Protocol summary

Study aim
Administration of test (generic) and reference (brand) products to healthy subjects Comparison of bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of two products Evaluation of interchangeability of two products
Design
All subjects signed an informed consent form approved by the Shahid Beheshti Medical University. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive either test or reference product in each period. This study was a single-dose, randomized, and crossover. The 2 phases of study were separated by a 2 weeks washout period. After an overnight fast for 12 h, the volunteers received 80 mg of either formulation, taken with 200 mL of water. 5 mL of blood samples were obtained just before drug administration and at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 24 hr after that. Drug plasma concentrations were analyzed using a sensitive and selective HPLC method with ultraviolet detector. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and compared.
Settings and conduct
This study was a single-dose, randomized, and crossover. All subjects signed an informed consent and got information about the drug name and its adverse effects. In each period, the subject received either test or reference products with a wash-out period in between. The study was performed at School of Pharmacy, Shahid Beheshti Medical University.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
In order to randomize, in this study, random allocation rule has been used. For this purpose, first a total sample size of the candidates who met the inclusion criteria was determined and then randomly assigned a number of 13 of them to the first group who use the test drug using the table of numbers. We assign the other 13 persons to the second group who receive the reference medicine. Then, in the second period, the group that received the test drug will receive the reference drug and the other group will receive the test drug
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
The study was performed in two periods. Each subject received either test or reference product in each period. Subjects and the physician did not inform about the administered type of the product in each period.

Description
Receiving test formulation (generic product) In this study, subjects received one febuxostat tablet in each period. In the first period of the study, half of subjects received one 80 mg tablet (product of Chemidaru company). Blood samples were collected during 24-hours after after drug administration. َAt predetermined time (14 time points) 5 mL blood samples were collected. After that drug concentration was analysed by HPLC method. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and compared.
