Protocol summary

Summary
This randomized, single-dose, two-way, crossover study is conducted to compare the relative bioavailability of two formulations of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir tablets under fasting conditions in 24 healthy adults male volunteers. In each study period, a single 90/400 mg dose is administered to the subjects following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours. The test formulation is ledipasvir/sofosbuvir 90/400 mg tablets manufactured by Sobhan Medicine Trade Development (SMTD) Company and the reference formulation is HARVONI® (ledipasvir/sofosbuvir) 90/400 mg tablet manufactured by Gilead. The subjects will receive the test products and the reference product in two periods; the order of administration will be according to the dosing randomization schedule. There will be a 7-day interval between treatments. Venous blood (3 ml) for the determination of ledipasvir (LP), sofosbuvir (SF) and the metabolite of SF in plasma is sampled before dosing and at 0.25, 0.5, 0.7, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 24, 48, and 72 hours after dosing (a total of 17 samples per profile). Criteria for the evaluation include the time course of the plasma concentrations of LP, SF and SF metabolite over the 72 h after the administration of the products as summarized by the area under the curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-inf), the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), time to reach Cmax (Tmax) and plasma half-life (t1/2). Statistical analysis is performed to evaluate the relative bioavailability of the test formulation to that of the reference product.

Purpose
Health service research
Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Males, 18-50 years of age (inclusive). 2. The subject is able and willing to provide written informed consent. 3. The subject is available for the entire study period and is willing to adhere to protocol requirements as evidenced by written informed consent. 4. The subject has stable residence and telephone. 5. Good health as determined by lack of clinically significant abnormalities in health assessments performed at screening. Exclusion criteria: 1. History of allergy or sensitivity to ledipasvir/sofosbuvir, or history of any drug hypersensitivity or intolerance which, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the safety of the subject or the study. 2. Significant history or current evidence of chronic infectious disease, system disorder or organ dysfunction. 3. Presence of gastrointestinal disease or history of malabsorption within the last year. 4. Presence of a medical condition requiring regular treatment with prescription drugs. 5. Use of pharmacologic agents known to significantly induce or inhibit drug-metabolizing enzymes within 30 days prior to dosing. 6. Receipt of any drug as part of a research study within 30 days prior to dosing. 7. Donation or significant loss of whole blood (480 ml or more) within 30 days prior to dosing.
