About this study

The study was conducted toinvestigate whether the bioavailability of 3 mg Glimepiride Tablet Manufactured by PT. Harsen Laboratories was bioequivalent to the reference product, 3 mg Amaryl® Tablet Manufactured by PT. Aventis Indonesia Pharma, Indonesia.

Read the detailed description

The study was conducted following an oral administration of one tablet of the test drug (3 mg Glimepiride Tablet) or one tablet of the reference drug (3 mg Amaryl® Tablet ). Blood samples were drawn before dosing (0 h) and at 15, 30, 45 minutes, and 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, and 30 hours after drug administration. The entire subjects were given 60 mL of 20% glucose solution to minimize hypoglycemic effects at 15, 30, 45 minutes, and 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75 and 4 hours after drug administration. Following a washout period of one week, this procedure was repeated using the alternate drug. The plasma concentrations of glimepiride were determined by means of LC-MS/MS system. The LLOQ is 1.99 ng/mL of glimepiride. The pharmacokinetic parameters used in this study were area under the concentration-time curve of glimepiride from time zero to 30 hours (AUCt), area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinite (AUCinf), maximum concentration (Cmax), time required to reach the maximum concentration (tmax) and the elimination half life (t½).

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 9 inclusion and 15 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 21 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Indonesia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) (time frame: before dosing (0 hour) and at 15, 30, 45 minutes, and 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, and 30 hours after drug administration). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05468879, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 21 Jul 2022.
