About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Balanced, Randomized, Two-treatment, Two-period, Two-sequence, Single-dose, Crossover, Bioequivalence Study Comparing Minocycline Hydrochloride 135 mg Extended Release Tablets (Containing Minocycline Hydrochloride 135 mg) of OHM Laboratories, USA. (A Subsidiary of Ranbaxy Pharmaceuticals Inc., USA) With SolodynTM Extended Release Tablets (Containing Minocycline Hydrochloride 135 mg) of AAI Pharma, Inc. in Healthy, Adult, Male, Human Subjects Under Fed Condition

The study was conducted as an open-label, balanced, randomized, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence, single-dose, crossover, bioequivalence study comparing Minocycline hydrochloride extended release tablets 135 mg manufactured by OHM Laboratories Inc. with SolodynTM extended release tablets 135 mg manufactured by AAI Pharma, Inc Wilmington, NC 28405 and manufactured for Medicis, The Dermatology Company Scottsdale, AZ 85258 in healthy, adult, human, male subjects under fed conditions.

Read the detailed description

Test for drugs of abuse (opiates and cannabinoids) in urine and breath test for alcohol were carried out prior to admission in each period of the study. Following an overnight fast of at least 10 hour, a high-fat high-calorie breakfast was served to the study subjects.

Thirty minutes after start of this breakfast, a single oral dose of minocycline hydrochloride extended release tablet 135 mg of either test or reference investigational product was administered during each period of the study, along with 240 mL of drinking water at ambient temperature under low light condition and under supervision of trained study personnel.

During the course of the study, safety parameters assessed were vital signs, clinical examination, medical history and clinical laboratory safety tests (hematology, biochemical parameters, serology and urine analysis) at baseline. Adverse event monitoring was done throughout the study. Laboratory parameters of hematology and biochemistry (except blood glucose and cholesterol) were repeated at the end of the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Minocycline hydrochloride in people with Healthy, run by Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of Minocycline (time frame: 0-96 hrs). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Dec 2014.
