Protocol summary

Study aim
Examining the bioequivalency of the Isotretinoin 20 mg capsule manufactured by Tasnim Company with brand sample(PoakkytaH®)
Design
A single dose, not blinded, randomized, bioequivalence clinical trial on 24 healthy volunteers.
Settings and conduct
The number of 24 healthy in the age range of 18-55 years and the Body Mass Index range of 18-30, who are voluntarily selected through public notification. One tablet is taken fasting and blood is taken at 16 times point. One week later, the process is repeated for the brand medicine
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
The weight range of participating candidates should be between 60-100 kg; All candidates must be non-smokers; Candidates should be healthy in terms of physical examination, ECG and the following laboratory tests: Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Red and White Blood Count, MCV (Mean Body Volume), MCH (Mean Body Hemoglobin), Routine Urinalysis, Total Cholesterol, Triglyceride, Total Proteins, albumin, uric acid, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), urea, creatinine and fasting blood glucose Volunteers who have agreed to an informed consent form.
Intervention groups
After taking a Isotretinoin 20 mg capsule from domestic company, 3 milliliters of blood will be collected from the volunteer in 16 times intervals for 72 hours. one week later, the process is repeated for a brand sample tablet. The drug concentration is measured in plasma
Main outcome variables
Studying the Drug pharmacokinetic parameters including measuring the plasma concentrations of drugs for brand and test products, determining the desired and important pharmacokinetic parameters in bioequivalence studies, AUCs, Tmax, Cmax, T1/2

Randomization description
To randomly assign people in two groups, 24 cards with numbers 1 to 24 will be used in closed envelopes that are arranged irregularly. Each candidate will pick up an envelope after entering the study, and numbers 1-12 will be in group A and numbers 13-24 will be in group B. Group A will receive intervention 1 and group B will receive intervention 2, and after the first period, the interventions of the both groups will change for the second period.

Description
Intervention group: This study examines the bioequivalence of the Isotretinoin capsule produced by a domestic company with a foreign brand sample. We have only one intervention group and there is no control group. The intervention group, which includes healthy, fasting volunteers, will receive a single dose, 20 mg tablet manufactured by the pharmaceutical company Tasnim and PoakkytaH® brand, in two 72-hour periods with an interval of one week, on the day of the study. And in 16 different time periods up to 72 hours after taking the medicine, blood samples will be taken from the volunteers in the amount of 3 ml each time, that is, a total of 48 ml within 72 hours. The training that will be given to the volunteers includes avoiding the consumption of drinks containing alcohol and xanthine and other interfering drugs in the prescription drug from 48 hours before the start of the study until the end of the study.
