single 3 mg/kg infusion of either SCT510 or bevacizumab and followed up for 99 days. Primary endpoints were area under the serum concentration-time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC0-∞), area under the serum concentration-time curve from time 0 to last quantifiable concentration (AUC0-t), and the maximum observed concentration (Cmax). Secondary endpoints included safety and immunogenicity.Kindly check and confirm the edit made in the article title.Yes. RESULTS: A total of 82 subjects completed the study. Geometric means ratios (GMR) for AUC0-∞, AUC0-t, and Cmax were 0.88, 0.89, and 0.97, respectively, for SCT510 versus bevacizumab (USA). The 90% confidence intervals for GMRs of AUC0-∞, AUC0-t, and Cmax were all within the prespecified criteria (80-125%). No adverse events (AEs) led to study termination, and no serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported. None of the anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) identified were found to be neutralizing antibodies (NAbs), and only one subject from the SCT510 group tested positive for the ADA at the day 99 visit. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that the pharmacokinetics, safety, and immunogenicity of SCT510 were equivalent to bevacizumab (Avastin®). As a proposed biosimilar drug to bevacizumab, SCT510 was well tolerated in healthy Chinese males. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION: NCT05113511.

A single-dose, open-label, randomized, two-period crossover-design study was conducted to evaluate the bioequivalence of the reference and test formulations of mifepristone tablets. Each subject was randomized at the beginning to receive a 25-mg tablet of the test or the reference mifepristone under fasting conditions during the first period, then received the alternate formulation during the second period following a 2-week washout period. A validated high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method was used to determine the plasma concentrations of mifepristone and its two metabolites (RU42633 and RU42698). Fifty-two healthy subjects were enrolled in this trial, 50 of whom completed the study. The 90% confidence intervals for the log-transformed Cmax , AUC0-t , and AUC0-∞ fell within the accepted 80%-125% range. Throughout the study period, a total of 58 treatment-emergent adverse events were reported. No serious adverse event was observed. In conclusion, the test and reference mifepristone were bioequivalent and well tolerated under fasting conditions.

SHR-1222, a novel humanized monoclonal antibody targeting sclerostin, has been shown to induce bone formation and decrease bone resorption at a single dose ranging 50-400 mg in our previous phase 1 trial. This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation phase 1 trial, which further investigated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of multiple ascending doses of SHR-1222 in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis (POP). A total of 105 women with POP were enrolled and randomly assigned. Twenty-one received placebo and eighty-four received SHR-1222 sequentially (100 mg QM, n=4; 200 or 300 mg QM, n=20; and 400 or 600 mg Q2M, n=20). The most common adverse events included increased blood parathyroid hormone, increased low-density lipoprotein, increased blood alkaline phosphatase, increased blood cholesterol, back pain, and arthralgia, the majority of which were mild in severity without noticeable safety concerns. Serum SHR-1222 exposure (Cmax,ss and AUC0-tau,ss) increased in a greater than dose-proportional manner. Following multiple doses of SHR-1222, the bone formation markers (terminal propeptide of type I procollagen, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, and osteocalcin) increased in a dose-dependent manner, whereas the bone resorption marker (ß-C-telopeptide) was downregulated. Accordingly, BMD gains in the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck were observed. The maximum BMD increase from baseline at the lumbar spine was detected in the 300 mg QM cohort (14.6% vs. 0.6% in the placebo group on day 169). Six (6/83; 7.2%) subjects developed anti-SHR-1222 antibodies with no discernible effects on PKs, PDs, and safety. Thus, multiple doses of SHR-1222 showed an acceptable safety profile and dose-dependent plasma exposure in women with POP, and could improve their BMD rapidly and prominently by promoting bone formation and inhibiting bone resorption. These findings further support SHR-1222 as a potential alternative agent for the treatment of POP.

BACKGROUND: Domperidone has long been used as a prokinetic agent in the treatment of epigastric distress symptoms. This study aimed to provide adequate evidence for registration approval of a new generic dry suspension formulation of domperidone by comparing the safety and pharmacokinetic profiles between the test and branded reference formulation in the context of fasted and fed condition. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was designed as a randomized, open-label, single-dose, two-period, two-treatment crossover study. 32 and 28 eligible healthy subjects were enrolled in the fasted and fed study, respectively. Each subject was randomly assigned to receive either the test or reference formulation in the first period, followed by a 1-week washout period and dosing of the alternate formulation in the second period. A series of blood samples were collected at scheduled timepoints within 48 hours after administration during each treatment period. Plasma concentrations of domperidone were determined by validated HPLC-MS/MS. Pharmacokinetic parameters, including Cmax, tmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, and T1/2, were acquired based on the concentration vs. time profiles by non-compartmental analysis using WinNonlin software. Then the geometric mean ratios (GMR) of Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ between the two formulations and corresponding 90% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for bioequivalence determination. Safety was assessed as routine. RESULTS: The two formulations showed similar pharmacokinetic profiles. Under fasted condition, the GMR and corresponding 90% CIs of AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, and Cmax were 101.48% (96.79 - 106.38%), 101.17% (96.66 - 105.90%), and 104.61% (96.73 - 113.14%), respectively. Under fed condition, the GMR and corresponding 90% CIs were 105.46% (99.19 - 112.12%), 104.21% (98.19 - 110.61%), and 112.78% (103.64 - 122.73%), respectively, for AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, and Cmax. All values fell within the accepted bioequivalence range of 80 - 125%. Both the test and the reference products were well tolerated without any serious or unexpected adverse reactions. CONCLUSION: Pharmacokinetic bioequivalence was established between the two dry suspension formulations of domperidone in healthy Chinese subjects. Both products were safe and well tolerated.

AIMS: The aims of this study were to evaluate and compare the pharmacokinetic profiles and bioequivalence of two tablet formulations of methylprednisolone (test formulation: Zhejiang Xianju Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., China; reference formulation: Medrol, Pfizer Italia SRL) in healthy Chinese subjects under fasting and fed conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Subjects were randomly allocated to either the fasting group or the fed group and also to one of two sequences (test-reference or reference-test), according to which they received a single 16-mg dose of the test or reference methylprednisolone tablet in the study periods. Blood samples were collected pre dose and at intervals up to 16 hours after administration. Plasma methylprednisolone concentrations were determined using a validated liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method. The safety of the medications was monitored throughout the study. The primary pharmacokinetic parameters measured were Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞. RESULTS: A total of 56 subjects were enrolled, and all completed the study. The 90% confidence intervals for Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞, measured under both fasting and fed conditions, fell within the acceptable range for bioequivalence of 80 - 125%. Analysis of variance showed that there were no signiï¬cant differences in the primary pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞) between the test and reference formulation measured under both fasted and fed conditions. No serious or unexpected adverse drug reactions occurred during the study period. CONCLUSION: The test methylprednisolone 16 mg tablet produced in China is bioequivalent to the reference formulation (Medrol) in healthy Chinese subjects measured under both fasting and fed conditions. Both formulations were well tolerated by all study participants.

AIMS: This clinical study was conducted to evaluate the impact of rifampicin on the pharmacokinetics of fuzuloparib. METHODS: In this single-centre, single-arm, open-label, fixed-sequence study, healthy male subjects took a single 50 mg dose of fuzuloparib on two separate occasions: the first was on Day 1 as monotherapy, and the second was on Day 12 after oral administration of rifampicin 600 mg once daily for 8 days. Series of blood samples were obtained before and after fuzuloparib administration at different time points: pre-dose, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours post-dose. All samples were examined using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. PK parameters were estimated by using a non-compartmental method with Phoenix WinNonlin software. Safety was assessed by monitoring for changes in vital signs and laboratory tests, physical examinations, and incidences of adverse events (AEs). RESULTS: A total of 16 Chinese male subjects were enrolled. Of these, 16 and 15 cases were evaluable for PK analysis following administration with fuzuloparib alone and pretreatment with rifampicin, respectively. Pretreatment with rifampicin resulted in a statistically significant reduction in the systemic exposure to fuzuloparib. The treatment ratio and 90% confidence intervals (CIs) for AUC0-∞ and Cmax were 0.10 (0.095-0.115) and 0.32 (0.281-0.365), respectively. A single administration of fuzuloparib after multiple oral dosing of rifampicin was well-tolerated, without severe AEs. CONCLUSION: The exposure of fuzuloparib was dramatically decreased when pretreated with rifampicin. Strong CYP3A4 inducers should be avoided during fuzuloparib treatment.

Ravidasvir (RDV) is a novel oral hepatitis C virus NS5A inhibitor. This study aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of RDV and the drug-drug interactions between RDV and ritonavir-boosted danoprevir (DNVr) in healthy adults. In the 1st study, healthy volunteers were administered single oral doses of 100, 200, and 300 mg of RDV and 200 mg once daily for 7 days. The 2nd study was a randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled sequential design (day 1 for 200 mg of RDV alone, day 7 for 100 mg/100 mg of DNVr, day 13 for 200 mg of RDV plus 100 mg/100 mg DNVr, followed by 200 mg of RDV once daily with 100 mg/100 mg of DNVr twice daily for 10 days). The results showed that RDV exposure increased in a dose-proportional manner following a single dose with no evidence of accumulation with multiple doses. Coadministration with DNVr (100 mg/100 mg, twice daily) resulted in a 2.92-fold and 1.99-fold increase in minimum plasma concentration at steady state (Cmin,ss) and area under the concentration-time curve at steady state (AUCτ) of RDV, respectively. With coadministration of RDV, maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 h (AUC0-12) of DNV increased 1.71-fold and 2.33-fold, respectively. We did not observe any significant changes in ritonavir exposure. Both single and multiple doses of RDV with or without DNVr were well tolerated. The favorable pharmacokinetic and safety results support ravidasvir's continued clinical development and treatment. (The studies described in this paper have been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under identifiers NCT03430830 and NCT03288636.).

PURPOSE: This study compares the pharmacokinetic and safety profiles between a new generic and a branded reference formulation of amitriptyline hydrochloride tablets, and assesses the bioequivalence of the two products in healthy Chinese volunteers to obtain sufficient evidence for the marketing approval of the generic drug. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A randomized, open-label, two-period crossover study (clinicaltrials.gov, NCT03646526) was conducted under both fasting and fed conditions in healthy Chinese volunteers (24 subjects/condition). Eligible subjects randomly received a single 25 mg dose of either the test or the reference formulation, followed by a 3-week washout period. Blood samples were collected until 144 h following administration. The pharmacokinetic parameters were acquired based on the concentration-time profiles, including the areas under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC0-t, AUC0-∞), the peak plasma concentration (Cmax), the time to achieve Cmax (Tmax), and the elimination half-life (t1/2). The geometric mean ratios (GMRs) and the corresponding 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of amitriptyline were acquired for bioequivalence analysis, and values of these parameters for nortriptyline were used for comparison of therapeutic outcomes. Safety assessments included laboratory tests, physical examination, vital signs, and incidence of adverse events (AEs). RESULTS: The values of t1/2 and Tmax for amitriptyline were not significantly different between the test and reference products under both fasting and fed conditions (P > 0.05). The GMRs of Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ between the two products, and corresponding 90% CIs, were all within the range of 80% to 125% under both fasting and fed conditions. The test and reference products were well tolerated and did not elicit serious adverse events. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that the generic and reference products were well tolerated by the subjects and bioequivalent, according to the rate and extent of the drug absorption.

BACKGROUND: Cefotetan is highly stable to penicillinase and cephalosporin produced by gram-negative bacteria, and it has strong antimicrobial activity against most gram-negative bacteria, some anaerobic bacteria and streptococcus. The objective of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile and tolerability of single and multiple intravenous doses of cefotetan disodium in healthy Chinese volunteers. METHODS: In this single-center, open-label, dose-escalating study, subjects were randomized to receive a single dose of cefotetan disodium 0.5, 1.0, or 2.0 g administered as a 1 h intravenous infusion. After completion of the single-dose phase, subjects continued into the multiple-dose phase, in which they received 1.0 g cefotetan disodium BID for 7 consecutive days. Plasma samples were assayed by a validated high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and analyzed statistically. Tolerability was assessed based on physical examinations, vital signs, laboratory tests, and subject interviews. RESULTS: After intravenous administration of single doses of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 g cefotetan disodium, the pharmacokinetics of cefotetan were as follows: Cmax was 69.49±12.10 µg·mL-1, 132.03±22.56 µg·mL-1 and 237.75±42.12 µg·mL-1, respectively; AUClast was 278.29±51.13 µg·mL-1·h, 543.25±92.44 µg·mL-1·h and 1003.8±172.39 µg·mL-1·h, respectively; AUC∞ was 284.42±50.76 µg·mL-1·h, 551.38±95.83 µg·mL-1·h and 1020.18±181.19 µg·mL-1·h, respectively; t1/2 was 4.21±0.83 h, 4.39±0.53 h and 4.27±0.74 h, respectively; CL was 1.81±0.33 L·h-1, 1.86±0.32 L·h-1 and 2.02±0.38 L·h-1, respectively; Vd was 10.80±1.89L, 11.78±2.20L and 12.25±1.99L, respectively. In the multiple-dose study, the pharmacokinetics of cefotetan were as follows: Cmax,ss was 147.58±22.71 µg·mL-1; Cmin,ss was 12.92±3.70 µg·mL-1; Cavg was 45.10±7.78 µg·mL-1; AUCτ,ss was 541.15±93.36 µg·mL-1·h; AUC∞ was 612.06±114.23 µg·mL-1·h; t1/2 was 4.30±0.63 h; CL was 1.90±0.35L·h-1; Vd was 8.91±1.57L; DF was 300.92±33.28%; Accumulation Index was 1.17±0.05. No serious adverse events were reported. Adverse events were generally mild. CONCLUSION: Cefotetan disodium showed favorable tolerability in this study. The Cmax and AUCs of cefotetan disodium demonstrated dose-dependent pharmacokinetic characteristics after single dose over a dose range (0.5-2.0 g) in healthy subjects, whereas the t1/2 was independent of dose. Except for Vd, there was no difference in other pharmacokinetic parameters between multiple and single administration.

Objective: Pharmacokinetic (PK) similarity between biosimilar candidate LRG201902 and European Union-sourced liraglutide reference product (Victoza®) was evaluated. Safety and immunogenicity were also assessed. Methods: This single-dose, randomized, open-label, 2-period crossover study (CTR20192342) was conducted in thirty-eight healthy adult male subjects. Volunteers were randomized 1:1 at the beginning to receive a single 0.6 mg dose of Victoza® or LRG201902 by subcutaneous injection during the first period. Following 8 days washout period, all subjects received the alternate formulation during the second period. Blood samples were collected up to 72 h after administration. The primary pharmacokinetic endpoints were AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, and Cmax. Pharmacokinetic similarity was achieved if 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of the geometric mean ratios (GMRs) of AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, and Cmax were within the range of 80-125%. Other pharmacokinetic parameters including Tmax, t½, and λz were also measured. Safety profile and immunogenicity data were collected from each subject. Results: Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ were similar between the two groups. GMRs of Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ were 113.50%, 107.21%, and 106.97% between LRG201902 and Victoza® respectively. The 90% CIs for the GMRs of Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ were all within the PK equivalence criteria. Mean serum concentration-time profiles, secondary pharmacokinetic parameters (Tmax, t½, and λz) were comparable between groups. Treatment-related adverse events were reported by 27.8% and 23.7% subjects in the LRG201902 and Victoza® arms, respectively. All post-dose samples were detected negative for anti-drug antibodies. Conclusion: This study demonstrates pharmacokinetic similarity of LRG201902 to Victoza® in healthy subjects. The safety and immunogenicity profiles were similar for the two products.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: A fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet of melitracen/flupentixol has been widely used for depression. The purpose of this study was to assess the safety profile and the relative bioavailability of two FDC products containing 10 mg melitracen and 0.5 mg flupentixol from two different manufacturers, in order to acquire adequate pharmacokinetic evidence for registration approval of the test formulation. METHODS: The study was designed as a single-dose, randomized, open-label, 2-period crossover study under fasted or fed conditions in healthy Chinese subjects. Twenty-four subjects (16 men and 8 women) were selected for fasted study, and another 24 cases (16 men and 8 women) were in fed study. Each subject was randomized at the beginning to receive either a single dose of the reference FDC or the test FDC tablet during the first period. Following two-week washout period, all subjects received the alternate formulation during the second period. Blood samples were collected up to 144 hrs after administration. Pharmacokinetic parameters, including Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, t½, CL/F, and Vd/F were acquired based on the time versus concentration profiles. Then, the geometric mean ratios (GMR) and corresponding 90% CIs were calculated for the determination of bioequivalence analysis. Safety assessment included changes in vital signs and laboratory tests, physical examination findings, and incidence or reports of adverse events (AEs). RESULTS: The present study has clearly indicated the test and the reference FDC products are bioequivalent in terms of rate and extent of drug absorption. GMR of Cmax, AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞ for both flupentixol and melitracen between the two formulation FDC products, and corresponding 90% CIs, were all within the range of 80% to 125% under fasted or fed conditions. Both the test and the reference FDC products indicated good tolerance in all volunteers. Chinese Clinical Trials Registry identifier: CTR20171256.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: This study was performed in healthy Chinese subjects to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic characteristics of a novel injection formulation of dexlansoprazole in the context of single and multiple administration, compared with the original lansoprazole injection. METHODS: Helicobacter pylori-negative healthy volunteers were recruited, and 70 participants were enrolled into five dosing groups (seven males and seven females in each group), including 15 mg once daily (qd), 15 mg every 12 h (q12h), 30 mg qd and 30 mg q12h of dexlansoprazole treatment for 5 days, as well as 30 mg q12h of lansoprazole treatment for 5 days. Blood samples were collected at scheduled time spots postdose on day 1 (first dose) and day 5 (last dose). Twenty-four-hour intragastric pH was continuously monitored on day 0 (baseline) and days 1 and 5. Dexlansoprazole and S-lansoprazole in human plasma were determined by validated chiral liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were determined by a non-compartmental method using Phoenix WinNonlin software. Safety assessment included changes in vital signs and laboratory tests, physical examination findings, and incidence or reports of adverse events. RESULTS: The half-life (t½) and clearance (CL) of dexlansoprazole were 1.76-2.06 h and 4.52-5.40 L/h, respectively, while the t½ and CL of S-lansoprazole were 0.87-1.02 h and 34.66-35.98 L/h, respectively. No drug accumulation after repeated administration was noted. Administration of lansoprazole 30 mg resulted in higher area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to the last measurable concentration (AUCt) of dexlansoprazole than that of dexlansoprazole 15 mg (p = 0.026). Zero to 24 h after q12h multiple dosing, median and mean intragastric pH, percentage of time with the intragastric pH above 4.0 [TpH ≥ 4.0(%)] and percentage of time with the intragastric pH above 6.0 [TpH ≥ 6.0(%)] in the dexlansoprazole 15 mg q12h group were 6.07 ± 0.61, 5.70 ± 0.76, 83.58 ± 12.34, and 53.70 ± 17.06, respectively, which was similar to the lansoprazole 30 mg q12h group, i.e. 6.15 ± 0.62, 5.88 ± 0.67, 87.26 ± 12.08 and 57.00 ± 16.35, respectively. A weak positive correlation between dexlansoprazole AUCt and baseline-adjusted TpH ≥ 4.0(%) over 0-24 h was observed, with Pearson correlation coefficients of 0.437 (p = 0.029), while no correlation was observed between AUCt and baseline-adjusted TpH ≥ 6.0(%) over 0-24 h. CONCLUSION: Every 12 h intravenous dosing of dexlansoprazole up to 30 mg for 5 days was safe and well-tolerated in healthy Chinese subjects. Every 12 h dosing of dexlansoprazole 15 mg has a comparable effect of gastric acid inhibition as lansoprazole 30 mg q12h. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT03120273.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics and safety between two vinorelbine formulations [a new oil-in-water emulsion formulation (ANX) versus a previously marketed solution formulation (Navelbine)] in Chinese patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Method: This was a single-center, randomized, open-label study. Eligible patients aged 18-70 years who had histologically or cytologically confirmed NSCLC were enrolled. In cycle 1, the patients alternatively received the two formulations (30 mg/m2, given as a 10-min infusion) with a 7-day interval. Samples for pharmacokinetic analysis were taken during cycle 1. For all subsequent 21-day cycles (maximum four cycles), ANX was administered on days 1 and day 8. Bioequivalence analysis was performed on Cmax, AUClast, and AUCinf. The safety profiles and anti-tumor effects were also determined. Results: From March 2013 to January 2015, 24 patients were enrolled and 20 were eligible for pharmacokinetic evaluation. The 20 subjects in the pharmacokinetic analysis set had a median age of 61 years (range, 37-70 years), and 15 patients were male (75%). Mean vinorelbine Cmax values for ANX and Navelbine were 1,317.40 and 1,446.30 ng/mL, respectively. Corresponding AUClast values were 797.08 and 924.26 ng·h/mL, respectively. AUCinf values were 830.14 and 957.16 ng·h/mL, respectively. Treatment ratios of the geometric means were 90.00% (90% CI, 83.22-99.07%) for Cmax, 86.92% (90% CI, 80.91-93.37%) for AUClast, and 87.44% (90% CI, 82.08-93.16%) for AUCinf. These results met the required 80-125% bioequivalence criteria. The most frequently reported adverse events after vinorelbine administration were neutropenia, leucopenia, neutropenic fever, and constipation. Conclusion: At therapeutic dosage levels, pharmacokinetic behavior and safety profiles were similar for both formulations. Chinese National Registry Code: ChiCTR-IPR-15005856.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: Chinese patients have been enrolled in multiple Phase III trials of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor olaparib (Lynparza); however, the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of olaparib has not been investigated in this population. This two-part, open-label Phase I study was, therefore, carried out to determine the PK and safety profile of olaparib (tablet formulation) in Chinese patients with advanced solid tumours as monotherapy and in combination with paclitaxel (NCT02430311). METHODS: The PK profile of olaparib 300 mg (twice daily [bid]; Cohort 1) as monotherapy after a single dose and at steady state, and 100 mg (bid; Cohort 2) as monotherapy (single dose and at steady state) and in combination (at steady state) with weekly paclitaxel (80 mg/m2) was assessed during Part A. Patients could continue to receive treatment (monotherapy, Cohort 1; combination therapy, Cohort 2) in Part B, which assessed safety and tolerability. RESULTS: Twenty and 16 patients were enrolled into Cohorts 1 and 2, respectively. Steady-state olaparib exposure increased slightly less than proportionally with increasing monotherapy dose and inter-patient variability was high. A statistically significant decrease in olaparib exposure was seen when given in combination with paclitaxel. Discontinuation due to adverse events (AEs) was rare and haematological AEs were more common in patients receiving combination treatment. CONCLUSIONS: The PK and safety profile of olaparib monotherapy in Chinese patients is consistent with that seen previously in Western and Japanese patients, and the recommended Phase III monotherapy tablet dose (300 mg bid) is suitable for use in this population.

Physalin B (PB) is one of the major constituents of Physalis alkekengi var. franchetii, a well-known Chinese traditional herb. In this study, we demonstrated for the first time that PB exhibits significant antiproliferative and apoptotic activity in A549 human lung cancer cells in a concentration-dependent and time-dependent manner. Flow cytometric analyses indicated that PB-induced G2/M arrest through down-regulation of cyclin B1 and cell division control protein cyclin-dependent kinase 1, and up-regulation of p21. The reduction in the level of cyclin B1/cyclin-dependent kinase 1 complex down-regulated oxidative phosphorylation multisubunit activity to reduce mitochondrial energetic homeostasis. Moreover, defects in mitochondrial ATP synthesis and mitochondrial membrane potential were found in PB-treated cell lines. These abnormalities led to an increase in intracellular superoxide and apoptosis. Thus, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial energetic homeostasis, PB demonstrates potent antitumor activities and may be developed as an alternative therapeutic agent against non-small-cell lung cancer.

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL USAGES: Fructus Alpiniae oxyphyllae (A. oxyphylla) is an important medicinal plant that is used not only as an edible fruit, but also as an important traditional medicine for benefiting cognitive performance and alleviating a wide spectrum of diseases. Such as; warming kidney, securing essence and arresting polyuria, as well as warming the spleen and stopping diarrhea and saliva. AIMS: The purpose of this review is to provide updated, comprehensive and categorized information on the traditional uses, phytochemistry and pharmacological research of A. oxyphylla in order to explore their therapeutic potential and establish a solid foundation for directing future research. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All the available information on A. oxyphylla was collected via electronic search (using Pubmed, SciFinder, Scirus, Google Scholar and Web of Science) and additionally a number of unpublished resources, (e.g. books, Ph.D. and M.Sc. dissertations, government reports). RESULTS: Phytochemical research on A. oxyphylla has led to the isolation of components such as essential oils, terpenes, diarylheptanoids, flavones, nucleobases and nucleosides, steroids and others. Crude extracts, fractions and phytochemical constituents isolated from A. oxyphylla showed a wide spectrum of in vitro and in vivo pharmacological activities like neuroprotective, anti-diarrheal, anti-diuretic, anti-neoplastic, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, viscera protective and anti-diabetic activities. Neuroprotective, anti-cancer, anti-diarrheal and anti-diuretic effects are major areas of research conducted on A. oxyphylla. CONCLUSIONS: Modern pharmacological studies have supported many traditional uses of A. oxyphylla, including nervous system, urinary system and gastrointestinal system disease. There was convincing evidence in experimental animal models in support of its neuroprotection, secure essence, reduce urination, and anti-carcinogenic effects. However, all the reported pharmacological activities were carried out at pre-clinical level and the authors urge further investigation in clinical trials about these therapeutic fields of A. oxyphylla.

Physalins are the major steroidal constituent of Physalis plants and display a range of biological activities. For this study, a rapid and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry method was developed for the simultaneous quantification of six physalins. Specifically, it was for the quantification of physalin A, physalin B, physalin D, physalin G, 4,7-didehydroneophysalin B, and isophysalin B in rat plasma and rat intestinal bacteria. After a solid-phase extraction, analytes and internal standards (prednisolone) were separated on a Shield reverse-phase C18 column (measuring 3 mm × 150 mm with an internal diameter of 3.5 µm) and determined using multiple reactions in a monitoring mode with a positive-ion electrospray ionization source. The mobile phase was a mixture of 0.1% formic acid in water (A) and acetonitrile (B) and was used at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min. The intra- and interday precisions were within 15% with accuracies ranging from 86.2 to 114%. The method was validated and successfully applied to pharmacokinetics and stability studies of six physalins in rat plasma and rat intestinal bacteria, respectively. The results showed that physalin B and isophysalin B could not be absorbed by rats, and rat intestinal bacteria could quickly transform physalins.
