Trial overview

Official title: A single centre, single dose, open-label, randomized, 2-part, 2-way crossover study to determine the bioequivalence of levocetirizine oral disintegrating tablet given with water and without water compared to levocetirizine immediate release tablet in healthy Japanese male subjects

Trial description: This study will be an open-label, randomized 2-way cross-over study to evaluate bioequivalence study between levocetirizine ODT and levocetirizine IRT in healthy Japanese male subjects. Approximately 48 subjects will participate in this study to receive a single dose treatments of levocetirizine ODT 5 milligram (mg) or levocetirizine IRT 5 mg. In Part 1, subjects will randomized in 1:1 ratio (12 in each Period) in Period 1 and 2 to receive single dose of levocetirizine ODT 5 mg with water or single dose levocetirizine IRT 5 mg with water in fasted state. In this part, comparison of bioavailability of levocetirizine ODT and levocetirizine IRT when taken with water in the fasted state will be assessed. In Part 2, subjects will be randomized in 1:1 ratio (12 in each Period) in Period 1 and 2 to receive single dose levocetirizine ODT 5 mg without water or single dose levocetirizine IRT 5 mg with water in fasted state. In this part, comparison of bioavailability of levocetirizine ODT without water and levocetirizine IRT with water in the fasted state will be assessed. There will be at least a 5-day wash out period between the intervention periods. The duration of each subject’s participation in each part will be approximately 7 weeks from screening to follow-up.
