RESUMEN
The Global CRO Council for Bioanalysis (GCC) was formed in September 2010. Since then, the representatives of the member companies come together periodically to openly discuss bioanalysis and the regulatory challenges unique to the outsourcing industry. The 4th GCC Closed Forum brought together experts from bioanalytical CROs to share and discuss recent issues in regulated bioanalysis, such as the impact of coadministered drugs on stability, some differences between European Medicines Agency and US FDA bioanalytical guidance documents and lessons learned following recent Untitled Letters. Recent 483s and agency findings, as well as issues on method carryover, were also part of the topics discussed.

The aim of the present study was to compare the bioavailability of doxycycline (CAS 564-25-0) from two different doxycycline hyclate (CAS 24390-14-5) capsules (Monodoks 100 mg capsule as test preparation and 100 mg capsule of the originator product as reference preparation) in 24 healthy male subjects. The study was conducted according to an open-label, randomised two-period cross-over design with a wash-out phase of 16 days. Blood samples for pharmacokinetic profiling were taken up to 72 h post-dose, and doxycycline plasma concentrations were determined with a validated HPLC method with UV-detection. Maximum plasma concentrations (Cmax) of 1,715.1 ng/ml (test) and 1,613.3 ng/ml (reference) were achieved. Areas under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC(0-infinity)) of 28,586.5 ng x h/ml (test) and 29,047.5 ng x h/ml (reference) were calculated. The median tmax was 1.88 h (test) and 2.00 h (reference). Plasma elimination half-lives (t1/2) of 16.49 h (test) and 16.75 h (reference) were determined. Both primary target parameters AUC(0-infinity) and Cmax were tested parametrically by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the 92.39 %-103.53% (AUC(0-infinity)) and 98.45%-111.74% (Cmax). Bioequivalence between test and reference preparation was demonstrated since for both parameters AUC and Cmax the 90% confidence intervals of the T/R ratios of logarithmically transformed data were in the generally accepted range of 80 0%-125%.
