    Notizen: Abstract Simulations were conducted to address the question of whether metabolite data are required for bioequivalence evaluation of immediate release formulations with drugs exhibiting linear pharmacokinetics and first-pass effect. Plasma level-time profiles were generated for parent drug and metabolite using relevant rate constants obtained from a bivariate normal distribution and designated random error. Simulation results showed that the need for metabolite data (Cmax) in the assessment of bioequivalence depends on the relative variability between the absorption process of the drug and first-pass route for metabolite(s). The importance of metabolite Cmax data in the evaluation of rate of availability is clearly demonstrated for drugs with a high degree of intra-subject variation in the first-pass metabolism compared to the absorption process of the drug. Under such conditions, a wider confidence interval was found for the metabolite rather than parent drug. Opposite results were obtained when the intra-subject variance was high for drug absorption relative to first-pass effect. Discrepancies were observed for the scenarios in which the elimination pathway of the metabolite is more variable than the absorption process of the drug. The simulation results were in agreement with real bioequivalence data. It is thus recommended that, in the absence of the information on the relative variability of absorption and first-pass process, both parent drug and metabolite data be included for documentation of bioequivalence, should the metabolite(s) play an important role in the determination of efficacy and safety of the drug.

    Notizen: Abstract Purpose. The goals were to evaluate the usefulness of Cmax/AUClqc, ratio of the maximum plasma drug concentration to the area under the plasma concentration-time curve to the time of the last quantifiable concentration, in bioequivalence testing and to explore the use of exposure as a replacement for the concepts of rate and extent of drug absorption. Methods. The bioequivalence of products differing in both rate (ka) and extent (F) of absorption was assessed under conditions similar to those encountered in a typical trial. A one-compartment model drug with first-order absorption (rate constant = ka) and elimination was used. Variability was introduced in all model parameters using Monte Carlo techniques. The results were expressed in terms of the probability of declaring bioequivalence in a cross-over trial with 24 subjects using Cmax/AUClqc, AUClqc, and Cmax as bioequivalence measures. Results. The outcome of a bioequivalence trial was shown to depend on the measure. Cmax/AUClqc reflected changes in ka, but not in F. AUClqc showed dependence on F, but virtually no dependence on ka. For Cmax, a 3- to 4-fold increase in ka and a concomittant 20% decrease in F, as well as corresponding changes in the opposite directions, resulted in bioequivalent outcomes. Conclusions. It was concluded that use of Cmax/AUClqc should be discouraged and that defining bioequivalence in terms of rate and extent of absorption has major problems. The goal of bioequivalence trials should be to assure that the shape of the concentration-time curve of the test product is sufficiently similar to that of the reference product. To this end, the use of “exposure” rather than “rate and extent of absorption” concepts is encouraged.

    Notizen: Abstract Purpose. To compare the effectiveness of various metrics which evaluate bioequivalence in the early phase of concentration-time profiles. Methods. Two-period crossover trials were simulated with increasing assumed ratios of the true absorption rate constants of the two formulations, and with various kinetic models. Kinetic sensitivities (KS) and standard errors (SE) of the various metrics were recorded and the percentage of trials accepting bioequivalence (the statistical power) was evaluated. The principal metrics included the partial AUC (AUC P) the intercept obtained by linear extrapolation of the ratios of the lower over higher concentrations (C) measured for the two formulations (I L /H), and the ratios of intercepts extrapolated from logarithmic C/ time values of the two products (M log). For comparison, also properties of C maxand an ideally evaluated measure (Id) were determined. Results. M logshowed generally the highest statistical power and KS, and also the largest SE, closely followed by I L /H. Partial AUC exhibited lower power and KS, but also smaller SE than the intercept procedures. The three methods had much higher power, KS and SE than C max. These comparisons were maintained over various kinetic conditions and experimental designs. The effective evaluation of bioequivalence in the early phase of studies is assured with 3 (or more) measurements until the population average peak of the reference formulation. Conclusions. The three principal methods assess bioequivalence very effectively in the early phase of a concentration-time profile. M loghad the highest statistical power, closely followed by IL /Hand then by partial AUC.

    Notizen: Abstract Purpose. To determine favourable sampling conditions for assessing bioequivalence by the comparison of partial AUCs in the early phase of concentration-time profiles. Methods. Two-period crossover trials were simulated. They assumed a wide range of the ratios of absorption rate constants of the test (T) and reference (R) formulations (kaT/kaR). Averages and standard deviations of the corresponding ratios of simulated partial AUCs (AUCpT/AUCpR) were determined together with the statistical power of assessing bioequivalence, i.e., the percentage of simulated trials in which bioequivalence was declared. Results. The power for stating bioequivalence was high when AUCP was recorded until the earlier rather than the later of two peaks in each subject. Similarly, power was comparatively high when AUCP was measured until the time of the reference peak instead of multiples of this time. Power was high also when AUCp was determined until the fixed true, population mean time of the reference formulation instead of multiples of this time. The pattern for the kinetic sensitivity parallelled that found for the power, while the standard deviations changed generally in the opposite direction. Conclusions. The effectiveness (power) of evaluating bioequivalence in the early phase of concentration-time profiles by partial AUCs generally decreases when the duration for measuring the metric is extended. Among the investigated designs, determination of partial AUCs until the earlier of two peaks in each subject is the most powerful.

    Notizen: Abstract The estimation of bioequivalency using metabolite data was investigated for immediate release formulations with drugs exhibiting linear pharmacokinetics and no first-pass effect. This was accomplished by generating parent drug and metabolite plasma level profiles assuming formation and excretion rate-limited pharmacokinetic models with absorption rate constants obtained from bivariate normal distributions and designated random errors. Simulation results indicated that bioequivalence determination using C maxof parent drug and metabolite was independent of the metabolite models as evaluated by confidence interval approach. However, a clear difference with respect to the outcome of bioequivalence evaluation arises depending upon the utilization of C max values for the parent drug and metabolite. The major reason for this disparity was attributed to the minimal effect of the absorption process for the parent drug on the formation of the metabolite. This phenomenon results in an apparent lower intrasubject variability for C max of the metabolite and, in turn, a tighter confidence interval for C max of the metabolite in comparison with the parent drug. The simulated results have been found to be in agreement with the bioequivalency data for acetohexamide, allopurinol, procainamide, and sulindac. In all cases, the interval of the 90% confidence limit for C max of the metabolite is always smaller than that of the parent drug, regardless of the drug pharmacokinetics and the level of error contained in the data.

    Notizen: Abstract The partial area method was investigated for evaluation of equivalency in the rate of absorption of immediate release formulations. The applicability of the method was demonstrated with four drugs with different pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic characteristics. The confidence interval approach currently employed for bioequivalence determinations was applied to the relevant absorption parameters, including C max and partial AUCs. The method was found to be more discriminating than C max and/or T max in the evaluation of the absorption rate of drugs. The cutoff time or point for partial AUC calculation may vary with the type of drug under study, depending on its clinical use and onset of action. The method was shown to be useful in the assessment of rate of absorption in bioequivalence studies.

    Notizen: Abstract The determination of the area under the concentration–time curve (AUC) is the method most commonly used by regulatory agencies to assess extent of drug absorption after single-dose administration of oral products. Using simulations, several approaches toward measuring the actual area, in whole or part, were tested. In addition, the performance of the peak concentration (C max), usually taken as a measure of the rate of absorption was assessed evaluating extent. Model scenarios for drugs with typical mean characteristics and statistical distributions were investigated. Using different kinetic models of disposition, the time course of the drug concentration in plasma was simulated. Intraindividual and interindividual variability and assay error were modeled using Monte Carlo techniques. The accuracy, precision, and ease of use of the various measures of extent were evaluated, and statistical power analyses were performed. Among the measures tested, the most reliable were the AUC computed up to the time of the last quantifiable concentration, without extrapolation, and C max. However, being also sensitive to rate, C max as a measure of extent is of limited potential.
