Comparative assessment of the absorption of a generic formulation of 75 mg 4-[1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2- naphthalenyl) ethenyl] benzoic acid capsule against the innovator 75 mg 4-[1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2- naphthalenyl) ethenyl] benzoic acid capsule conducted under fed conditions in healthy volunteers.
A single dose, randomized, blinded, pharmacokinetic study of a generic formulation of 75 mg 4-[1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2- naphthalenyl) ethenyl] benzoic acid capsule in a 2 way crossover comparison against the innovator 75 mg 4-[1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2- naphthalenyl) ethenyl] benzoic acid capsule conducted under fed conditions in healthy volunteers.

Summary
The objective of this study is to evaluate the bioequivalence of the test (new) formulation 75 mg 4-[1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2- naphthalenyl) ethenyl] benzoic acid capsule relative to that of the reference formulation following oral administration of a single dose of 75 mg 4-[1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2- naphthalenyl) ethenyl] benzoic acid capsule in healthy subjects under fed conditions.

Interventions
Single dose, crossover study design whereby each participant receives the test formulation of 1 x 75 mg 4-[1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2- naphthalenyl) ethenyl] benzoic acid capsule on one occasion and the innovator formulation of 1 x 75 mg 4-[1-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2- naphthalenyl) ethenyl] benzoic acid capsule on one occasion with each dose separated by a one week washout period. The intervention for this trial is the test capsule formulation. No water is allowed for 1 hour prior to dosing until 1 hour after dosing (except for the water consumed with each dose). Participants are required not to eat for 10 hours before receiving a standardised high fat content meal and to fast for approximately 4 hours after each dose. The high fat content meal will consist of 2 eggs fried in butter, 2 slices of white toast, 120g hash brown patties, 2 slices of bacon and 240mL of whole milk comprising of approximately 800 to 1000 calories (approximately 50% of total caloric content of the meal derived from fat). This test meal will derive approximately 150, 250, and 500 600 calories from protein, carbohydrate, and fat, respectively. Bathroom visits will be supervised to ensure no unauthorized water or food intake and for personal safety. Participants will be confined at the Clinical Site for 12 hours prior to dosing to ensure compliance and for 24 hours after dosing. Participants will be monitored for adverse events throughout the study. Standard meals will be consumed at the Clinical Site with no additional food intake allowed. The actual meals provided will be determined based on the menu in operation at the time of study conduct. As a guide the lunch and dinner meals will consist of a medium sized serving of meat, vegetables and dessert with fruit available in the evening. A vegetarian option may be available. The meals will not contain any chocolate or citrus products. Alcohol breath testing and dipstick drugs of abuse tests will be performed upon each participant reporting to the clinical site 12 hours prior to dosing. Screening procedures including laboratory tests and medical examinations will be completed to assess the health of the participants. Study exit procedures will be completed within one week after receiving the last dose. Each dose will be taken orally with 240 ml of water at ambient temperature. Medication must be swallowed whole and a mouth check will be conducted to ensure that the medication has been taken as directed.
